I have installed Ruby-186-26, why is there no usr/local/bin/ruby directory?

When I installed it, I just changed the path to e:\ruby. I often meet
No such file or directory errors. Any idea?

It seems that you have installed Ruby on Windows. Your expectation of
Ruby being in /usr/local/bin indicates that you have cygwin installed.
Obviously we cannot know how and where you have installed Ruby, but I
would look for a ruby.exe on your disk and than create a symlink in
cygwin to /usr/local/bin

Cygwin or Ruby One-Click? That your OS is Windows could be inferred from
your path change to e:\ruby.


If its the one-click installer: you should consider that Windows != *NIX
operating systems (like Mac OS X, or Linux). You'll find a lot of
examples and scripts that are either written by *NIX folk, or are *NIX
specific.

You can't really expect a mix of the Cygwin and One-Click Ruby paths and
permissions to work reliably. Use Cygwin *or* the One-Click.

I installed ruby under c: on windows and it works nicely, including
ruby-gtk on Windows. (A GUI makes me happier on windows)

To be honest, I hate working on windows. Ruby makes my life
easier, but windows is still a p***.
