[Ruby on Rails Series] 1, Development environment preparation: Installation of VMware and Linux

Ruby on Rails is a ruby-based Web development framework that follows the MVC pattern. Using ROR will give you a faster and more rapid web development experience. Compared to Java EE, the framework makes web development faster and more efficient and more agile. With less gossip, you'll see the great charm of the framework behind this series.

This article describes the preparation of the ROR development environment 1:vmware and Linux installation

Step1, pre-installation preparation

While both Ruby and rails support cross-platform operation, the best-in-breed (WWW) works under Linux, so this series wants to be launched in a Linux environment. To not disrupt the legacy ecosystem, we use VMware virtual machines for installing and using Linux. As shown, you need to download the following two software first:

(1) Vmware workstation 10 Beta Download:

Http://www.vmware.com/cn/products/workstation/workstation-evaluation

(2) Scientific Linux 6.X Download (i downloaded the i386 version):

Installation of Step2,vmware

VMware installation Reference The following article can (thank the original contributors, thanks to Baidu, to the same, (laughter)):

After the installation is complete, such as:

Configuration of the Step3,vmware

VMware is a virtual machine (virtual machine is a virtual standalone computer), the virtual machine can be installed on the operating system, such as Linux, before installing Linux, we need to configure the VMware virtual machine environment, please refer to the following documents:

After configuration, you can start Linux operating system for Linux installation, of course, if your computer installed Hyper-V and other virtual machine environment, will be due to conflict error, such as:

The workaround is to open Hyper-V Manager, stop the service on the right, then open a command prompt, enter a line of instructions, and then restart the computer. Refer to below for details:

Installation of STEP4, scientific Linux 6.X

To start Linux for Linux installation, the Linux installation references the following documentation:

Because it is installed on a virtual machine, there is no need to worry about disk data. Then please feel free to install it boldly ~

After installation restart, there is a high-end atmosphere of the Scientific Linux boot screen, chemical particles can not understand the said.

STEP5, testing Linux network functions

For example, open a Linux bring-your-own browser to search rails for testing, as you can see search results:

At this point, VMware and Linux are installed.

Next: Ruby, Rails environment configuration
