This video is a little out of date. The first thing is that 2.1.6 is not available anymore it's now 2.1.8 but I tried that first and I had problems with 2.1.8 and cmder gave me a message saying 2.2 required so I started the video all over but when I got to the rails install it failed again and said to install the devkit which I had already done so I'm wondering if I installe d it in the wrong place but I think I followed the video exactly. I also had problems with mysql. I double clicked mysql.exe after extracting. A window would open and then quickly disappear. I never saw the special setup screen which I saw in the video.

12,248 PointsI believe it's in the rails track. Jason walks us through installing on mac, pc, and by using a vm. Could have also been a workshop vid. Dig around a bit and you should find it. Hope it works for you!
