Subject: Re: Using Rails App (Models) in my Ruby script.

Ok I just did a search on Ruby Forums and I think I found what I needed.
Thank Brian for sending me in a right direction.


It also looks like my error was related to Mac OS . I tried same code at 
work on my XP box and it works now.
Damn I thought I was going crazy.

Thanks for the help thou.


for anyone else looking to setup scheduling on a Windows box for a ruby 
script.

Just make your task call
(pass it environment if you want)(and then pass it your great ruby 
script - make sure you use aboslute paths )

ruby c:\path to your great rails app\script\runner c:\my great ruby 
scripts folder\cron.rb
(or whatever you want to call it. I would suggect to use no spaces in 
the folder names - other wise you might need to do fiddle with the extra 
quotes and it's annoying)

Alternatively you can setup a .bat file ( if you want to do some extra 
stuff in windows batch mode - like driving yourself crazy or something)
