Oops! Google Chrome could not connect to 0.0.0.0:3000

Hello,

I'm hoping someone can help. I was following along with the installing devise section on Rails Development and I got the message "Oops! Google Chrome could not connect to 0.0.0.0:3000" on the browser, which i'm assuming is a server issue on terminal. So I typed "rails s" to get the server back up and running and I got this message.

$ rails s Usage: rails new APP_PATH [options]

Options: -r, [--ruby=PATH] # Path to the Ruby binary of your choice # Default: /usr/local/rvm/rubies/ruby-2.1.0/bin/ruby -m, [--template=TEMPLATE] # Path to some application template (can be a filesystem path or URL) [--skip-gemfile] # Don't create a Gemfile -B, [--skip-bundle] # Don't run bundle install -G, [--skip-git] # Skip .gitignore file [--skip-keeps] # Skip source control .keep files -O, [--skip-active-record] # Skip Active Record files -S, [--skip-sprockets] # Skip Sprockets files -d, [--database=DATABASE] # Preconfigure for selected database (options: mysql/oracle/postgresql/sqlite3/frontbase/ibm_db/sqlserver/jdbcmysql/jdbcsqlite3/jdbcpostgresql/jdbc) # Default: sqlite3 -j, [--javascript=JAVASCRIPT] # Preconfigure for selected JavaScript library # Default: jquery -J, [--skip-javascript] # Skip JavaScript files [--dev] # Setup the application with Gemfile pointing to your Rails checkout [--edge] # Setup the application with Gemfile pointing to Rails repository -T, [--skip-test-unit] # Skip Test::Unit files [--rc=RC] # Path to file containing extra configuration options for rails command [--no-rc] # Skip loading of extra configuration options from .railsrc file

Runtime options: -f, [--force] # Overwrite files that already exist -p, [--pretend] # Run but do not make any changes -q, [--quiet] # Suppress status output -s, [--skip] # Skip files that already exist

Rails options: -h, [--help] # Show this help message and quit -v, [--version] # Show Rails version number and quit

Description: The 'rails new' command creates a new Rails application with a default directory structure and configuration at the path you specify.

You can specify extra command-line arguments to be used every time
'rails new' runs in the .railsrc configuration file in your home directory.

Note that the arguments specified in the .railsrc file don't affect the
defaults values shown above in this help message.

Example: rails new ~/Code/Ruby/weblog

This generates a skeletal Rails installation in ~/Code/Ruby/weblog.
See the README in the newly created application to get going.

Anyone got any ideas?

Thanks,

Joe

You should go to your app folder after you create your rails app with 'rails new my_app'

you need to type;

cd my_app

and run 'rails s' on that path.

Are you on Windows by any chance? If so there's a teacher's note that mentions to use the IP 127.0.0.1 instead of 0.0.0.0 on Windows.
