    I have used CGI::Application and Template::Toolkit. I was trying Rails because of the "hype". I am watching Catalyst but it still seems to be in a state of flux (the recent "which config to use" saga). I am Windows as well so Catalyst is updated a little slower.

    I will probably install it tomorrow and try it. It being Catalyst.

      Run, do not walk, and get Catalyst. Installing it using cpan on windows is a bit of a trick,but, if you add Randy Kobes' ppm repository, it wipes out most of the hard work.

        I meant to do it today, but I fruitlessly gave Rails another try.

        Tomorrow I take the plunge.

        Know any good books that cover catalyst, especially for database driven applications? BTW... long time no see...

  Strange that you even mention connection strings. Take a look at config/database.yml.

    Yes? I know about that. I have changed it to every one they show on the Rails site and more. No go. I can connect normally through Ruby's dbi and return stuff so I know it isn't a problem with Oracle or Ruby...just Rails.
