Thank you for your answer.
I'm having no problems running Jruby+ GF bem because I don't use it now
:-) . Right now I'm planning my new RoR app  and together with it trying
to improve my RoR windows deployment. JRuby seems to be the best choice
for it, but since I haven't heard much about this solution for windows
I'm curious if it easy as it looks like. I don't want to start using
jruby, wrap some java libraries and then see that it was dead end :-)

Well I'm definitely interestend in GlassFish gem as a Windows Service...

Maybe it's time to start some "Jruby on Rails, the best solution for
your Windows deployment" advertisment campaign? :-)

P.S. I had problem with my path variable so I was unable to run event
jruby from cmd, but puting every signle path in quotes fixed it.
