RAILS_ROOT gives you relative path within the applications it works fine as far as you need the path within rails application.

How about getting absolute path to rails folder?

I found one way, and thats from the ENV hash.

You can use ENV[’PWD’] to find absolute path to the rails folder.
Any other ways ??

Dir.pwd is a better way
