Use the controller name 'Greetings' consistently.

Moreover, there seems to be a bug in Rails 2.3.0: After editing the view file
apps/views/greetings/hello.html.erb in Vim, WEBrick ships the outdated content
from the backup file apps/views/greetings/hello.html.erb~ instead of the
intended content. Only when the 'tilde backup' file is not present, the browser
shows the correct contents (both Konqueror and Firefox; you can even add a
_different_ hello.html.erb~ to show completely different stuff).

This bug does not occur in Rails 2.2.2.

WARNING: Make sure that you do not have any "tilde backup" files in +app/views/(controller)+, or else WEBrick will _not_ show the expected output. This seems to be a *bug* in Rails 2.3.0.
The URL will be +http://localhost:3000/greetings/hello+. I'll wait for you to be suitably impressed.
INFO: With a normal, plain-old Rails application, your URLs will generally follow the pattern of http://(host)/(controller)/(action), and a URL like http://(host)/(controller) will hit the *index* action of that controller.
