cannot run Selenium Ruby Webdriver on IE9 browser

I got the error below when trying to run a Selenium Ruby Webdriver script on IE9 browser, the browser is not launched and below error displayed:

  Selenium::WebDriver::Error::WebDriverError: Unable to find standalone executable
  . Please download the IEDriverServer from http://code.google.com/p/selenium/down
  loads/list and place the executable on your PATH.

 Below are lines of code that I have tried:

  browser=Selenium::WebDriver.for :ie
  @driver.get CONFIG['url']

Please guide me if I need to do more steps on this case to be able to run scripts on IE9 browser with Ruby Selenium Webdriver. Thanks much.

I think the error log is self-explanatory. Going forward IEDriver has to be downloaded separately, as you might be doing for chromedriver till now. A good explanation by the creator here . You can download the driver zip from the link in the error log and add it to your PATH. Read more @ IEDriver
