It doesn't even say something like "Tracing project..."?

Does it work ok if you just run it like that on it's own (i.e. just
:>Ruby project.rb )?

Does 'project.rb' print anything?  Maybe you could 'puts "hello"' at the
top to see if it actually executes?

Does it work on another platform (i.e. Linux rather than Windows)?
