similar to: FastCGI: Apache 1.x or 2 on new Debian System?

Gang- We are getting ready to launch our ROR application; the last item remaining is the deployment platform. For testing, we had used Apache + MOD_FastCGI.

My questions is .. should I go with (1)

I see that the RubyOnRails.com site has migrated to Mongrel with Apache as a front-end proxy. Is that now the/a recommended setup for Rails apps? We''re still using FCGI but I''m always interested to learn more about other folk''s successful deployment choices. Across all of our sites we''re pumping out about 300k pages per day so anything that saves memory or has

Hi, Have been pulling out my hair for the last few days wondering what I''m going to deploy my site onto. I currently have FreeBSD 4.7, Apache 1.3.3, PHP 4 and MySQL 4 running a year-old PHP site.

I''ve got a RoR app that will be going to production soon (in the next month or so) and would like to get some feedback on what kind of web server setup people have had good luck with.

Hello list, I wonder if someone could help me understand the following: I''ve got a managed dedicated server with GoDaddy. Until now, I''ve only hosted PHP applications there. I now need to set it up to host my new beloved Rails application. I asked them to set up apache with mod_proxy_balancer for the mongrel cluster, however, here''s what they told me: *Unfortunately,

I''m having tons of problems with fcgi on apache2. The app didn''t crash over the weekend when it wasn''t used. I ran it this morning and it was fine. It''s an inhouse app so it wasn''t used for 3 days over the weekend. It did however crash today. Does this sound like a bad fcgi setup or just a very buggy fcgi/Apache combo? Charlie Bowman
