I am unable to install gems on my dreamhost server since it''s just shared hosting. I tried unpacking the ferret gem into vendor/ferret, but to no avail. Also how would I recompile the C extensions for the new platform? Any ideas would be greatly appreciated. Cheers, Simon -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.
Not true. I use dreamhost and I''m able to completely compile my own setup. Here''s how I do it. The following bash script creates your own custom ruby environment, in which you can install whatever addons and gems you want. Then just make sure you have export PATH="$HOME/extra/bin:$PATH" in your .bash_profile script and also make sure your ruby scripts point to $HOME/extra/bin/ruby. --------------------------- #!/bin/sh # remove old stuff rm -rf $HOME/extra/bin rm -rf $HOME/extra/include rm -rf $HOME/extra/info rm -rf $HOME/extra/lib rm -rf $HOME/extra/man rm -rf $HOME/extra/src rm -rf $HOME/extra/ssl mkdir -p $HOME/extra/bin cp $HOME/extra/binbak/* $HOME/extra/bin # create directory for compiling source code mkdir -p $HOME/extra/src cd $HOME/extra/src # download and compile source tarballs wget http://www.openssl.org/source/openssl-0.9.8a.tar.gz tar zxvf openssl-0.9.8a.tar.gz rm -f openssl-0.9.8a.tar.gz cd openssl-0.9.8a ./config --prefix=$HOME/extra make make test make install cd .. wget http://www.fastcgi.com/dist/fcgi-2.4.0.tar.gz tar zxvf fcgi-2.4.0.tar.gz rm -f fcgi-2.4.0.tar.gz cd fcgi-2.4.0 ./configure --prefix=$HOME/extra make make install cd .. wget ftp://ftp.cwru.edu/pub/bash/readline-5.1.tar.gz tar zxvf readline-5.1.tar.gz rm -f readline-5.1.tar.gz cd readline-5.1 ./configure --prefix=$HOME/extra make make install cd .. wget ftp://ftp.ruby-lang.org/pub/ruby/ruby-1.8.4.tar.gz tar zxvf ruby-1.8.4.tar.gz rm -f ruby-1.8.4.tar.gz cd ruby-1.8.4 ./configure --prefix=$HOME/extra --with-openssl=$HOME/extra --with-readline-dir=$HOME/extra make make install cd .. wget http://tmtm.org/downloads/mysql/ruby/mysql-ruby-2.7.tar.gz tar zxvf mysql-ruby-2.7.tar.gz rm -f mysql-ruby-2.7.tar.gz cd mysql-ruby-2.7 ruby extconf.rb --with-mysql-config=/usr/bin/mysql_config make # PLACE CUSTOMIZED DATABASE PARAMETERS HERE: ruby ./test.rb DBHOST DBUSER DBPASS DBNAME DBPORT make install cd .. wget http://sugi.nemui.org/pub/ruby/fcgi/ruby-fcgi-0.8.6.tar.gz tar zxvf ruby-fcgi-0.8.6.tar.gz rm -f ruby-fcgi-0.8.6.tar.gz cd ruby-fcgi-0.8.6 ruby install.rb config ruby install.rb setup ruby install.rb install cd .. wget http://rubyforge.org/frs/download.php/5207/rubygems-0.8.11.tgz tar zxvf rubygems-0.8.11.tgz rm -f rubygems-0.8.11.tgz cd rubygems-0.8.11 ruby setup.rb cd .. gem install rails --include-dependencies On 4/19/06, Simon Wex <simon at tungstenconsulting.com> wrote:> I am unable to install gems on my dreamhost server since it''s just > shared hosting.

I think I figured out the issue. My script was being killed for some reason when I ran it interactively and the ./config didn''t finish correctly. I pipped the output to a file and ran the script in the background with & I''m not sure why this fixed it, but it seems to have so far. -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.
I noticed that Dreamhost actually shut down my script occasionally while I was running it, probably because it ties up the CPU for extensive periods of time. I had to keep trying until it completed successfully. I''m sure this annoys them somewhat, but I don''t have to set up my environment from scratch very often.

And what about RoR applications - FCGIs I have changed shebang location (#!) to my bin/ruby and application didn''t run at all - webrick starts and runs correctlly, but dispatch.fcgi - not Does anybody fixed that case. Nick -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.
