Hi guys, Is there a way of starting Webrick as services on Windows, or some other trick to get rid of console windows? And, beyond that, is Webrick able to do with a havy demand site? Cheers, eduardo.
Hey eduardo, Can''t say much about the demand part of your question, but you might want to check out win32utils -- http://rubyforge.org/projects/win32utils/ -- there''s a library for creating and managing windows services that i have used to package damagecontrol for windows.

Hi, Eduardo,
even while i''m pretty new to rails and this is my first post to the
list:
For production quality and scalability of your RoR-app FastCGI seems to
be the way to go.
You''ll find information on
http://wiki.rubyonrails.com/rails/show/FastCGI and since you seem to be
on windows maybe you would like to test the One-Click Ruby For Apache:
http://rubyforge.org/projects/rubyforapache
Best regards
Jan Prill
PS: Hello to everybody and thanks for this great framework - Keep up
the good work! I''m coming from the Java World and really can''t
understand the bashing that is going on on theserverside.com for
example. There''s so much great open source out there - let''s
just learn
from each other.

I put a shortcut in my Windows startup that looks something like this: C:\Documents\Tools\ruby\bin\rubyw.exe c:\dev\ruby\srgrails\script\server Start in: c:\dev\ruby\srgrails\ Not quite a Windows service (there are options for that as well), but it works quite nicely. -- Chris Brooks http://www.chrisbrooks.org

I know that. I''m using FastCGI (with Apache2) in my learning/development (i''m a newbie too!) machine but, I was wondering that not all client''s installation will have Apache (nor Lighttpd) so, an alternative could be Webrick running as a service (like Apache does). Silently and away from the client''s eyes... I''m talking about Windows installations, of course... Thanks anyway, for your quickly response. Regards, eduardo.
Hi Chris, sounds as a good solution... Thanks, eduardo.
