Hello, I''m seeking a book on rails deployment (I think a general deployment on nix book can helps too) I need in depth information about Apache, FastCGI, (LightTPD maybe). I was thinking always I know what a web server is! but when I think more deeply about it (after reading Capistrano doc) it seems I need more info about app, web and db servers. stuff like how to config the app server (for ex. managing FastCGI processes), what slave and master db means (I know this but need more info!), how to setup clustering on web server and such things. Do you know where could I find required info? books? online docs? anything useful? Thank you all friends! - Dunnil
I forgot to mention, I come from MS Windows.

[Rails] Rails Deployment: Book recommendation?
I think you are better of using online documentation. For the Apache part itself many like the "Pro Apache" book but deploying Rails is a bit different than the average install.

His original announcement is here: http://brainspl.at/articles/2005/12/09/rails-deployment-configuration-book I expect Ezra will chip in with the latest news on when he expects the beta to be available. This is a fast-moving area, e.g. with the arrival of Mongrel and the Apache load-balancing proxy module, so there has been stuff to cover that didn''t exist at the time of his orginal announcement. regards Justin
Hi, I''m about a month ahead of you. I''m finding ''Agile Web Development with Rails'' (nicknamed AWDWR)to be an excellent read. Supposedly, the second edition is about to come out, so you might want to wait a bit. In regard to Ruby, I read the ''Pickaxe Book'' aka ''Programming Ruby''. Another good book. I''m also from MS Windows XP/Pro and I''m heading towards Apple land. If you pick up AWSWR, give me a ''buzz'', I may be able to save you a bit of time - as there is one ''gotcha'' in it. Good luck (to the both of us), Pat -----Original Message----- From: rails-bounces@lists.rubyonrails.org [mailto:rails-bounces@lists.rubyonrails.org] On Behalf Of Human Dunnil Sent: Tuesday, May 30, 2006 8:27 PM To: rails Subject: [Rails] Re: Rails Deployment: Book recommendation?

You get the whole book, with chapters being incrementally updated from first edition to (draft) second edition content. All of the tutorial section is already in second edition form, and has been through one round of review. The second edition tutorial uses migrations, a bit of Ajax, and integration tests, and avoids the use of techniques that are no longer favoured. Your PDF will continue to be updated throughout the life of the edition (so, for example, my hard copy of the first edition is the first printing, but my PDF of the first edition - which I first got when the first beta was available - is now the PDF of the fourth printing). Hard copy of the second edition is planned for around September. regards Justin

With the new deployment options available I had to postpone a little bit in order to add new content and rewrite some old content. I hope to have an announcement about release sometime soon.

Hi Justin, Thanks for the good advice...I''ll get the PDF version when I finish the book...

Good evening, Just curious... I start WEBrick by entering the command: ruby script/server. When I need to stop it, I simply close the command window. Is there a WEBrick command that will allow me to stop it from running in a more graceful manner? Thanks, Pat
Yup. Ctrl + C Takes about 2 sec to shut down. It actually says so when you start the server.

This may help: I wrote some articles on deploying Rails apps on Windows. They could help get you familiar with some of the ins and outs of Apache + FCGI or Apache + Mongrel for deployment because you''d be working in a familiar environment. You should be able to transfer most of what I have to your *nix environment. http://www.napcs.com/howto/rails/deploy/ On 5/30/06, Pat Lynch <lynchnco@patmedia.net> wrote:> Hi Justin, > Thanks for the good advice...I''ll get the PDF version when I finish the > book... > Cheers, > Pat > > -----Original Message----- > From: rails-bounces@lists.rubyonrails.org > [mailto:rails-bounces@lists.rubyonrails.org] On Behalf Of Justin Forder > Sent: Tuesday, May 30, 2006 9:02 PM > To: rails@lists.rubyonrails.org > Subject: Re: [Rails] Re: Rails Deployment: Book recommendation? > > Pat Lynch wrote: > > > I''m about a month ahead of you.
