i jumped on a deal for netfirms hoping to use their service for my first rails app. however, their tutorials are lacking and i am having trouble kicking off my rails application. here are the directions they gave me: http://support.netfirms.com/idx.php/26/649/SCRIPTS--APPLICATIONS/article/Ruby-on-Rails-Quickstart-Guide.html but in those directions, it says nothing about configuring the fcgi stuff that other hosting companies have you modify like at hostingrails.com netfirms just basically say create your database, modify the database.yml, create a controller, goto your domainname.com/controller and wallaa, your working in rails! however, it seems not as easy as that. -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.

Since they have a peculiar methodology, to initially get up and running, only someone familiar with their system can help you so I would suggest you contact their support staff.

Check this with them - if they claim to support Rails but actually only support it via CGI then I think you are entitled to a refund. regards Justin Forder --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.
