For the longest time I had an example rails app up and running without
problem on goDaddy (unless of course you consider 10 second spin up
time a problem).  Anyway, just recently I tried setting up a rails 2.0
app so that I could update my blog and was unable to get it to do
anything.  I''m pretty sure some of the problems include the
''require_gem'' to ''gem'', etc updates.

So, in a roundabout way, what I''m trying to say is that unless this is
a Rails 1.2 app, I''m 99% sure you''re not going to get it
running on
goDaddy.
