How to start server for site with no /script/server/ script?
I''m a newbie to Rails and can''t get a site working that
doesn''t have a
/script/server scripts.
I setup Ruby on Rails to run on Fedora and created a new website
("myfirstrails"). When I run "./script/server -d" from
within the
"/myfirstrails" folder, WEBrick boots and I can access the site via
http://www.myfirstrails.com:3000.
However, I am trying to migrate an existing rails site to the same
server. This site ("mynewsite") does not have a /script/server/
folder...so I''m not sure how to start the server for it.
It seems like I should be able to start the server globally and then run
any number of sites on it.
Any ideas?

In any case, you can probably copy it in from another Rails app.> > It seems like I should be able to start the server globally and then run > any number of sites on it.You''d need Passenger (or similar) for that.

Re: How to start server for site with no /script/server/ script?
The first thing you should check is that the version of Rails you have installed is the version your target application (the one you''re trying to migrate) is expecting to use. 1) "rails --version" will tell you what you''ve got installed. 2) target_app/config/environment.rb will have a line like: "RAILS_GEM_VERSION = ''2.3.4'' unless defined? RAILS_GEM_VERSION" If these versions match you''re in good shape. The second thing you need to check is that you support the database your target is expecting to use. 1) target_app/config/database.yml will have three lines like "adapter: postgresql", one each for development, test, and production modes. If you support that db you''re in good shape. If you''re in good shape on both counts, you should be able to run: "rails -d db target_app" "cp -R source_dir/target_app/* target_dir/target_app" At which point you should be able to edit the target_app/config/ database.yml to suit, run the migrations, and get on with life...
