Hi all, The Rails book talks about running Rails under Apache, but is there a (relatively) easy way to deploy it to either Tomcat or JBoss? Is the CGI servlet the only option?

Here''s something that caused me a couple of hours of head-scratching today: Apparently, if your model doesn''t derive from ActiveRecord, it is NOT reloaded for each operation in the development environment. I was working with something that uses a single model per session, and stores its data in the session. I kept wondering why I didn''t see my changes. Finally, I

Hi, I''ve started reading some Java books. Gasp! What makes website development with Java so bad? I haven''t looked at Struts but I''m reading about Hibernate.
