...read similar threads in this group and read a lot of hosting comparison sites, even contacted both companies and am still having a hard time making decisions. ) After reading about limitations with shared hosting plans, I decided that VPS is the way to go for me. I''ve narrowed it down to Slicehost and Rimuhosting after reading other threads in this forum. (If anyone thinks other VPS is way better, I''d like to hear about it!) Here are my questions. (1) What are your more recent experiences with these two hosting companies, support-wise? (Were they helpful when you needed installat...

After a bad experience trying to get even the simplest Rails application running at Lunarpages, I''m moving to Slicehost. Does anyone have an opinion as to which of their Linux distros to use for a fairly high-traffic Rails site? They offer CentOS, Debian 5, Fedora (10 to 12), Gentoo, Red Hat EL 5, and Ubuntu (8 and 9). While we''re on the subject, does anyone have any opinions as to the relative merits of S...

I''ve used the Slicehost Intrepid instructions (http:// articles.slicehost.com/ubuntu-intrepid) to install a new Ubuntu server with Ruby, Rails and passenger.

...''m trying to do the legwork with utilizing all 4 together because many people say it''s a good combination to use. I already have apache setup (was using it with the PHP version of my site formerly). I''ve installed all gems and dependencies that I need on my slice (using slicehost). I have a fully pushed git repository (master) on github (private git) with one user. For sake of these questions the user on github is called (liveuser). I followed the following guide to setup a user called (gituser) on my slice: http://articles.slicehost.com/2009/5/13/capistrano-series-sett...

Like most, I have a test and a production env. Both are CentOS 5, Ruby 1.8.6, Rails 2.0.2, MySQL 5, and Apache. Both were setup using the same procedure. Except for the hardware (test: Intel, prod: AMD) and memory (test: 512M, prod: 1G), both systems are essentially the same right down to the Rails env. Unfortunately, memory usage is very different for each. The test system has 2 mongrel

I suspect this is not exactly a Ruby/Rails topic but I also suspect that lots of people here have already solved this issue. We have a simple app running on a SliceHost slice and we''d like to backup the database both hourly and daily to an AWS S3 account. I''ve looked around but surprisingly can''t seem to find anything that offers a complete solution for doing this. I was hoping to find a ruby solution but so far nothing. I suspect that i...

Hi, I was wondering if 256MB of RAM is enough to run a ruby on rails server and mysql server. My application does not do any complex queries, but it does deal with quite a lot of data (potentially tables as large as 100MB). The number of concurrent users should be low, never more than 10. Currently I''m serving RoR using Lighttpd via fastcgi. The only thing I''ve changed from the

Hello, This is a question for folks who are using Ubuntu to host your Rails apps. Which version of Ubuntu do you use? Do you use the ''Dapper'' release (6.0.6) perhaps due to the long term support (LTS), or are you using the latest release ''Feisty'' (7.0.4)? Or maybe a better way to ask the question is, is there a preferred version of Ubuntu to use with Ruby

First, this linux is on slicehost and I created and duplicated everything I had from windows on it in terms of what gems it needs. It has every single gem installed that I have on my development machine. The only difference is on windows I don''t need to do a require "x-gem etc." to get my gems to work. Secondly...
