Or maybe a better way to ask the question is, is there a preferred version of Ubuntu to use with Ruby

I know similar topics have been covered before, but I''d like to get a more up-to-date Ruby developer''s opinions. (Please note that I''ve 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

Hello. given the fact that there are numerous different hosting offers with different parameters and technologies, I would like to ask if there are some heuristics or rules of thumb existing to determine the demand of an own rails application? Input parameters would be something like: page impressions/day, average site size (in KB), average complexity of the rails logic of a site example 1 -

I''ve heard good things about Litespeed but all the documentation I''ve found doesn''t reflect the new 3.3 version. The older 2 and 1 versions are just so different. I''ve gone down the road with the old docs and it''s always a dead end. I''d be happy to pay or trade code or some kind of programming favors for some help in this area. I''ve

After a bad experience trying to get even the simplest Rails application running at Lunarpages, I''m moving to Slicehost.

While we''re on the subject, does anyone have any opinions as

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

First, I''m trying to do the legwork with utilizing all 4 together because many people say it''s a good combination to use.

I'm looking for suggestions as to a good general method of remote-logging services such as nginx or anything else which doesn't support syslog natively. I'm aware that there's an nginx patch, and we're evaluating this. It may be the way we fly. However there are other tools which may not have a patch for which remote logging would be useful. If there's a general soution
