Hi all, I have deployed my Ruby On Rails application on TextDrive. At first everything seamed to be fine. However, lately, response time of my application is incredible slow. Worse, lately there is also a lot of downtime. I have contacted their support desk, however, they do not respond (at all, or very, very late). Has anyone else these experiences with TextDrive? And if so, what did you do

Hi, I want to allow the downloading of specific file only to authorized user, lets say an MPEG. where do I start? ;-) Thx, Dor. -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.

I do web development outside of work and I have three new projects starting soon from a little brouchureware site to larger applications. I have a personal hosting account with TextDrive that allows me to run 3 domains, this is not going to be big enough to host the apps for my clients. How do other people host Rails sites & apps for their clients? All this talk of VPS solutions etc

I''m looking to host a low-traffic, personal blog. I already have a VPS Linux host with 192MB of RAM. How much memory is need to run a rails app? Considering that memory is scarce, I assuming LigHTTPD will be a better choice than apache. What about MySql? Do I need more memory to host that or should I consider sqlite instead? Is anyone else hosting a Rails a rails app on a host with

I wonder if it wouldn?t have been faster to just backport the app to Perl 5.16? How hard could it be? It?s not like Perl 5.16 is a hopelessly lame and incapable language. The

Anyone got any tips for running Rails (w/ either webrick or lighttpd/fcgi) on a VPS with a pretty small amount of memory (like 64MB memory and 64MB swap). Thanks, Joe

I am disappointed about the (seeming) lack of Unicode support in Rails. Is there a howto about working the most important limitations? For example, figuring out the length of an entered word: "???".length() will return 6, not 3. So if there is a maximum number of characters a user is allowed to enter, this won''t work as it should -- it treats strings as byte arrays instead

Hello, I built a simple rxml page that should print the contents of a table in XML. It works perfect localy, using Mongrel. But I have a VPS server with the same data, but running Lighhtpd. There, it returns a blank page.... Is it because of mongrel/lighttpd ? How could I fix that ?? Thanks, Parra -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed... URL:

Hello, I have a working mongrel cluster and want to use Lighty as the frontend webserver. I want ligthttpd to deliver the static content. So I did gem install sendfile --remote Everything installed. But if I run the tests like gem check sendfile --test --debug i get the following error message: Exception `Errno::ENOSYS'' at ./test/test_sendfile.rb:75 - Function not implemented -

Does your *shared* hosting account work without errors? I''m interested in both positive and negative reports. If you are willing, please contribute - name of the hosting service - how long you have used them - your experience ("flawless!", "it''s crap!") You *do not* need to reply saying your VPS service works great. This is about *shared* hosting

To much of my dissapointment, the uptime on my TxD account does not improve. What alternatives do we have for hosting Rails projects on shared accounts? I would love to keep lighttpd and the level of control I have on TxD but wouldn''t like to spend much more (I am currently on the 25$/month plan). I won''t need much support, but I would love to have subversion

Hi All, I''d like to let you know about a new Rails hosting company that provides VPS and dedicated servers preconfigured and optimized to run Lighttpd and Ruby on Rails.

I''m doing a fotolog for a company. It''s expected to manage about 100k of connections per day and about 1500 concurrents connections. What hardware should I buy to manage those numbers of connections? I''m planning to use slackware + lighttpd + fastcgi, but perhaps we will have to reuse some scripts in php, in that case I would use slackware + apache + mod_php + fastcgi

Hi all, With a rails app running under lighttpd, we''ve recently stopped using lighttpd''s URL rewriting in favour of letting Rails'' routes do their job. However, under proper testing, we now see the application slowing down after a period of time (a couple of days); pages take increasingly longer to load over time. This is fixed by a lighttpd restart. Could this

Greetings, Does anyone have experience with Rails VPS hosting? I''m basically looking for a hosting reseller option so I can have control of my clients domains and hosting. I''m looking for something easy to use; although I like learning it all, and am learning a lot, I am most definitely not a command line linux user type as of yet. The one that I''ve looked at

Hi there I''m planning to build "The Perfect Rails/Debian/Lighttpd Stack", published by Ezra Zygmuntowicz and Sean Schertell at http://brainspl.at/rails_stack.html I''m wondering what sort of constant maintanance that setup would incur. What actions have be regularly performed to keep this setup healthy and secure under normal conditions? Alder

Recently there has been a lot of fuss about the ease of Rails deployment. People made various claims, such as "I''ve deployed PHP, Java, (insert something else here) and Rails. Rails is by far the most painful." and "Java deployment (with Tomcat) is easier." I have no experience with Java deployment. But I have a friend who has worked on several high-end software

Hello, I''m not a developer myself, but I work for a hosting company that tries to cater to the needs of developers and basically right now I am trying to create a hosting platform that will be perfect for ruby developers. This is a linux VPS service and I create the base templates to make the system look however i want it after install. I was hoping some of you could give me

I''m looking for a virtual private server to run a RoR site accessing a database on a different machine. This is a small application - basically a form to add records, and a few summary screens. What are the minimal requirements for a vps? Thanks. -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.

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
