I work at an organization that is very wrapped up in Microsoft products. I am trying to get a test application put in however I''m not sure what to do about the infratstructure. If it were up to me we would put in MySQL and Apache or Lighty, however its not up to me. The easiest way to get an application into production at our company would be to use the existing MS SQL server and IIS

Erwin: We found it''s not worth the time to do this. It won''t work reliably. You''re in for a world of hurt. We''ve given up on the idea after several months of trying (and some great feedback from this list). There are some on this list who claim to have gotten it to work, but that might just be luck. We''re now using Apache on a higher port, and using

After a lot of work (and much promising) I have written instructions on various methods to deploy Rails applications in a Windows environment. For those of you who are not stuck with Windows, this won''t matter too much to you, but I think this is really useful for those in Windows shops. Topics covered: * Serving Multiple Rails Applications on Windows with Apache and Mongrel * Integrate

Hi folks. I have a very small problem which is probably very simple. But I''ve scoured the api and the rails book with no luck. I''m trying to get information about the database definition out of active record.

Hi everybody At work we''ve finally convinced the chief to develop some small project using open source technology. Unfortunately we are deeply involved with Micro$oft technology. That means, windows 2003 server, IIS, MS SQL 2005 and asp. I was thinking about recommending ruby on rails instead of asp, but I''d like to know how well it goes with IIS and MS SQL, because for the

Hi all, as part of adopting Rails in my company I had to go through the hassle of setting up a Rails production environment on Win32 system since we mostly use MS SQL as our database back end and also because we mostly dealing with customers who become green-blue-purple as soon as you mention Unix/Linux and run for the door. I also need to mention that most of our web applications are internal and

The site describing how to set up IIS on Windows 2003 for Rails appears to be down: http://www.bitslapped.nl/articles/2005/06/05/rails-on-windows-2003 Does anyone know anywhere else where this information can be found? -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.

I don''t think there''s a way to do that other than using a proxy (ISAPI_REWRITE) or just a server-side redirect.

anyone been successful with implementing code hints in the Views folder with radrails in eclipses? There is a tutorial out there that suggests you edit the jsp folder (http://www.napcs.com/howto/railsonwindows.html#_Toc111133462) but i think when you add rails, that jsp folder somehow disappears or something. i don''t like that idea anyway, cause i don''t like jsp hints

Hi list, first evening of playing with rails, so please forgive me if I ask something stupid. ;-) I created a User model and tried to use ActiveRecord callbacks to convert the password to sha1 just before saving it. For some reason postgresql gives me a error because the given password is null. To test even further I tried to change :login too, same error happens, :login is empty too. I am sure
