similar to: Ruby 1.8.4 and Rails 1.0 - safe combo?

I see that the RubyOnRails.com site has migrated to Mongrel with Apache as a front-end proxy. Is that now the/a recommended setup for Rails apps? We''re still using FCGI but I''m always interested to learn more about other folk''s successful deployment choices. Across all of our sites we''re pumping out about 300k pages per day so anything that saves memory or has

I am trying to run instant rails on windows xp SP2. I can get the cookbook and typo sample sites to work with webrick but not with scgi. When i click the start with scgi i get a blank dos window and typing www.mycookbook.com returns Firefox can''t establish a connection to the server at www.mycookbook.com. This suggests that apache is not even running even though the green light is

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

See the graph at http://tinyurl.com/35rnx4 For some time, I''ve been watching the three combinations ruby + rails, ruby + developer, java + hibernate + tomcat using the www.indeed.com job-trend grapher. They have (after a long climb), finally reached parity. Of course, you can pick different combinations and get entirely different results. -- Mike Berrow -- Posted via

This might be obvious to everyone but it is something that i haven''t been able to find an answer to. Do I need to have either scgi/fastcgi/cgi running on either lighttpd/apache for ruby scripts to work? If yes, why? I have installed the scgi server and i can get the service to run, i have also installed the following mod_fastcgi/2.4.2 mod_ruby/1.2.4 Ruby/1.8.2(2004-12-25) mod_scgi,

Hi please help, Id like to get SCGI working with rails. having gone through the instruction its seems straight forward enough, but for one slight snag. mod_scgi.so the one I downloaded seems to be for DOS. no problem, I just download the source and comile it for Solaris, oh oh for some reason it doesn''t compile. So I decided to search the web for a binarie version for Solaris 10

hello. i''d like to share some feelings of mine after a couple of *weeks* intermittent attempts to have rails applications working on windows (XP) with fastcgi performances under apache (2.0). i''d say the software stack i''m using now will be fairly common as more and more new rails developers will join the bandwagon. what is stunning me is the fact that, even if

I''ve seen several postings where FastCGI is being used with RoR projects, yet, most of the material I''ve read (Dave Thomas'' book, online articles, etc) recommend not using FastCGI anymore because it is a dormant project and hasn''t been updated since 2003 (I think???). So, I went out and got Simple CGI instead. It had to be compiled and installed from

Hi, Love Rails... I''m looking for a Production Quality Server that brings the same ease of use as Rails does to web development. I''ve tried TextDrive, and never got it to work. I''m sure there are good reasons why it didn''t work but they are beyond me. I''ve contacted tech support there several times, and it seems that there are so many setups that

Hi all, can you recommend me which web server config to use for developing rails on windows machine. I tried webrick, which is good but it''s annoying because console window is in taskbar for every site running and it have to be started manually. Apache with CGI is to slow and using FastCGI on the other side brings me lot of problems, like randomly not working RoR sites. Any help is

Hi, While learning Ruby and Rails, I decided I just as well learn Linux along the way... It''s been fun, but I''m stuck at one of those exasperating moments... I hope someone can help me :) I installed Ruby 1.8.4 on Fedora Core 4, then Rails, then lighty, and then SCGI. I used yum to install lighty... and it already comes with mod_scgi. I created my first application in

Hello, I am new to Ruby on rails and this is therefore probably trivial. Lets say I have 3 tables - users[id,name, age, ...], interests[id,name,description, ...], and finally a table user_interests[id,user_id,interest_id] to link a user to a set of interests. Now there is no problem to put validates_uniqueness_of :name in the user-model to ensure that I only have one Lenny, but how do I

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

Hello, Ruby on Rails still, as I think, very poor with MS Windows. I make the comparison as a PHP user. In some minutes, I have got Apache running PHP easily. In Ruby On Rails, there is no such breeze. I expect in the future, Ruby on Rails is going to offer something like php4apache.dll to make life easier. As I think, There are three things made PHP popular: 1st, The ease of installation 2nd,
