similar to: rails on low memory vps

Greetings all, In looking at the API for ActiveRecord::Associations::ClassMethods there doesn''t appear to be a way to rename an association. In doing some refactoring I am replacing one table with two but want to preserve the old associations names, e.g. I want to be able to still say build_type.artifacts instead of having to use the new table name: build_type.build_type_artifacts.

So, do I really want to upgrade to 0.10.1? Seems like a lot of people are having issues. Joe

For a medium-sized website, does one machine for database server (either mysql or postgres) and another for the web server (lighttpd) sound ok? How much traffic could I expect to handle? (I know it depends on the application, but some rough estimates would be nice) Joe

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 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/.

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 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

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

I have a few forms that I''d like users to fill out. The results of the form will be sent to a few addresses. What''s the least painless way to do this and keep everything DRY? There''s no database involved. Ideally, I''d like to email the form questions with the answers inline. Seems like using ActionMailer and separate email views would be overkill in this

If you''re trying to get multiple rails apps going on a single domain using lighttpd (example: http://joevandyk.com/typo_1 and http://joevandyk.com/typo_2), check out http://pinkpucker.net/articles/2006/01/31/getting-multiple-rails-sites-going-on-one-domain-using-lighttpd for a working lighttpd and the change you need to make to config/environment.rb to get it to work. Hope someone finds

Hi -- (First time posting to the list...) I''m trying out Rails on my Mac (OS X Panther, 1.6 G5). It seems... kinda slow? I''ve even run it with FastCGI and the response time is still painfully slow. Is this just me? Is mod_ruby any better than FastCGI? Or is it rails? Thanks in advance! -- joshua

I created some scaffolding for an Address model and an Addresses controller. When running the functional tests for the addresses controller, I get this exception: "NameError: uninitialized constant Addres" The exception seems to start from this function: def list @address_pages, @addresses = paginate :address, :per_page => 10 end I''m guessing pluralization bug?

Ok, so now Users need to be associated with Organizations. I''ve created a migration and added a ''organization_id'' column to the users table. I want the default organization_id to be the first Organization. So I have :default => Organization.find(:first). But it''s complaining about not being able to find the constant ''Organization''. Any

I had to add a check box indicating that a user accepted certain terms to a page. So, I put in a ''validates_acceptance_of :terms'' line into the appropriate model and added a checkbox to my view. Everything works as expected in my web browser. However, my functional tests still pass and I didn''t add or change anything to them. I was expecting to have to add another

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

Is the information in http://wiki.rubyonrails.com/rails/show/HowtoUploadFiles on caching images still the best way on how to cache images that are served from the database? I haven''t added time information to my image table yet, and the images are sent after every single page view (even if it''s been downloaded already). Joe

All of a sudden, I''m getting this error: 1) Error: test_index(AccountControllerTest): RuntimeError: The number of parameters does not match the number of substitutions. /home/joe/projects/tanga/trunk/config/../vendor/rails/actionpack/lib/action_controller/assertions.rb:92:in `assert_redirected_to''

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

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

So, what''s the status of this project? I''m a little confused. The documentation at http://backgroundrb.rubyforge.org seems out of date. It refers to http://svn.devjavu.com/backgroundrb/tags/release-0.2.1, which doesn''t work. All I want is a way to easily set up tasks that should run periodically. Some stuff should run every 10 seconds, some stuff once a day, etc.
