Re: OT Web servers and ISP -and Rails

Thanks Phil
I have run into a gotcha with the ISP which will not provide  Rails 3 on
a shared server.
Can someone please enlighten me as to why not. What are the problems?

Apologies for OT but google so far doesn't help.
I had a similar situation & I just started using vps instead.

I think most ISPs are still using Rails 2 because they see no need to
upgrade & are also wary of the swiftness of the Rails/Ruby releases.
Plus there is no definitive Rails 3 per se to speak of.

So, your only choice is to go with either a dedicated server, a
vps/cloud solution or a specialist Rails outfit. VPS/cloud is by far the
cheapest & most flexible IMO & works for me.

Cheers,

   Phil...

I would tend to agree that there is no definitive rails 3. Each, even minor change, virtually wrecks some part of previous coding and now they recommend preparing for Rails 4 which will trash some Rails 3 coding.
Not happy Jan! Be great if the devs got something working and left it alone.
Is Rails 2 safe enough to rely on?

On the subject of Dedicated or VPS, I found Ventra-ip which provides Rails on shared server and today is releasing pricing on Dedicated and VPS. Prices are w-a-y below AussieHQ, Uber and others.
I've seen no reports of problems with them. Has anyone o list used Ventra?

Strange thing with Fedora 18.
Apache or rather localhost:3000 works a treat with Rails but Drupal 7 on localhost/devsystem collapses when trying to install a live site copy. Mysql in Fedora 18 shuts down while building the database from an .sql file. Pig of a thing.
