Taking the dog for a walk
For a while now I have put off actually having to deploy my Ruby on Rails applications into any environment other than WebBrick, which is perfectly fine for doing demos, prototypes etc.
It has been a while since I actually dug that deep into any system and so I was a bit hesitant about getting started.
But this afternoon I took the plunge. Without much hassle I managed to successfully set up my system with a current Ruby version (which I had to compile first) and Mongrel to run my RoR application. I then plugged mod_proxy into my Apache server and basically was up and running after a really short time.
Old hat to all you techno-geeks out there - but I was pretty chuffed. Not that I need it yet - but tomorrow I may even set up a mongrel_cluster - just for the ride.
