Hi all - I'm a noob when it comes to deploying a rails app and my Hosting service providers offer almost no assistance. All the help I've had so far has been misinformation from their Indian 'technical advisers'
I'm pulling my hair out trying to get this thing launched
If anyone could spare 20mins to chat either on this thread or on MSN/ Skype I'd really appreciate it
thanks
If you post specific problems, I’m sure folks here will try to help. You might also check out the deployment group:
http://groups.google.com/group/rubyonrails-deployment
Regards, Craig
Thanks Craig I didn't actually realise there was a deployment group.
I've managed to get the app running on the server now.
In my routes.rb I have set map.root to my homepage controller's index
In deployment mode, I remove public/index.html and my homepage action became the default index path This worked fine in deployment mode but now that I've launched in production mode, the homepage shows a 500 error.
Can anybody advise?
Thanks
Most recent entry to the log, when I visit the homepage:

Rendering /home/thinkers/public_html/thinkers/public/500.html (500 Internal Server Error)
Okay - so I'm guessing now that the problem is with my app and MYSQL
"MissingSourceFile (no such file to load -- mysql)"
I have installed the MySQL 2.7 gem on my domain using the options provided by my host. After rebooting (and reloading) I still have the same issue.
Anyone have any ideas? I'm starting to go bald!
(:o|
600host.net
This is still really stressing me out. If anybody could spare a few minutes to help out I'd really appreciate it.
The problem is that my app cant seem to locate the MySQL gem.
My host have a system in which you load gems automatically by selecting them from a list.
They then explain my gem is stored in a specific directory and I should add a snippet of code to my script to locate it:
here's the text straight from their site:
I've finally got my app running : www.thinkersplayground.com
A new problem has arisen though :S
My app was written in Rails 2.1 but Im running it on Rails 2.2.2 on my host
Previously, all of my routes worked fine, they were all tested and life was kushty.
Here's a sample of my routes.rb file:
map.namespace :private do |private| private.resources :articles, :controller => 'articles', :has_one => :discussion, :member => {:preview => :get, :submitted => :get, :approved => :get, :add_tags => :get, :submit => :get, :publish => :get, :retire => :get, :tag_article => :post}, :collection => {:submitted_articles => :get, :approved_articles => :get, :my_articles => :get, :blueprints => :get}, :shallow => true do |article| article.resources :pages, :controller => 'pages' end
private.resources :authors, :controller => 'authors', :member => {:profile => :get} do | author> author.resources :articles, :controller => 'articles' author.resources :messages, :controller => 'messages' end
private.resources :comments, :controller => 'comments', :member => {:allow => :get, :remove => :get}
When I run rake routes in Rails 2.2.2, only a few of these routes are recognised and so I get a 500 error.
It doesn't notice, for example, edit_private_article_path(@article)
Has routing changed in Rails 2.2 ?
If so, any clues as to how I can fix this?
Thanks Gavin
removed ":shallow => true"
should have spotted that earlier
-duh
