new project at the same domain

Hi,

just a quick question, is there a way how to run two apps on the same domain? Both for testing purposes. Thank you.

Yes but you most likely want a subdomain:

   http://www.zeroplayer.com/    http://zeekland.zeroplayer.com/

My servers give me a different Apache configuration, and different application folder, for the zeekland. subdomain. Your ISP probably has a control panel for you to add a subdomain, configure its folder, and link it to Apache.

(www is also technically a subdomain, but it's also just an alias for zeroplayer.com.)

Are you wanting something like this:

app1.mydomain.com app2.mydomain.com

or

mydomain.com/app1 mydomain.com/app2

Which one?

I would honestly think about just getting an inexpensive VPS solution from someone like Slicehost. You'll learn a ton more about how Rails works and the fun of deployment and configuration that way.

Plus, it is fun to do sysadmin stuff. :slight_smile:

That sounds like a situation where you’d want to consider a new home. Check us out at http://railsboxcar.com/ if you’re interested in an pre-configured and easy-to-deploy hosting solution for your Ruby on Rails applications.

Cheers,
