Ruby On Rails Webhosting

Post by blymi »

I notice your webhosting supports Ruby On Rails. What version is supported?
And can I install gems etc. as normal? - what sort of control do I get? ruby console?

Cheers, Anthony.

It appears that have Ruby 1.8.7 installed right now, with Rails 2.3.14, and use Phusion Passenger for Apache integration.

You can't install gems to the system, but you could use one of the methods for installing Ruby gems on shared hosting, or run applications with frozen gems.

Since you have SSH access to your shared hosting account, you can explore applications directly there, using whatever tools you prefer. For development, I still recommend using a local environment.
