Hi,

I am trying to get a site up - the problem is that the application is  
coded using Rails 1.2.6 and the server has Rails 2.3.3. Is it possible  
to get my site working? How do I do it?

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks!  
Vin

You can freeze rails into the app or set RAILS\_GEM\_VERSION in  
environment.rb
