Development Mode on Dreamhost

Rails
1

Anyone know (or know where to point me to) to figure out how to force
Rails into development mode? I’d like to not have to kill dispatch.fcgi
everytime I make a change. My site is not live and I’m just doing
development and testing right now.

Thanks.

you can set:

ENV[‘RAILS_ENV’] = ‘development’

in environment.rb

but you should do all your development locally.

-tak.

Why wouldn’t you do dev and testing locally?

But seriously…
fcgi + dev mode = memory leak, and that hurts everyone on a shared host.

Do your development on your own machine with WEBrick or Mongrel or your
own
Apache + FCGI.

Ok will do. Thanks.
