Does anyone know how long it will be until Dreamhost get’s the Rails 1.1  
install running correctly?

My site has been down since last night at about 7:00 pm (I think).

It’s annoying, and are a lot of others having this problem too?

Thanks.

We are experiencing the same problem on DH today. I’ve contacted support  
and  
they said they are working to quickly resolve the matter. No telling  
when we’ll  
be back up and running though.

Thanks Tom, I have seen those links. As for calling us a help vampire,  
that  
is a little uncalled for.

Thanks,  
John

I followed Josh S.'s advice here:

[http://blog.hasmanythrough.com/articles/2006/03/28/hosts-upgrade-to-1-1-doom](http://blog.hasmanythrough.com/articles/2006/03/28/hosts-upgrade-to-1-1-doom)

i.e.

cd [RAILS\_ROOT]/vendor  
svn export “[http://dev.rubyonrails.org/svn/rails/tags/rel\_1-0-0](http://dev.rubyonrails.org/svn/rails/tags/rel_1-0-0)” rails

and it works for me.

(By the way, I noticed that the host I am on (Garvey) now has the  
RMagick gem installed. That’s something I had been waiting for.)

regards

Justin

I’m paranoid, but I always freeze gems as soon as I have a  
production-ready  
app on a shared host.

That sounds wise. I only had a ‘practice’ app.
