Hi,

I’ve just setup Ruby on Rails using the guide I found at

And was just wondering if it’s possible to host PHP on the same box as  
well !?

I don’t seem to be able to find any info on this so any help would be  
greatly appreciated.

I’m running Apache2 on Ubuntu Linux 5.10 (PPC version)

Thanks

Mic

It certainly is possible. Just try to install both, and change the  
webserver www/htdocs directory to yourapp/public.

I think that will work.

You can host all manner of dynamic and static sites on the same box:  
ruby, php, java,  
perl, cgi, etc. The problem is that, unless you want to make your end  
users put port  
numbers in their urls (e.g. [http://myhost.com:3000/](http://myhost.com:3000/)), you need to have  
something  
responding on port 80 that will internally redirect the request to the  
right app/process.

You can do this using apache’s vhost abilities, mod\_rewrite, mod\_proxy,  
etc. I’m sure  
LigHTTPD has similar capabilities. There’s probably documentation on  
this in the ruby docs  
somewhere, but really, if you’re gonna use Apache, you should spend some  
quality time with  
the apache docs.
