My rails application on Debian

Rails
1

Hello! I moved my rails application from win to deb-server (in order
to get more performance) but i don’t know where to place it… What
path/to/folder is accepted? /opt/rails/myapp or /usr/src/myapp or some
other?

Wherever you like. What are you using as a server? Passenger? And is
this for production or development?

Yes, passenger. I used it for production purposes

Right. I usually put mine somewhere in /var/www along with the rest of
the Apache or Nginx stuff, but it really doesn’t matter much.

Okey, thnx! I undestand that it doen’t matter. I only want to bring
“some order” to server:)

I create a user specifically for hosting the application and put the app
in the users home directory. I do not use that user for any other
purpose. YMMV

Yeah, I like running each app as a separate user, but I prefer to have
all the code in one directory.

Of course, you could set up each Rails user account to have
/var/www/whatever as its home directory.
