Can anybody please help me to describe the detailed steps to deploy a
rails application in winows. I have gone through the net & find some
pdfs but these are categorially described for windows XP operating
systems. All these are also not describing from the scratch.
I need a complete manual of steps for deploying a rails application on
windows.
Particularly on Windows 2003.
It depends on what you mean by ‘deploy’. If you want to use your
windows box as a development server, this site should be fine. It’ll
tell you how to install and run RoR, as well as build a simple app to
get you started:
I am agin describing my problems which i have faced.
I have a demo application in ROR using web-rick server in windows.
For viewing this application i need to start each time the server.
Can i add this server to services so that each time i donot need to
start the server ??
If i can deploy all my codes to a live server then how do i automate all
these so that a external user can see my application.
Can i able to run web-rick in a live server.
Our server is windows 2003 os and my local os is win XP.
Can i face some portablity issue ??
@Pratik: It’s perfectly acceptable to run Rails in production on
Windows…
you will just suffer performance issuess due to Ruby running much slower
on
Windows. We run quite a few applications here that way. Running on Linux
is
a much better solution for larger applications because it takes much
less
resources.
