Hi, just a quick question, is there a way how to run two apps on the same domain? Both for testing purposes. Thank you. P. ---

Yes but you most likely want a subdomain: [http://www.zeroplayer.com/](http://www.zeroplayer.com/) [http://zeekland.zeroplayer.com/](http://zeekland.zeroplayer.com/) My servers give me a different Apache configuration, and different application folder, for the zeekland. subdomain. Your ISP probably has a control panel for you to add a subdomain, configure its folder, and link it to Apache. (www is also technically a subdomain, but it’s also just an alias for [zeroplayer.com](http://zeroplayer.com).) – Phlip ---

Are you wanting something like this: [app1.mydomain.com](http://app1.mydomain.com) [app2.mydomain.com](http://app2.mydomain.com) or [mydomain.com/app1](http://mydomain.com/app1) [mydomain.com/app2](http://mydomain.com/app2) Which one?

I’ve just contacted my ISP and my hosting doesn’t support running multiple applications ☹ Thanks for your replay. I cant deploy more than one app. ☹ P. ---

I would honestly think about just getting an inexpensive VPS solution from someone like Slicehost. You’ll learn a ton more about how Rails works and the fun of deployment and configuration that way. Plus, it is fun to do sysadmin stuff. 🙂 On Mar 2, 10:49 am, Petan C. [removed\_email\_address@domain.invalid](mailto:removed_email_address@domain.invalid) ---
