I would like to learn Ruby on Rails, and I have found Bitnami to Run Ruby on Rails.
But I am stuck, I installed it, PHP scripts run fine, but not the RoR.
I was searching a lot found some tutorials, but i dont know if those tutorials or the documentation is older my folder structure for Bitnami is totally different even the control panel
Could please can someone help me out how i am able to run RoR on Btnami? or could someone offer me something else?
Note that for running RoR BitNami provides BitNami RubyStack (with is different from BitNami LAMP, MAMP or WAMP Stack).

Yes I know there's not much support for deploying Rails apps in Windows but this is a requirement. I've searched online for hours looking for a solution to no avail! I don't need to use any particular server just anyway to get my app viewable on the company intranet.
I installed the WAMR (Windows, Apache, MySQL, Ruby) stack using the BitNami rubystack 1.9.3 installer. I can see my app using the WEBrick dev server just fine in localhost. I can even see the BitNami Welcome screen (index.html) when pointing to my Windows VM IP address from another computer on the intranet, but I can't figure out how to push the Rails app itself to production so that all other intranet computers can see it. Any solution would be appreciated! The server doesn't have to be Apache.
Thanks!
Quick and easy way to deploy a rails app on windows?
I would recommend virtualbox to run a linux virtual machine. Install vagrant and you'll be able to fully automate the download of the linux image and rails provisioning using tools like chef or puppet.
So, I got tired of seting up production servers for my Rails apps all the time and decided to learn to use a tool that can simplify that process for me. I choose Chef-solo.
I've read the documentation and watched some tutorials, but I'm not realy sure I understend the process well, so I decided to go right to practice and learn on the way.
Now the real question: can someone provide me with a set of correctly working cookbooks to set up the server so I wouldn't need to reinvent the wheel myself?
OS - CentOS v.6.0-6.3
Software:
Development Tools (groupinstall)
git
Node.js
ImageMagick
Nginx and Unicorn
MySQL and PosgreSQL
Mail Server POP/SMTP/IMAP
RVM + ruby
MemCache
Think that's it.
Ofcource I need not only to install the packages, but also to configure them properly.
Any suggestions or additional info needed?
You can try looking at my repo at https://github.com/dmytro/chef-solo
I am using it to bootstrap Rails environments for myself.
Additionally it can be combined with Capistrano deployment. I use this in my capistrano recipes https://github.com/dmytro/capistrano-recipes
I've put blog post on these. Please lake a look too: http://dmytro.github.io/2013/05/21/easy_spawn_new_hosts_with_capistrano.html
I have project, personal blog with ruby on rails 3.
I use linux.
I want to run this project on apache server, not in webbrick.
How can i do this?
It will be very helpful if someone can answer.
Thanks
You can take a look at Passenger*:
http://www.modrails.com/
This is a module for Apache that works like mod_php. It's very easy to setup and you can also use the Ruby Enterprise Edition to use "33% less memory on average":

I want to install Ruby on Rails application fedena (open source school management system) on site.com account anybody have the experience or can install help me.
Further details is available here:
http://www.projectfedena.org/install
You're going to need to rent hosting from a reputable company and setup Phusion Passenger or a similar solution and then deploy Fedena onto the hosted server and get your 'site.com' DNS records updated to point to the new hosting. You could run this locally if the school was willing to find a suitable server to host it on.
I'm going to be realistic and say that there is too much to be done here by someone with no experience with Rails (especially if you're wanting to deploy on Windows). I would look into finding someone with experience to assist you through the process. It might cost you a little but it will save on time and frustration.
I am about learning to program with Ruby on Rails but I'd like to know if web applications built on ROR can be hosted on the regular Linux servers.
Absolutely. One of the great reference books on Rails, "Agile Web Development with Rails" (written by the guys that created Rails), takes you through a whole demo app that includes server setup, configuration, deployements, everything. They deploy on Linux.
I also ran a site for over a year that was a Rails app, on Linux, and it totally rocked.
I think you'll also find that the broader Rails community prefers Linux. That means when you need help with something, you're much more likely to find someone else who has had your specific problem and is able to help you fix it.
You may also find this question helpful in choosing - how to select a Rails host (if you don't host it yourself).
Yes they can be and its advised to use Linux Hosting. I hardly if anybody uses windows hosting for Ruby on Rails. As for servers, You can use
A server called Mongrel ( in a cluster ) Behind Apache or Nginx.
Unicorn
Apache with Mod_Rails ( Phusion Passenger )
