We use FreeBSD 8.2, Rails 3.0.7, postgresql 8.3, passenger and nginx for our production servers.
http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/cvsweb.cgi/ports/www/rubygem-passenger/
We seems to have a odd configuration because no one seems to have something like ours. I feel a little alone. :)
Nevertheless, this configuration is quite easy to setup, it performs well and it's very stable.
Is there a particular reason why Rails deveopper seems to avoid FreeBSD as a production server ?

Most probably most of development is made on Linux boxes, so it's natural to choose the same or very similar environment for production.

This is a first time I use docker, so I'm trying install sql-server-linux use docker in MacOS Mojave.
I'm read tutorial from https://database.guide/how-to-install-sql-server-on-a-mac/. But I meet a problem, my database server auto shutdown.
I'm tried with sudo code but nothing change.
I'm research and nothing talk about this issue.
I have written several webcrallers and always find it easier to build them from the ground up! Scrapy is a very nice module but it's documentation is a little lacking and can be quite challenging to begin with! I recommend using BeautifulSoup4, Python bult in Urllib2, and some socket module! Good luck!

I'm currently developing a rails app, based on Redmine, using a multitenancy approach. The app it is intended to be used by lots of users (at least I hope so :)), so it is important that it can handle several requests without compromise its performance. Having this in mind, I'm wondering which rails server would suit my needs best. I'm currently using thin, for memory savings purposes, but I'm afraid it is not the best choice for me... I've used unicorn before and I liked it a lot, but it was consuming a lot of memory and I had to change it to another one, but I've noticed that my app is not as fast as it used to be. Any advises? Thanks a lot in advance!
Use Passenger with Apache.

it might be a trivial question, nevertheless... Is it supposed that a web server (say, Apache) should be installed in order to make Ruby on Rails installation? What about database?
If yes, could you advice specific programs? I'm using Ubuntu 12.10, Ruby is 1.9.3.p392 and Rails is 3.2.12.
It depends on your task. You can use Rails with Webrick as HTTP-server (for development), which is installed with Rails and you can use Sqlite as database which you need install separately.
Here is a guide which can helps you.

I am a Ruby on Rails developer and I am planning to purchase an hosting space in order to publish my web application (I'm developing a small Social Network). This is my first time that I try to deploy a Ruby on Rails application, so I am not expert on the matter.
I would like to find a "compromise" between performance and price. I think that for now a shared server it is enough (maybe) for my needs (suggestions are appreciated...).
In localhost I am using
Ruby on Rails 3.0.9
ruby-1.9.2-p136
Apache
Phusion Passenger
MySql
so the hosting server should satisfy the above requisites.
More: in my application I am using the Paperclip gem so another requisite should be Image-Magick.
What hosting service do you advice for my needs? What should I have to care when I purchase a hosting space for RoR? And, most importantly, which hosting service do you advice??
P.S.: if you need some other information just ask and I will update the question.
Even though this question is slightly off-topic on SO, I'd recommend you look at Heroku:
http://www.heroku.com/
Hosting a Rails app can't be easier and you can start with the free plan and then scale up as needed.

I'm running OS 10.6 (Snow Leopard) and I want to completely wipe Postgres, RoR, and any Gems from my system and start over with fresh installations. The current setup I have now is 100% mucked up, and I'd rather just start from square one than troubleshoot it (since I do not know as much about it as I'd like to).
Is there a way to do this? I don't want to just setup a new subinstall via RVM, I want to completely get rid of everything associated with the RoR environment.
Thanks
I'd highly recommend leaving the broken native install and begin fresh with RVM, you'll have much less issues than trying to fix the native install.
