Says that if I develop a Ruby on Rails application using Rails 2.3.2 will it usually be Passenger compatible at my hosting company?

says if I develop a Ruby on Rails application using Rails 2.3.2 will it usually be Passenger compatible on my hosting company?

If I ssh to my hosting company and type rails -v I get 2.2.2 ... so it looks like they might be using Rails 2.2.2.

So if I developed a Rails app on my Macbook and ftp all the files are there, will Passenger generally work well with the generated code with the current version of Rails?

Fix rails in suppliers / rails using the built-in rail task. This way, your application will use the version of rails you want, no matter where you deploy it.

rake rails:freeze:gems

And the easiest way to do a specific version that I know of.

rake rails:freeze:edge RELEASE=2.3.2.1

Now your version of rails will go with you where you submit your application.



You can unpack other gem dependencies into vendor / gems for whatever gem you use and want to make sure it's available wherever you deploy your application.

rake gems:unpack

And to ensure their dependencies:

rake gems:unpack:dependencies

I also suggest that you check that they have the latest version of the passenger installed.

I would check the Passenger version they installed (or confirm that it is installed at all). I also suggest you freeze the Rails version.

Just a second something for railsninja's answer.

First tell me it won't work right away.

Is this the vps host for you or sudo access in some way?

If yes, I suggest you do a rake: install instead of gems: unpack, because some of the gems depend on os (e.g. Rcov, RedCloth ... etc.)

I will ask the hosting company for their configuration for passengers, the important question will be whether they are using RailsSpawnMethod: smart or smart-lv2 (default). If they are using the smart method then it is best to freeze your gems and otherwise the rails will have a compatible issue as you can find a link to the user guide for the RailsSpawnMethod user.

It will be almost 100% compatible if you freeze your gems (all gems must be correctly declared in environment.rb using config.gem, for example (config.gem 'will_paginate' ,: source => " http: // gems.github.com ")) and RAILS !!!!!
