Hey Brian, I must say that I definitely gleaned a lot of knowledge from your site. I ended up going with an Apache front to several mongrel processes. This really is an easy way to deploy. Luckily our last asp app is on it's way out and I think I'll be able to replace IIS with Apache. I just need to figure out how to do ssl client certs with it now.
I had first tried to use Lighttpd as the balancer with your instructions, but I guess they've changed up the syntax of the configuration file. I also found some additional information here: http://brainspl.at/articles/2006/06/12/apache2-2-vhost-template-for-mongrel-clusters On 2/8/07, Brian Hogan <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > I'll plug my stuff again > > http://www.napcs.com/howto/rails/deploy/index.html > > And there's a book coming out that will cover this topic shortly. > > > On 2/6/07, Aníbal Rojas <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > > > > > I have run Apache on W2K, it is really easy to install, and stable. > > Its configuration is the same than linux so it should not be a > > problem.
