I have my rails sites hosted by Bluehost. While they are in many ways an ideal host for developers, they have one very major problem.
Their sysadmins periodically change the Rails installation without any warning to users. The result of this is that the sites periodically break - and we get no warning that this is going to happen. I don't fault them for updating the installation - rails is pretty new technology after all. By not letting us know what's happening, however, our sites can go down without warning. The only way to determine whether or not they've done something is to actually connect to the site and see whether or not it is still working. I've complained to them about this repeatedly ... their normal response is simply to ignore the complaint. Is there some way to do an autocheck of the system to see if anything in the rails installation / configuration has changed? If there is, I could set this up as a cron job and do a manual check when I determined that something had changed. This would also minimize the distortion of the logs from the hits from my check.
