[Rails] Re: Comparisons between mod_ruby and FastCGI
Don't think anyone uses either of those these days.

I will say stay away from FastCGI, that's all. H On Nov 28, 3:43 pm, Frederick Cheung [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Don't think anyone uses either of those these days.

You are really going to want to take a look at mongrel, thin, or ... my perference ... Passenger/mod_rails. Just type http://modrails.com into your browser window and be amazed. ;) On Nov 28, 11:53 am, Matt [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Hello all, I'm a new Ruby on Rails developer who is working on applications for several different clients using the Ruby on Rails framework.

False. My webhost currently has us using FastCGI to run our Rails scripts. I may shoot them an email asking about mod_rails though.
