Hey guys,

I've done some further research on the subject and thought I would share my findings with the forum.

Here are useful notes that I've taken from various sources on how to host/deploy your RoR applicationL

Hosting/Deploying RoR app

1. http://heroku.com *rails application hosting*

2. Install software on server *installation guides http://rubyonrails.org/download* *use google if needed*
- Ruby
-RubyGems
-Rails
-SQLite or Mysql
- mysql gem
connecting to remote server: in command line type ssh someuser@someserver.com

3. Webservers - Apache, Nginx, Lighttpd, -- Passenger/ Mod_rails, Mongrel, Thin, Unicorn.
-Recommended Apache + Passenger .

4. Deployment tools.
- FTP software, Transmit (for Mac)
or ExpanDrive (works for both Mac and Windows)

- Source Code Manager
-Git http://hit-scm.com and GitHub http://github.com
- Deploy Scripting, Capistrano - http://capify.com

Hope that helps a bit.
