I'm trying to get the Poll tutorial working at my Dreamhost account (I don't have any prior experience of deploying Django). I downloaded the script I found here (http://gabrielfalcao.com/2008/12/02/hosting-and-deploying-django-apps-on-dreamhost/) at my home directory and executed it. Now I have Python 2.5 and Django in ~/.myroot/ and my...

I'm trying to deploy a Sinatra app to Dreamhost and it says the following: Since DH supports Passenger, which in turn supports Rack-based ruby applications, DH does indeed support Sinatra.

I am hosting a Ruby on Rails 2.0.2 application on DreamHost. It is on an Apache 2 server, running on top of Phusion Passenger. The application often returns a 500 error "Rails application failed to start properly", but at random times. It appears to happen when the application is under higher load, though I can't confirm this. It only ...
I'm kind of lost, I try to deploy my application on a shared dreamhost server. Now everything works fine locally. It's my first try at Rails, and I'm not really a programmer or sysadmin, just hacking something together. On Dreamhost, if I start webrick, it works fine on port 3000, but webricks gets killed pretty quickly, I guess that ma...

I'm in the process of updating my Symphony installation and I've been told to "run these MySQL commands" to complete the process. Funny thing... I have no idea how to do that.

I am trying to deploy my first Rails app. I copied all files to ~/mysite.com and set up MySql. Here's my configuration at Dreamhost. Now when I visit mysite.com I get a 404 error (which isn't my custom 404 error). It seems that Passenger does not run! What should I do? Do I need to start Passenger?
