Starting Rails on Mongrel with Jruby.

13Oct08

Beginning developing a project for my radiology department.

I am developing on a Macbook with Leopard 10.5.5.

Getting a database running on mongrel is really quite easy. A few failed attempts on starting “glassfish” on my machine made me try this link: 120 seconds

It was really that easy and fast. Ok, so for me it was five minutes to get the server up and running ;-)

Now I am continuing development using the beta PDF of the Pragmatic Programmers “Agile Web Development with Rails” (third edition).

    Can you describe the error during your “failed attempts” ?

    Just out of curiosity, what issues did you run into trying to deploy to Glassfish?

    GlassFish V3 should “just work”.

    If you provide more details on how it failed, I might be able to help. Which IDE, if any, are you using, as well?

    Wow, celebrities on my newly started blog!
    Thanks Arun – wasn’t aware of the new version of glassfish:
    “jruby -S gem install rails glassfish –no-ri –no-rdoc”
    works just fine. I am going to post my progress going forward…

    I am planning on using Netbeans 6.1 – there is very much I have to learn…
