I have looked so long for nice tutorials, but still couldn't find any for Ubuntu 11.04. I wan't to set it up to learn by this book: http://ruby.railstutorial.org/ruby-on-rails-tutorial-book
The tutorials I found are not quite up to date and also doesn't aren't for 11.04 Ubuntu.
I am asking for quick tutorial, what's the best way to set up RoR server.
Also if you know any other great Ruby on Rails tutorials, as the link I wrote above, please don't hold back and definitely share the link to it.
Ty in advance!
PS! I already messed up one of my Virtual Machines, but luckily I had made snapshot of clean install.
Ubuntu has Rails packages already. It should be as simple as doing apt-get install rails-ruby1.8, which'll install Ruby as a dependency as well.
Ryan Bigg has a very nice tutorial called Ubuntu, Ruby, RVM, Rails and You. Since you're configuring a server you will probably have a look at some tips about deployment & best practices written by the creator of RVM himself.
I'm sure you have it done already though since it's an old question, but I the links will be of use to someone else.

For some days I've been using MAMP Pro 3.07 from http://www.mamp.info.
Great tool and all works fine.
But now I have the problem, that for a new project I need to connect to MSSQL.
I searched for a howto the last 3 hours in www, but can´t find a working answer or am I to stupid?
Is there a possibility to install "PDO-dblib" on MAMP on OSX Yosemite?
Or can somebody explain me how I can do this?
Thanks in advance!
From PHP website:
PDO_DBLIB: This extension is not available anymore on Windows with PHP 5.3 or later.
I see MAMP allows you to use different versions of PHP, so if you choose php 5.1.6 it may work. There is also a comment there from a guy who wrote its own class for this purpose. I am adding you also the pecl repository for this PDODblib.
Apart of this I am recommending you to use the latest version of PHP and do not rely on maintained extensions. PDO, which comes now by default with PHP, allows you to connect to MSSQL databases and you can find documentation here and here.
Ruboto rules like no Android development environment has ruled before. It's like the best of Rails combined with the best of the standard Eclipse-Java-Android environment.
Oh, except it's too new & green to even have tutorials or workarounds or even newbie QA in the forums.
For example, I can install Ruboto, and run it, until I try to add a gem to my application. The instructions seem to say to write a Gemfile.apk text file, and put your gem calls in it.
The problems start when I add a gem to that file:
source "http://rubygems.org"
gem 'wrong'
Then the system starts requesting other gems, such as thor, sqlite3, and Rails. Sometimes, it starts complaining about the versions of sdoc and rdoc. That's a story for another post. The upshot is the system asks for gem files one at a time, and expects specific versions.
This leaves me curious where a "master Gemfile.apk" is. So I can get into it, maybe bundle-install it, and I can stop screwing around with versions & mismatches and s--t.
The versions are ruby 1.9 to 2.1.1, and Ruboto 1.0.3.
A long question with many parts :) I'll try to cover all, but feel free to file an issue in the Ruboto tracker or ask on the mailing list or on the IRC channel if you need more info ( http://ruboto.org/community.html ).
You can find tutorials here:
https://github.com/ruboto/ruboto/wiki/Tutorials-and-examples
You can find the FAQ here:
https://github.com/ruboto/ruboto/wiki/FAQ
Tutorials showing use of Gemfile.apk:
https://github.com/ruboto/ruboto/wiki/Tutorial%3A-Using-Bundler
https://github.com/ruboto/ruboto/wiki/Tutorial%3A-Using-an-SQLite-database-with-ActiveRecord
https://github.com/ruboto/ruboto/wiki/Tutorial%3A-write-a-gosu-game
There is no "master Gemfile.apk". Only the gems in the Gemfile.apk and their dependencies should be installed into libs/bundle.jar and included in your app.
I hope this helps you get going. If you see opportunities for improving the documentation, we are open for contributions.
I just want to know if is possible to deploy to passenger a project that I have in rails3 (ruby-1.9.3) and another project in rails4 (ruby-2.0.0). I have installed ruby using RVM on my production server, I'm just wondering if is going to be possible to have 2 different projects on the same production server.
Regards
No problem in that, but there're couple things that you need to do first.
Install nginx instead of Apache and use it with unicorn. You can find a whole lot of setup guides depending on your production server OS, or use the capistrano-nginx-unicorn gem if you use Capistrano for deployment.
Use the rvm-capistrano gem to manage the ruby versions and gemsets used in each project. It's pretty well documented, but if you have further questions, feel free to ask.
If you'll need any further help, you may also consider asking on the freenode#rvm channel. I found some great hints there.
So, in college I had a Debian server which used to host a wiki, with mediawiki version 1.9. This server stopped working, and all I have now is its HD. I want to transfer this wiki to a new server, which also runs Debian, but I can't do that with Debian's current stable version of mediawiki, 1.15, because it is not possible to transfer a wiki to another version of mediawii.
So, my idea is to install mediawiki 1.9 on the new server, and then move the wiki. But I am having problems with installing it.
When I go to http://my_hostname/config/index.php, to configure the new wiki, so that I can transfer the other one, I get the following message, and nothing happens:
Checking environment...
Please include all of the lines below when reporting installation problems.
PHP 5.3.3-7+squeeze8 installed"
I really don't have a clue on what is wrong. ANY help would be greatly appreciated!
Like you commented yourself, it would certainly be worth a try to using your existing configuration. The configuration is typically some site preferences and database configuration, so make sure dat your database is setup in the same way as before.
Regarding your configuration problems, maybe php filters away the errors. You can check this by searching for error_reporting in your php.ini.
Just follow the instructions at http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Manual:Upgrading. Probably no point in trying to install at MediaWiki 1.9.
You may want to do a clean install of MediaWiki 1.18.1 first just to make sure your system is ready, all dependencies met, etc.
Can somebody please tell me which version of Rebol 2 to use on CentOS?
There are a couple of Linux versions on this page:
http://www.rebol.com/platforms.html
I'm going to have a go at this tutorial:
Quick and Easy CGI - A Beginner's Tutorial and Guide By Carl Sassenrath.
Thanks
As a guess, since CentOS is derived from Red Hat and so is Fedora, I would go with the Fedora build. But even if you choose incorrectly, you will probably find out fairly quickly that you've got the wrong package.
