Dreamhost and Ruby on Rails

After fighting Dreamhost’s dispatch.fcgi issues, I ended up moving one of my production sites to a local hosting company. So far so good. I did come across this post today though, and am trying it on another one of my dreamhost sites.

I’m using Montastic and AlertSite for performance monitoring.

Montastic is great for catching the alerts but no historical reporting, Alertsite provides great historical reporting.

The following URL is an excellent article on how to install trac on a hosted account with DreamHost.

New hosting services

After experimenting with Dynamic DNS, and working with a mail server behind a Comcast IP, I have decided to take advantage of a hosting service. So once again I have moved my sites, this time from my home servers to a dedicated hosting service. I must say it has been a pleasant experience.

I moved my blog, backed up the database, restored to my install of WordPress on Dream Host, and I am up and running. Very smooth, a nice and easy transition.

Seven days left until we are feature complete with Jean Grey (Bandwidth Composer v7.0 at Cymphonix) – it will be a nice milestone to pass.
