I'm not sure if anybody is secretly working on an installation script for Hobo 1.3 yet, but if you are, it would be nice to reply to this post to let me know of your intentions. In case nobody is working on this idea, let me help you gain a little perspective: How valuable would it be to you to have at least 10 times the number of active Hobo 1.3 developers actually testing and providing feedback on Hobo 1.3? I, for one would be getting my son involved as a developer and recommending the same to many of my personal friends. But as it stands, I can't honestly recommend that to anyone. If and when such a script is designed, there should be a link from the hobocentral.org/blog page to download it. And remember that I'm willing to pay for this to be done...and am expecting anyone doing this to tell me how much they want to be paid. Still no takers?

But that was many years ago and I've had "my fill" of that sort of thing. I know scripts are much more capable than batch files, but I never took the time to learn how to use them and I don't really care to...besides...I don't have time to do anything like that. But I know that there are a few guys out there that can write very good scripts that will even sense the distro name, version, and whether it's a 64 bit or 32 bit version and make the appropriate changes. I'm well aware of my own limitations. I know I need help. ________________________________ From: Ronny Hanssen <[email protected]> To: [email protected] Sent: Wednesday, July 27, 2011 9:44 PM Subject: Re: [Hobo Users] Re: 1.3 Cookbook Beta As a note: I am also using Ubuntu on my production server. I remember having some severe fights getting everything up'n'running. But, the problems I had was (like others have mentioned in this thread) not hobo related, they were Ruby, rvm, nginx and passenger related. Well, actually - mostly ruby_ee IIRC... In any circumstance: I would welcome a ubuntu setup. I have *nothing* against that. But, someone needs to do it and when done it needs to be maintained. And - I am not against any other OS combination to be added neither. With a section like that I would have struggled less getting my Ubuntu server ready... I think what I miss most of all in these situations is an authoritative guide on different "stacks". There are a fair amount of information on the internet, but the information is scattered and often for the wrong software combinations. Maybe someone wraps up a site similar to stackoverflow, but focusing on guides/scripts for different OS/software combinations. Maybe with branching like github for any scripts, for easy extends/customizations. Each "stack" would be for a given combination of software modules/versions, with stackoverflow comments and votes from other users on issues experiences or similar... These are wild ideas popping up as I write, but if anyone finds any value then please use my ramblings at will :) Regards, Ronny -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Hobo Users" group.
