Thanks for all of the advice on which web server to use! I think that Apache would be great and I really want to use it, but here's my problem:
I've got shared server web hosting at Textdrive.com, and they wholeheartedly recommend Lighttpd. So much, in fact, that I can't find much information about how to launch a rails application using Apache. Their servers run on Apache, however, and they're rails tutorials show you how to set up Lighttpd instead. I'm not sure how to get my rails application to run on Apache, even though it seems like it should be really simple, since it's already up and running. I don't know if I can really stop and start Apache, however, since I'm hosted on a shared server. Does anyone know of a good tutorial or have sage advice about how to get a rails app running on a shared server with Apache? Do I just move all of my files to the /web/ directory and configure dispatch.cgi or something like that? Like I've said before, I'm completely new to the world of web server stuff, so I'm not even sure I'm asking the right questions here.
Thanks all!
Dave
