David and Mukund seem to have answered your second question. I'll focus on this one. I'd rephrase your question a bit: 1. A typical rails application defines three environments - development, test, production. - Can I define others? Yes, you can. I've had "staging", "fabrication", and "production_LIVE" environments on various projects in addition to the standard three. - Is there a limit? No, not really. You do have to keep a config/environments/staging.rb (or whatever your environment is called) and the corresponding section of the database.yml file, but that doesn't put a limit on how many environments you can have. The real limit is probably your ability to give them names that you can keep straight. -Rob Rob Biedenharn http://agileconsultingllc.com [email protected] > > 2.
