Hi, I have similar set up as yours. My production Linux server has plain Glassfish & MySQL, and no JRuby is installed (it is packed in WAR file). I ended up with running migration on my development computer. In my database.yml , I put the address of my production server. My production server is located in private network for security purposes, so I am using SSH tunneling to access from outside.
