I don't really use JRuby, so I haven't had the chance to try the glassfish gem. But I do use Grails, which generates War files, and the process isn't any difficult. At least to me. I don't really mind generate the war file with "grails war" and then deploy it in a servlet container. At the moment, I use primarily Rails with apache and passenger, but oftentimes I do have the need to work with Java based apps, hence the use of Grails which I find easier to deploy than JRuby on Rails. At least, I wasn't aware of the glassfish gem and when I tried to play with it, it generated a bunch of errors that I did not have the time to deal with. I read a bit about the glassfish gem and it does sound easier to deal with, since Glassfish is integrated into the whole server stack. Anyway... Passenger has made Rails deployment an easy process. So, on this one, I do agree with you. All the best, Fidel. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.
