Hi Pardeep If your goal is to have a Rails app before Thursday, and you want to focus on the rails application (not learning about deploying rails applications), I would recommend you check out Heroku ( http://www.heroku.com/ ). You can sign up for a free account and deploy a rails 3 application to "the cloud" with Git. Heroku is also really we documented and well suited for Rails 3 (at least in my limited experience).
Sorry I personally have no Linode experience. I think posting your config/environment files and config/database.yml might help people get an idea of what's happening with your DBs.
