The web server is running on a different machine than the dynos. So X-sendfile doesn't work. So they modify your environments/production.rb to disable that feature. But this tweaking takes a few seconds during slug generation, and they are tweaking your configuration. So they give you a warning to let you know. Thanks for the explanation, Keenan.

Static: a super simple Rails CMS for Heroku
I thought some of you might be interested in a little project I put together a few weekends ago. It's called Static, and it's a really small CMS app made for Heroku. It supports file uploads to S3, makes image thumbnails, lets you make pages, has an optional admin password, and a customizable application layout that supports erb. That's really about all it can do, which I've found to be really nice, actually. I use it for a few simple brochure sites I've made for my friends and such. I figure if they need any new features (can you show my twitter posts on the home page?) then I have a little (well tested, ~175 line) Rails app that I can enhance.

Backups...?
Are there any docs about the backups? I don't see anything about what a single bundle backup is or how to use it.

If it helps, I am using this base app:http://github.com/dancroak/heroku_suspenders/tree/masterto do the uploads. Yeah, this was the same with me. Things seem to be working properly now, but I'm concerned that the issue might reappear if the cause was unknown... Can you guys test things out again and post your results? - Trevor --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Heroku group.

Easy install on Heroku for El Dorado, my open source app
I just finished getting my open source forum/blog/chat app working on Heroku last night. I included deployment instructions in the README: http://github.com/trevorturk/eldorado/tree/master I'm really impressed with Heroku so far. There's a _huge_ difference between a Heroku deployment and setting up your own VPS at Slicehost or what have you. I don't think that knowledgeable Ruby/Rails developers realize how complicated deployment can be, even with recent improvements like Passenger. I've had people bail on this app because of deployment hassles and use Drupal instead. That's just not cool ;) I did some stuff to make installation and deployment as easy as possible, so please do check the app out and let me know what you think. I'd be interested to hear if other people have different strategies for making Heroku deployment even easier. The only things that stand out as a pain are the s3 and email constraints, but even those are just minor inconveniences. It's much easier to set up an s3 account than it is to install ruby enterprise, passenger, etc etc etc. - Trevor --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Heroku group.

Re: Spam

The spam was annoying (until gmail started filtering it completely for me) but having it all in my email is a better option for me. I like the Google Group, but I think it's important to have occasional posts/help from Heroku staff. Otherwise, it should be labeled as a user forum and specify that official staff only responds at the support site. The support site is great, too, though. The only thing I'd suggest is putting all of the docs into one place. I didn't realize that the support site had a knowledge base in addition to the proper docs area on heroku.com. At least putting an even more docs link in the docs area would help point the way to the knowledge base. In any case - thanks for cleaning up the spam, and for the awesome service! - Trevor --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Heroku group.

Re: to www or to not www
It would be nice to have an automatic redirect that didn't require application code, but you can also do something like the before_filter :ensure_domain bit of documentation here: http://docs.heroku.com/custom-domains#heroku-setup - Trevor On Jun 1, 11:45 pm, foi foi.fi...@gmail.com wrote: I have had the same problem as you.

I've had reasonably good experience with the support at Heroku, but I wouldn't give it an A+. To wait 4 days for any kind of a response for a support ticket seems unacceptable to me.
