Ruby on Rails and Lamp

[vhenry]

I do web development in HTML/CSS/PHP but am also beginning to learn Ruby. Question is, will lamp interfere with Ruby or vice/versa?

LAMP is Linux, Apache, PHP, and MySQL.


I recently learned Ruby on Rails and use it now instead of PHP. I still find MySQL the best database option, so I use RoR with it.

However, I use Mongrel for the server now, not Apache. It's possible with Apache, but there is a bit of setup required that I didn't bother going through.

So what you need is an LMMR server :P


Have a look at this page, it should get you going:

Good to find another Ruby enthusiast. I've got ruby, rails and mongrel installed, looks like all I need is mysql. Thanks.
