Upgrading to Rails 1.1 (1)

posted on Wednesday, the 29th of March 2006 at 08:38 in , ,

While it may be considered good news that Dreamhost has upgraded their Rails distribution to 1.1 – it is causing a large number of problems with existing rails apps. There are reports of this happening across the web (Dreamhost, Textdrive etc.) as hosting providers install the new framework.

My blog here was down for the majority of today until I came across a fix for running your app under a frozen 1.0 rails in your vendor/ folder.

On a plus note Rails 1.1 looks promising and coupled with a new release of RadRails it should be a joy to work with.

    Dreamhost, being the great host they are – have come clean about what happened and for now reverted back to Rails 1.0

    Following Geoffrey Grosenbach’s advice, ive decided to have a go at installing his hack of DWatch – which offers simple web and process monitoring on your server.
