After spending about half my weekend working on this, I got my Ruby on Rails application moved from Planet Argon to OCS Solutions. In the process, I updated it to work with RoR v. 2.1.2 My former hosting company “fired” me as a customer earlier.

I wanted to try using mod_ruby a.k.a. Passenger, but I when I first configured my OCS account I took a path that precluded this. When I have some time, I’ll reconfigure my OCS account. But not this weekend 🙂

I also discovered a nice, and free, IDE to work with Ruby and Rails, NetBeans. It is far more mature product today than when I last looked at it a few years back. I also looked at RadRails but I like NetBeans much better. I’m not an Eclipse fan, RadRails is based on Eclipse.
