By default the application runs in development mode after deployment. I want to set the mode to production but when I do that by changing the environment.rb, the application gets message 500. Is there any way to set the environment to production after deployment to server? I have a problem of setting the rails environment to production after deployment to the server.

It works great apart from one point. a2ensite railsapp doesn't work for me. I need to add .conf to railsapp. (a2ensite railsapp.conf) Anyway thank you very much for this blog.

I've been tweaking a remote ubuntu server config for hours, following every tutorial online, this was the only to actually work. Thanks a million Man,

But why exactly is threading an issue for deployment on production? There is no dark art with Rails production deployment. Capistrano has an issue with documentation and there isn't anyone interested in fixing the problem. Rails 2.2 will be thread safe. But why exactly is threading an issue for deployment on production?

You are correct in assuming that 'railsapp' should be replaced by whatever the name of your particular application is. @Jayashree :) thanks very much for the positive feedback. I've personally got a chip on my shoulder about rails deployment. It is something of a dark art. I think the problem lies in Ruby not being thread-safe. Otherwise you could serve multiple rails applications just by using mod_ruby. @ Daniel

I am experiencing so much grief trying to rails to run on a production server. I am new to all of this so I am hitting walls left and right. Since I am such a noob I do have a few questions. In your railsapp.conf file, I assume anywhere that says "railsapp" should be replaced with the name of actual rails app? I am deploying from my employer provided windows dev box. Do I just dump the contents of my projects folder into the directory of the production? Or is there something special that capistrano does? Thanks! Great tutorial.
