Migrating a Ruby on Rails application to shared server

[Arun Seby]

Hi,

I have a Ruby on Rails application currently hosted in a dedicated server. I would like to Migrate the same to an account in cPanel were all other accounts are having PHP websites.

1) Is there any issues if I host the Ruby on Rails application in a cPanel account ?
2) Will it affect any other PHP websites ?
3) What all needs to be taken care before proceeding?

Can someone please comment on the same ?

Hello @Arun Seby,

You can install Ruby applications without affecting your PHP applications. We document how this works (along with some installation examples) on the links below:

How to Create Ruby Web Applications - cPanel Knowledge Base - cPanel Documentation
Application Manager - Version 80 Documentation - cPanel Documentation

Let me know if you have any questions.

Thanks!

Hi @cPanelMichael ,

Thanks for the response.

Yes, I have followed the steps from the link you provided. But the issue is the Ruby is not coming under the 'softwares' tab of cPanel ( cPanel >> Home >> Software >> Ruby on Rails).
I have followed the steps from this link Confluence Mobile - cPanel Documentation

Am I missing something ?

Also, I would like to know whether I have to register the application here in cPanel account, because I'm just migrating the app from another cPanel server so I was thinking about just copy paste the files.


Thanks in advance for your help

Hello @Arun Seby,

The Ruby on Rails feature in cPanel was replaced with the Application Manager feature. You should use Application Manager to register the application.

Thank you.
