Rails on Java Application Server ?
JRuby does the trick.
With Warbler (a gem to create a war from your rails app) and Goldspike (creates WEB-INF) it is possible to use e.g. a Tomcat to host your RoR or RoR2 webapp. Find more in the JRuby Wiki or in Nick Siegers Blog !

PHP & Leopard II
As a follow up to my previous post. After I successfully enabled PHP5 on the built-in apache2 webserver, i discovered that this php installation is a custom Apple one. It is missing some essential library: the GDLib, for editing grafix.
After spending a lot of hours of trying to edit and extend the existing configuration, I finally found out, that nothing would help than re-build apache and php.
Here is a discussion about this topic with VERY helpful hints !
Two additional hints from me:
- install the latest XCode from Leopard DVD
- use “make clean” to be sure to build always the newest configuration

PHP & Leopard
Php is not available after upgrading to Leopard. Why´s that ?
Leopard ships now with Apache 2.2 and Php 5.2.4. The old configuration stays at its place at /etc/httpd, but the new Apache uses /etc/apache2. So I had to remove the # from “LoadModule php5_module libexec/apache2/libphp5.so” in “/etc/apache2/httpd.conf” and restart the web server to get it going.
