I have Windows 7 x64. Both Tomcat and Rails are installed and working. I just do not know how to make them work together.
Therefor I am looking for a link to a step by step guide about how to make Apache Tomcat work with Ruby on Rails application. Suggestions?
Tomcat is for Java applications, which allows you to run Java Servlet and JavaServer Pages. You do not need a full Apache Tomcat server, a normal Apache or Nginx webserver is enough. With the help of Phusion Passenger, deployment of Rails applications is really easy. Just follow the Phusion Passenger users guide. If you must use Tomcat, though, you can connect the Apache Tomcat server with an Apache web server. This requires the mod_jk module, a Tomcat-Apache plug-in that handles the communication between Tomcat and Apache.
