Hi,
I just signed up with a link 1 account, and I'm generally pleased so far with the service.
However, I'm running into problems installing rails. Going to the VPS manager, I looked for a Debian + Rails template install option, but I only see what are apparently vanila debian installs. After setting one up, I confirm, yes, there is no rails on the image.
I went through the motions of using aptitude to install it myself, but kept bumping up against:
# gem install rails
Bulk updating Gem source index
/usr/local/lib/site_ruby/1.8/rubygems/specification.rb:261:in `load': failed to allocate memory (NoMemoryError)
from /usr/local/lib/site_ruby/1.8/rubygems/specification.rb:261:in `_load'
...memory errors at every turn.
I realized while signing up that the account would be limited, but I assumed I would be able to actually install software on it. Would it really be necessary to upgrade to install rails? Could I switch to Xen somehow, which apparently has virtual memory support?
Thanks,
Justin
