But you can also use Rails +with a variety of other web servers. Mongrel is a Ruby-based webserver with a C component (which requires compilation) that is suitable for development and deployment of Rails applications. If you have Ruby Gems installed, getting up and running with mongrel is as easy as: <tt>gem install mongrel</tt>. More info at: http://mongrel.rubyforge.org -If Mongrel is not installed, Rails will look for lighttpd. It's considerably faster than -Mongrel and WEBrick and also suited for production use, but requires additional -installation and currently only works well on OS X/Unix (Windows users are encouraged -to start with Mongrel). We recommend version 1.4.11 and higher. You can download it from -http://www.lighttpd.net. +Say other Ruby web servers like Thin and Ebb or regular web servers like Apache or LiteSpeed or +Lighttpd or IIS. The Ruby web servers are run through Rack and the latter can either be setup to use +FCGI or proxy to a pack of Mongrels/Thin/Ebb servers. -And finally, if neither Mongrel or lighttpd are installed, Rails will use the built-in Ruby -web server, WEBrick.
