Rails 3 with Ruby 1.9.1 on Heroku
- by stephen murdoch
I've decided that I am going to man-up and start using Rails 3 from now on but the following note found here puts me off a bit:
Note that Ruby 1.8.7 has marshaling bugs that crash both Rails 2.3.x and Rails 3.0.0. Ruby 1.9.1 outright segfaults on Rails 3.0.0, so if you want to use Rails 3 with 1.9.x, jump on 1.9.2 trunk for smooth sailing.
I use Heroku for my deployment and as far as I am aware they do not plan to add 1.9.2 to the stack until it's stable (which might be in August) so I was thinking of doing it with 1.9.1. and seeing what happens.
I know that there is a 3rd beta release now but the comments on the blog imply that it's still a little bit buggy.
Is DHH inferring that you shouldn't touch Rails 3 at all if you are on 1.9.1?
What are other Heroku-ists doing regarding Rails 3? Anyone using it for any production apps?
I guess I'll only know once I've tried but any advice would be nice.
