Which server should i use for RAILs on my VPS

Hi guys,
I have a linux VPS. I was wondering which is the best way to run rails
on my server. Should I use:
Webbricks
Apache
Apache+mongrel
LiteSpeed - http://litespeedtech.com

waiting for some nice suggestions

I’d like to say RubyWorks Production Stack. Check it out at
http://rubyworks.rubyforge.org

Basically you’re gonna need applicaiton server cluster plus load
balancing plus (optional) services monitoring. RubyWorks provides the
whole thing.

We’re using apache+mongrel.

If you only run rails applications you can try nginx+mongrel, but if you
need another things apache+mongrel (I read it in some places). In my
todo list have “Try apache+nginx”.

Rafael,

It is not a webserver for rails. It is a repository with binary RPMs
for several commonly used apps in a neatly packaged stack. If you
follow their documentation it tells you that they use HAProxy, Monit,
Mongrel and Runit. I prefer Nginx + Mongrel these days but I copied
their Runit + Monit scripts. Runit is really nice.
