installing

two stories

There are two different stories depending on the type of server you want to run and the type of features you need.

zena

Installing zena is a simple as:

# sudo gem install zena

Create a new application with:

# zena myapp

Create ‘localhost’ site and start application with the ‘init’ task:

# cd myapp
# rake zena:init RAILS_ENV=production

deployment

Installing and managing your own server running zena is for advanced users, even though we did our best to ease deployment and maintenance. We recommend taking an account by a zena hosting company if you feel unsure with server management.

You want to roll your own server ? Let’s go !

First you will need to install a bare-bones debian flavor of linux. Once this is done, you should install the dependencies and then you will need to dive into the capistrano commands provided with zena.

If anything goes wrong, you can ask the mailing-list or require support from teti.ch.
