DREAMHOST Worst host evar
3 December 2008 | 3:24 am by codeboxer
Dreamhost is also pretty crappy, if you need Ruby on Rails support. Why does everyone advertise RoR and then not support it?
It looks like a decent Hostmonster style host, with a snazzy interface, but at the end of it here were the problems:
Terrible SVN support; let me say that again - SVN kind of sucks already, but I ended up with a bunch of 500 errors, and I don't need anyone to help SVN suck more than it already does.
SOME good wiki stuff, but it was out of date, was NOT supported (see above), so I got frustratingly 80% close to a real capistrano deploy and then could not finish because were server compatibility issues (an old Ruby version) and without direct shell access I was fecocked. Then my SVN got corrupted. Fun!
With Dreamhost, if you aren't paying for a hosting service, you can't even manage your domain forwarding.
So I am still on the lookout for a good Ruby host and I am not any closer.
As a recap - DREAMHOST is the worst Ruby on Rails hosting service EVER! They are, of course, right there next to Joyent, who also has a large home in Crapistan.
