I have a rails application that I would like to deploy on a Linux-based cloud hosting running on Apache server.

I have been searching for information online, it seems to me like using Phusion Passenger is an option.

However I have no idea how to set it all up locally and in production. The Linux-based cloud hosting has a cpanel interface. Do I ftp the whole rails folder into the file manager?

Could someone please guide me or point me to a useful guide with step 1, 2, etc. Any help is appreciated. Thank you.

In order to install Passenger on a hosting service you will need SSH access.

If it's shared hosting you will most likely not get SSH, I would recommend www.digitalocean.com they give you full access to your private server.

Here is a guide once you have SSH access:
