Matthew,
This is exactly what I’ve been looking for–I can’t believe mine is the first comment. Two questions though: 1) what do you mean by “polymorphic”? 2) Is it a hard requirement that a tree be strictly hierarchical? I have a requirement to be able to put any key under any other key (while keeping the graph acyclic, of course), and 3) I want to edit a large number of terms by dragging and dropping onto an expandable hierarchical list. Do you know of any, say, jQuery tools for doing that?
Cheers,
Steve Upstill

Comment on HOWTO: Make system-wide RVM installations work with cron, monit, delayed_job, and passenger by Jay Levitt

And then there’s PassengerPreStart, which expects ruby to be in $PATH. On Ubuntu, you can solve that by adding “export PATH=/usr/local/rvm/bin:$PATH” to /etc/apache2/envvars.

Comment on HOWTO: Force https with Amazon Elastic Load Balancer and Apache by Eric Tice

Eric Tice — Mon, 31 Oct 2011 16:37:00 +0000

This looks good. The question is. If you have ELB as the load balancer and it is balancing instances of Elastic Beanstalk. Where am I putting this configuration? I am not seeing how to get to the ELB instance through command line. Your post also makes it sound like ELB is actually Apache running in the background. Is that a false assumption? I am trying to do this redirect and any help would be appreciated.
