title: Why is it supposedly "hard" to deploy Ruby on Rails to production?
body: <p>I admit that I don't follow much of anything "right" on deploying test versus production code.  I have been using ASP.NET, and I typically run it locally in Visual Studio, it works, I upload it, I test it again on the production server.</p>
  
  <p>I have read several people say that deploying Rails apps is harder and there are special programs/ways on the ruby site about deploying RoR.  I've only toyed with RoR.  What is special about deployment?  You don't just copy and paste the code and run it (from development machine to the production)?  Is it because one is in Apache and the other running on the built in server?</p>
  
  <p>This will be on a Mac Server if it matters.</p>
