Before I go ahead and try and push a build of orchard I was wondering if anyone knew if it will run?

    Hi James,

    Orchard can run on AppHarbor, but there are a couple of kinks. Orchard uses local storage for storing certain content (images etc) that you upload. Websites on AppHarbor do not currently have persistent storage and should be used like a readonly website (writing to the directory is actually allowed, but it'll be deleted on subsequent deployments.

    It also writes the setup information to the /App_Data folder, so make sure you set up the website locally and commit the necessary setup files to you repository - otherwise you'll have to set it up each time you deploy.

    Also make sure you go for the "Precompiled module" or "Reference module" deployment types as described here: http://orchardproject.net/docs/Orchard-module-loader-and-dynamic-co... . That may actually already be the way your Orchard is set up, but I've seen it set up differently where Orchard wanted to dynamically compile everything.

    Good luck with it :-)

    Best regards,
    Rune
