With the release of our filmfury.com project, I''ve been trying to rise to the stature of a true system administrator in the last couple of days (haha).

I recently setup a subdomain to run my app as a staging site before pushing changes to the main site. So i setup a subdomain in cpanel, symlinked that the directory to point to a staging directory where i check''d out my rails app. However, when i go to staging.railsapp.com, it times out and says application failed to start properly. I''m not sure what is causing this, but

We''re trying to run Ruby on Rails on Debian with Apache and FastCGI, but can''t get it to work. As far as we can tell, it seems to go wrong in the final stages; Apache appears not to be doing anything with dispatch.fcgi, even though FastCGI looks to be set up correctly. We''ve followed several "how to"s, but we don''t get any other results. What
