Rails - Oct 2006 - problem with images/stylesheets between windows and unix

Hi,

I''m finding my image and stylesheets are resolving fine on
windows/webbrick,
but not on unix (Dreamhost).  I can''t navigate to them on dreamhost and
I
get a  "File not Found - Change this error message for pages not found in
public/404.html"

One difference is that on dreamhost (fastcgi) I do use Capistrano so my
rails application is under /current/, but I have mapped this in the
dreamhost domain setup tool.

Can anyone spot if something is wrong in my .htaccess file below?  Is the
idea that static files (e.g. images/stylesheets) are supposed to be covered
off in .htaccess with no entries required for them in routes.rb?

==========================================AddHandler fastcgi-script .fcgi
AddHandler cgi-script .cgi
Options +FollowSymLinks +ExecCGI

RewriteEngine On

RewriteCond %{DOCUMENT_ROOT}/system/maintenance.html -f
RewriteCond %{SCRIPT_FILENAME} !maintenance.html
RewriteRule ^.*$ /system/maintenance.html [L]

RewriteRule ^$ index.html [QSA]
RewriteRule ^([^.]+)$ $1.html [QSA]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f

RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} ^/stylesheets.*
RewriteRule .* - [L]

RewriteRule ^(.*)$ dispatch.fcgi [QSA,L]

ErrorDocument 500 "<h2>Application error</h2>Rails application
failed to
start properly"
==========================================


Tks

Your domain points to your public/ directory right? I''m sure it does
but
just to check...

I don''t think I use the rewrite rules at all, maybe that slows it down
a
bit as static requests do go through rails. But here is the complete 
.htaccess which resides in the public/ directory( I haven''t mastered 
Apache config so I''ve barely touched this file ):


AddHandler fastcgi-script .fcgi
Options +FollowSymLinks +ExecCGI

RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /

RewriteRule ^$ index.html [QSA]
RewriteRule ^([^.]+)$ $1.html [QSA]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ dispatch.fcgi [QSA,L]

ErrorDocument 500 "<h2>Application error</h2>Rails application
failed to
start properly"

My domain does point to current/public yep..actually I am getting a routing
error (recognition railed) when navigating directly to a stylesheet so this
probably indicates I guess that the rewrite rules aren''t working.

(a) Can anyone spot an issue with the .htaccess file below, and in
particular the following portion of it?
          RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} ^/stylesheets.*
          RewriteRule .* - [L]

(b) If I update .htaccess is there anything I need to do to make it take
effect?  (again I''m on Dreamhost [fastcgi])

Tks

PS. Sorry, can I add question c too below (refer previous post re (a) and
(b) questiosn):

(c) Given that my direct request for one of the image files is making it to
rails (as I get a ActionController::RoutingError (Recognition failed for
"/images/arrow_right.gif"), and that this request works fine locally
on
webbrick but not at dreamhost (e.g.
http://<domain>/images/arrow_right.gif)
then:

- should it be the case that the rails routes.rb and the routing method
should match up a direct request without having the need for an entry in
routes.rb to cover this.  That is should I need to put something into
routes.rb to cover off the ability to pick up static type files from
/public?

- any other ideas here?
