While if i run dispatch.fcgi This is the result ]# ./dispatch.fcgi Requiring REXML Content-Type: text/html; charset=utf-8 Set-Cookie: _session_id=0472eeda1383af0fd86902505f7508ee; path=/ Status: 302 Found Location: http://:/account/login X-Runtime: 2ms Cache-Control: no-cache Content-Length: 88 <html><body>You are being <a href="http://:/account/login">redirected</a>.</body I guess there is some problem with .htaccess ------------------------------.htaccess General Apache options AddHandler fcgid-script .fcgi AddHandler cgi-script .cgi #Options +FollowSymLinks +ExecCGI # If you don''t want Rails to look in certain directories, # use the following rewrite rules so that Apache won''t rewrite certain requests # # Example: # RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} ^/notrails.* # RewriteRule .* - [L] # Redirect all requests not available on the filesystem to Rails # By default the cgi dispatcher is used which is very slow # # For better performance replace the dispatcher with the fastcgi one # # Example: # RewriteRule ^(.*)$ dispatch.fcgi [QSA,L] RewriteEngine On # If your Rails application is accessed via an Alias directive, # then you MUST also set the RewriteBase in this htaccess file. # then you MUST also set the RewriteBase in this htaccess file. # # Example: # Alias /myrailsapp /path/to/myrailsapp/public # RewriteBase /myrailsapp RewriteBase / RewriteRule ^$ index.html [QSA] RewriteRule ^([^.]+)$ $1.html [QSA] RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f RewriteRule ^(.*)$ dispatch.fcgi [QSA,L] # In case Rails experiences terminal errors # Instead of displaying this message you can supply a file here which will be rendered instead # # Example: # ErrorDocument 500 /500.html ------------------------- end .htaccess My site is in a subfoler ( actually a link to another folder ) in public_html .
