Hello, I''m having a serious problem proxying from Apache (2.2) to local Lighttpd servers. I need this to run Rails instances on www.mysite.com/rails next to the regular part from www.mysite.com. Currently I get a working www.mysite.com/rails for only the first page, controllers do not work. I am quite desperate in getting this to work as it is the only way I can run Rails at our systems... My configuration is as follows: my apache config has the following line at the bottom: ProxyPass /cookbook http://localhost:3000/cookbook ProxyPassReverse /cookbook http://localhost:3000/cookbook my lighttpd config is essentially the same as at <http://wiki.rubyonrails.com/rails/pages/HowtoSetupApacheProxyingToLighttpdWithFastCGI>. below in my environment.rb it says: ActionController::AbstractRequest.relative_url_root = ''/cookbook'' Now surfing to www.mysite.com/cookbook works fine, altough I get the security warning for the info. If I generate a controller MyTest (ruby script/generate controller MyTest) and I restart the server I get: Routing Error Recognition failed for "/MyTest" Why? My lighttpd access log says: 127.0.0.1 localhost:3000 - [04/Aug/2006:16:23:34 +0200] "GET /cookbook/MyTest HTTP/1.1" 404 607 "-" "Mozilla/5.0 (compatible; Konqueror/3.5; Linux) KHTML/3.5.2 (like Gecko)" my development.log: ActionController::RoutingError (Recognition failed for "/MyTest"): /usr/local/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/actionpack-1.12.3/lib/action_controller/routing.rb:521:in `recognition_failed'' /usr/local/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/actionpack-1.12.3/lib/action_controller/routing.rb:511:in `recognize!'' /usr/local/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/rails-1.1.4/lib/dispatcher.rb:38:in `dispatch'' /usr/local/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/rails-1.1.4/lib/fcgi_handler.rb:150:in `process_request'' /usr/local/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/rails-1.1.4/lib/fcgi_handler.rb:54:in `process!'' /usr/local/lib/ruby/site_ruby/1.8/fcgi.rb:600:in `each_cgi'' /usr/local/lib/ruby/site_ruby/1.8/fcgi.rb:597:in `each_cgi'' /usr/local/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/rails-1.1.4/lib/fcgi_handler.rb:53:in `process!'' /usr/local/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/rails-1.1.4/lib/fcgi_handler.rb:23:in `process!'' /home/bbraem/cookbook/public/dispatch.fcgi:24 Rendering /usr/local/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/actionpack-1.12.3/lib/action_controller/templates/rescues/layout.rhtml (404 Page Not Found) my Lighttpd error log: 2006-08-04 16:23:34: (request.c.293) fd: 7 request-len: 521 GET /cookbook/MyTest HTTP/1.1 Host: localhost:3000 User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (compatible;
