Hi folks, I am working in Fedora Core 2 Linux, and using Apache 2.0 and mod_fastcgi, as per mentioned in the following link, to support Rails. http://wiki.rubyonrails.org/rails/pages/RailsOnFedora I had created virtual host and specified the path to my application''s /var/www/html/myapp/public/ directory as a value for DocumentRoot directives. Now what is happening is that, my index.html page is loading. As per the example program development steps given in the tutorial http://www.onlamp.com/lpt/a/5546 I had created database, tables, controllers, everything. but when i call the controller, it could not be located properly. But the same application code is running properly with Webrick server within the frame work. Please help my dear folks, in this regards, by teach me how to call controller. and how to proceed further. I was stuck at this stage, being not having helping hands near by. Please help me with your valuable suggestions. thanks in advance. -- with regards, Nahalingam N. Kanakavel.

You''ll have to remove the index.html page in order for your app to work. Rails works by acting as the default 404-file-not-found error page, so when you make a request for the site root and there is an index.html, rails isn''t even called, and the index.html is served to you. In order for your site root to serve up a certain page, you''ll also need to edit the config/routes.rb file - check it out, there are plenty of comments in there that will explain what to do. Best of luck, Chris On 6/14/06, Nahalingam N.

Hi, First of all, I would like to convey my gratitude to our folks, who has showed me the path to proceed furthur. Really, this is the place where newbies like myself can get help. Actually, as per your suggestions I have removed index.html from public/ directory. Now it is apache''s part to use .htaccess file to call appropirate dispathcher, but I think that my apache is not doing so. In my .htaccess file, I have changed the dispatcher configuration to call fcgi files, like the following, RewriteRule ^(.*)$ /dispatch.fcgi?$1 [QSA,L] and my file is also having the hander declarations, that is AddHandler fastcgi-script .fcgi AddHandler cgi-script .cgi Options +FollowSymLinks +ExecCGI The above three lines is also there in my .htaccess file. And then, I am having a controller called as MyTest. so, I have modifed my routes.rb files to call that controller through the following line of code map.connect '''', :controller => ''MyTest'', :action => ''index'' now also this configuration is not working with Apache. But, this is working fine, and the controller is called properly, when I am using Webrick server. Please help me with your valiable suggestions, in this regards.
