I have been attempting for days to configure Apache for Rails. I have
read forums, followed How-To''s all in vain. I am hoping someone can
help
me out. I am getting the Rails Welcome screen, but when trying to go to
any other url, I get the 500.html message. Take a look for yourself at
http://66.139.78.237 and click on "about your application''s
environment".
Below is my VirtualHost directive in httpd.conf. I can provide more
info if necessary.
<VirtualHost *:80>
SetEnv RAILS_ENV production
DocumentRoot /usr/local/apache/htdocs/test/public/
ErrorLog /usr/local/apache/logs/apache.log
ServerName 66.139.78.237
LogLevel emerg
<Directory /usr/local/apache/htdocs/test/public/>
Options ExecCGI FollowSymLinks
AddHandler cgi-script .cgi
AllowOverride all
Order allow,deny
Allow from all
</Directory>
</VirtualHost>

It''ll be in RAILS_ROOT/logs/production.log If that''s blank, apache probably has trouble running cgis, so look in /usr/local/apache/logs/apache.log> Below is my VirtualHost directive in httpd.conf.

How is your configuration of mod_fcgi ??
You should have something like
<IfModule mod_fastcgi.c>
FastCgiIpcDir /tmp/fcgi_ipc
FastCgiServer /usr/local/www/my_ror_app/public/dispatch.fcgi
-initial-env RAILS_ENV=production
-idle-timeout 30
</IfModule>
Do you ?

I have often wondered about this IfModule mod_fastcgi.c setting. Don''t seem to need it. At least everything runs fine without it. What do I gain by putting this in?
