Instiki users - Jun 2006 - [Instiki] Instiki on Apache

I am also having troube getting instiki to run with apache.

I get this in my apache error log

[Mon Jun 12 14:32:02 2006] [notice] mod_fcgid: server

I am running
Fedora Core 5
rails 1.1.2
instiki-0.11.0
apache 2.2.0
mod_fcgid.1.09

I have several other rails apps running under apache but Instiki just
doesn''t seem to want to work. I checked my shebang in dispatch.fcgi
and that is correct and the same as all my other rails apps that I
have running under apache. Any ideas?

here is what is in my httpd.conf

IPCCommTimeout 40
IPCConnectTimeout 10
LimitInternalRecursion 20
SocketPath /tmp/fcgidsock

<VirtualHost *:80>
    ServerName help.foo.com
    DocumentRoot /var/www/sites/help/public
    DefaultInitEnv RAILS_ENV produciton
    <Directory /var/www/sites/help/public>
        Options ExecCGI FollowSymLinks
        AddHandler fcgid-script .fcgi
        RewriteEngine On
        RewriteRule ^$ index.html [QSA]
        RewriteRule ^([^.]+)$ $1.html [QSA]
        RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
        RewriteRule ^(.*)$ dispatch.fcgi [QSA,L]
    </Directory>
</VirtualHost>

Is this intentional?

r = RedCloth.new("-- --\r\n p(link)")
=> "-- --\r\n p(link)"
irb(main):014:0> r.to_html
=> "<hr />\n p(#link)"

I would expect the output to be:
=> "=> "<hr />\n <p id="#link">"

If it is intentional, then, why would this work?

irb(main):018:0> r = RedCloth.new("-- --\r\n *link*")
=> "-- --\r\n *link*"
irb(main):019:0> r.to_html
=> "<hr />\n <strong>link</strong>"

Finally got this work. Seems there was several problems.

my hints
run dispatch.fcgi from the command line to see if it works, also might
want to go into debug mode "ruby -r debug dispatch.rb" to see what
exceptions are being thrown. Usually you''ll have to set up
REQUEST_METHOD i did "export REQUEST_METHOD=GET" to get it to work.
and then magically everything worked. its seems like there was a hump
and that helped it get over it.

also the usual double checking of permissions and database.yml files
are important.
