Help with Apache configuration needed

Hi,

I''m new to rails, and apache, and going bald trying to sort out why I
am
getting 500 errors wherever I use rails.

The apache log contains the following.

As you might guess, I am running under windows (2000).

I have created a tmp directory in c:/winnt - clearly the wrong place.
Where should it go?

The apache config for the virtual machine is where I suspect the problem
might be. It contains (removing comments).

NameVirtualHost *:80

<VirtualHost *:80>
    DocumentRoot "D:/Program Files/Apache Group/Apache2/htdocs"
    ServerName mars
# Other directives here
</VirtualHost>

<VirtualHost 192.168.0.15:80>
    ServerName rails
    DocumentRoot D:/dev/blog/public/
    ErrorLog D:/dev/blog/log/apache.log
    <Directory D:/dev/blog/public/ >
      Options ExecCGI FollowSymLinks
      AllowOverride all
      Allow from all
      Order allow,deny
    </Directory>
</VirtualHost>

Thanks for your help.

Ian

If you practise error, you do error. If you practice perfectly, you will become
perfect.
You can''t correct the fast. You can speed up the correct.

I don''t know exactly.  But my guess would be d:/tmp.   Without the
drive letter,  /tmp will be interpreted as a relative path, and as
apache is running on d: (judging by the config below) you need a tmp
directory there.
