John,

Whether or not you''re using FastCGI or not is not depending on
TextDrive. It depends on your appname/public/.htaccess (or whichever
..htaccess you''re using).

If you have a line saying:
RewriteBase /dispatch.cgi

You''re using plain cgi. If that''s dispatch.fcgi,
you''re on FastCGI.
Just changing that line will do the trick for you.

BTW, you can also set the RAILS_ENV application-wise in
config/environment.rb. You should have something like this in there:
RAILS_ENV  = ENV[''RAILS_ENV''] ||
''development''

You can change that line to reflect your needs if you can''t (or
don''t
want to) mess with the apache configuration files.
