Per the Ruby on Rails book you need something like this for a static server definition: <IfModule mod_fastcgi.c> FastCGIIpcDir /tmp/fcgi_ipc FastCGIServer /path/to/app/public/dispatch.fcgi -iniital-env RAILS_ENV=production -processes 15 -idle-timeout 60 </IfModule> So my question is if I have more than 1 app running via apache are these settings applied to each app or do I put this inside each of my virtual hosts, so I cnn have different settings for different apps? thanks, scott. -- Scott F.
