There''s got to be something simple that I''m missing. I''m running apache 1.3.33 on Windows XP and I can''t seem to get simple CGI working with a simple rails app. I''m hoping one of you can spot my mistake. In my httpd.conf file I''ve got mod_rewrite loaded and added: LoadModule rewrite_module modules/mod_rewrite.so ... AddModule mod_rewrite.c and I''ve got an alias pointing to my rails app like this: Alias "/sample_rails_app" "E:/Dev//www/sample_rails_app/public/" <Directory "E:/Dev/www/sample_rails_app/public"> Options ExecCGI FollowSymLinks AllowOverride all Order allow,deny Allow from all </Directory> When I browse to: http://localhost/sample_rails_app/index.html I get the standard "Congratulations, you''ve put Ruby on Rails!" page, so I know the alias is correct. I''ve got the first line of dispatch.cgi pointing to my installed ruby: #!E:/Dev/ruby/bin/ruby But when I try to browse into a "test" controller I created: http://localhost/sample_rails_app/test/index I get this from apache: Bad Request Your browser sent a request that this server could not understand. Apache/1.3.33 Server at localhost Port 80 What am I doing wrong? Corky __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Tired of spam? Yahoo!

I''ve made a little bit of progress by switching from
using VirtualHost instead of Alias in my httpd.conf.
Now, when I navigate to my app in the browser, apache
actually runs rails. But I always get a routing error
no matter what URL I try. So far I tried these:
http://localhost/sample_rails_app
http://localhost/sample_rails_app/
http://localhost/sample_rails_app/index.html
http://localhost/sample_rails_app/test/
http://localhost/sample_rails_app/test/index
I have a test controller with an index method. In each
case I get this error (or similar):
Routing Error
Recognition failed for "/sample_rails_app/"
Even the index.html that holds the Rails
"Congratulations" page gets this error.
What am I doing wrong?
Here''s my VirtualHost definition:
<VirtualHost *:80>
ServerName localhost
DocumentRoot E:/Dev/sample_rails_app/public/
ErrorLog E:/Dev/sample_rails_app/log/server.log
<Directory E:/Dev/sample_rails_app/public/>
Options ExecCGI FollowSymLinks
AllowOverride all
Allow from all
Order allow,deny
</Directory>
</VirtualHost>
Thanks, in advance for any help.

Do You Yahoo!?
Tired of spam? Yahoo! Mail has the best spam protection around

I figured it out. Once I switched fro using Alias to VirtualHost, I needed to get rif of my application name in the URL (since that was part of the base document root). So, I should have been using: http://localhost/ http://localhost/index.html http://localhost/test/ http://localhost/test/index Now everything works as expected!
