Rails - Oct 2005 - Alternative page instead of Apache proxy error

I''m running a Rails site using LigHTTPd+FastCGI, hidden behind an
Apache 2 server with ProxyPass.

I do development on my Windows computer, check the code into the SVN
repository on the server, and check the code out into the production
directory on the server. Of course I only do this if everything checks
out at home, but sometimes there is a quirk error that causes the site
to crash when running on the server.

Is there a way that I can tell Apache to serve an alternative page if
LigHTTPd is unable to return a result? That is, a "We''re
Sorry" page
instead of Apache''s proxy error.

Sincerely,

Tom Lieber
