Rails - May 2006 - Lighttpd Config

Hi this is a newbie question that should be easy enough for somebody to
answer, I''m horrible at this web server configuration stuff.

I''m running Rails on Fedora Core 5 with Lighttpd and MySql. 
I''ve created a
rails application ''logapp''.   I have an entry in /etc/hosts
like...

127.0.0.1  logapp

So when I point my browser to ''logapp'' I get my app.

When I point my browser to the IP of the server (say 208.256.152.228)  I get
the default Lighttpd index page.

Now I want to move my app so that others on the network can access it by
going to something like http://208.256.152.228/logapp, but I cannot figure
this out!!  It''s got to be rather simple.

Here''s my Lighttpd.conf


server.port = 80
server.pid-file = "/tmp/test_lighttpd.pid"

server.modules = ( "mod_redirect", "mod_access",
"mod_fastcgi",
"mod_accesslog", "mod_simple_vhost" )

server.document-root = "/srv/www/lighttpd/"
server.indexfiles = ( "index.php", "index.html" )
accesslog.filename = "/var/log/lighttpd/access_log"
server.errorlog = "/var/log/lighttpd/error_log"

# Start of logapp vhost
$HTTP["host"] == "logapp" {
  server.document-root = "/home/jturnbull/logapp/public/"
  accesslog.filename = "/home/jturnbull/logapp/log/access.log"
  server.indexfiles = ( "dispatch.fcgi", "index.html" )
  server.error-handler-404 = "/dispatch.fcgi"

  # rails stuff
  #### fastcgi module
  fastcgi.server = (
    ".fcgi" => (
      "logapp" => (
        "socket" => "/tmp/logapp1.socket",
        "bin-path" =>
"/home/jturnbull/logapp/public/dispatch.fcgi",
        "min-procs" => 1,
        "max_procs" => 2,
        "bin-environment" => ("RAILS_ENV" =>
"production")
      )
    )
  )
}
# End of sceduler vhost

# mimetype mapping
etc.

Try this line instead of the above line:

    $HTTP["url"] =~ "^/logapp/" {

Thanks Ezra.  I really thought that was going to work, but I''m still
getting
a 404 at ''http://208.256.152.228/logapp''.  Any other ideas?

Thanks Again,
Joel
