Hi I''m a RoR newbie, in fact i''ve been using it for less than 24 hours, but I''m not an internet/pc/apache/developement newbie so I expected this to go much easier :) Ok, here it goes. I''ve been trying to get RoR working with apache both on a RH server and after i didn;t managed there I tried on my machine, an windows XP/Apache2 machine. I don''t like running it from localhost, i want my app accessible from the web and also i hate software that runs in command prompts that i have to keep opened (WeBrick) So, i followed many sets of explanations on how to do this, last one beeing http://wiki.rubyonrails.org/rails/pages/Fast+CGI+and+Apache2+for+Windows+without+VirtualHosts It doesn''t work. When i try to run the app in the browser it sais (this after beeing incredibly slow to process my request): Application error Rails application failed to start properly The error log in apache sais: [Fri Jun 02 10:54:38 2006] [warn] FastCGI: server "D:/work/#htdocs/ruby/clients/public/dispatch.fcgi" (pid 5108) terminated with exit with status ''1'' [Fri Jun 02 10:54:38 2006] [warn] FastCGI: server "D:/work/#htdocs/ruby/clients/public/dispatch.fcgi" restarted (pid 5116) [Fri Jun 02 10:54:42 2006] [warn] FastCGI: server "D:/work/#htdocs/ruby/clients/public/dispatch.fcgi" (pid 5116) terminated with exit with status ''1'' [Fri Jun 02 10:54:43 2006] [warn] FastCGI: server "D:/work/#htdocs/ruby/clients/public/dispatch.fcgi" restarted (pid 5124) [Fri Jun 02 10:54:47 2006] [warn] FastCGI: server "D:/work/#htdocs/ruby/clients/public/dispatch.fcgi" (pid 5124) terminated with exit with status ''1'' [Fri Jun 02 10:54:47 2006] [warn] FastCGI: server "D:/work/#htdocs/ruby/clients/public/dispatch.fcgi" has failed to remain running for 30 seconds given 3 attempts, its restart interval has been backed off to 600 seconds Actually the first 2 lines are from when apache starts. The settings i''ve added in httpd.conf are: Alias /clients "D:/work/#htdocs/ruby/clients/public" <Directory "D:/work/#htdocs/ruby/clients/public"> AddHandler fastcgi-script .fcgi Options +ExecCGI AllowOverride all Allow from all Order allow,deny </Directory> FastCgiServer D:/work/#htdocs/ruby/clients/public/dispatch.fcgi -processes 1 And public/.htaccess AddHandler cgi-script .cgi Options +FollowSymLinks +ExecCGI RewriteRule ^$ index.html [QSA] RewriteRule ^([^.]+)$ $1.html [QSA] RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f RewriteRule ^(.*)$ dispatch.fcgi [QSA,L] Sorry for the long message,i just thought of giving the whole info before asking for help, so that you guys can identify any stupid mistake i might have made. Also, i''ve tried first without fastcgi, that didn;t work too, the error i saw in browser was: Routing Error Recognition failed for "" All this errors i''m getting when I try to access parts of my app that work ok on webrick on port 3000. Ok, thanks for your patience and i hope i can get ruby to work on apache :) bye -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.
I found that I had similar problems when my .htaccess duplicated stuff in my httpd.conf. -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.
Have a go with my Rails Prod Win setup kit, it does exactly what you want to do: http://sourceforge.net/projects/rails-prod-win It installs, Ruby + Rails + Apache and FCGI pre-setup for you. You want to remove anything you have installed before installing this though. Just keep the rails application, not rails itself but your application. hope this help Gael On 6/2/06, Cristian Baltatescu <cripkd@ker.ro> wrote:> Hi > I''m a RoR newbie, in fact i''ve been using it for less than 24 hours, but > I''m not an internet/pc/apache/developement newbie so I expected this to > go much easier :) > .....................................
Hi, Edit the files: D:/work/#htdocs/ruby/clients/public/dispatch* Check that first line of each file points to ruby as a windows path. e.g: #!D:\ruby\bin\ruby kfir On 6/2/06, Cristian Baltatescu <cripkd@ker.ro> wrote:> Hi > I''m a RoR newbie, in fact i''ve been using it for less than 24 hours, but > I''m not an internet/pc/apache/developement newbie so I expected this to > go much easier :) > Ok, here it goes.

Only htdocs is on D because i''ve learnt not to keep anything valuable on the system partition, in windows, this way i only loose 1 hour to wipe C and reinstall. I guess i''ll take on that advice to install the package that comes with apache. Thanks for all the answers. -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.
