Hello, I''ve been creating Rails apps on Mac OS X just fine, and I just got a hosting account with webmasters.com, which offers Rails. I uploaded an empty app, just to see if I can get the "Welcome Aboard" page. I did get that page, but when I click on "About your application''s environment", I get "Not Found - Sorry, the requested URL /testapp/public/rails/info/properties was not found on this server." I''ve requested support from the host, and they say they cannot help me, that other users have gotten it to work, and that it is a coding issue. I''ve also tried uploading a working app, setting up the database, etc, and am not able to access the app at all. I figured I should get the first "Welcome About" page problem fixed first. Thanks, Philip -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.
Ok so that''s weird. (That''s my name too!). The only thing that I can think of about your predicament is that perhaps you did not upload the whole shebang, or you are having some permissions issues.

Wow, that is very strange. You even spell it right. You''re not part of the Johnston/Lansdale family are you? (There are a lot of Philips in my family.) About the Rails problem, my app is called "testapp", and I just uploaded the entire testapp directory into the httpdocs folder. I didn''t do anything with the permissions, as I wouldn''t know what to do, and I haven''t read that you need to... Philip -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.
Hmm, I''m not very familiar with hosting services, since I run my apps out of my garage on a box that I control. Are you possibly going from a Mac to Unix? I had some issues with that cause OSX does is not case sensitive, but I have not had any troubles with what your trying to do. It might be that the hosting provider needs to have your Lighttpd configuration adjusted for their service. As for families, we are out of Oklahoma, additionally I think we are a mix going back to who knows, but what I do know is that a distant relative was the first law man of the Oklahoma territory way back when, so we have lots of Cherokee blood as well.
