When I returned from a short vacation I found that my first Rails app I had just finished and which I left ? I thought ? in perfect working conditions had thrown the towel all together. It now times out with the message "Application error ? Rails application failed to start properly". I have no yet clue as to what may have caused the app''s change of mind. Hopefully someone here can tip me off! Some information: It''s hosted on a Dreamhost shared hosting account It''s set up following their leads at http://wiki.dreamhost.com/ index.php/Rails It doesn''t use any gems The logs don''t get touched anymore, so there''s nothing to learn from them Thanks for any help!
