Rails - Sep 2006 - Rails app on Apache2 not finding Style sheets

I''m trying to set up a rails app (Radiant CMS) on Apache2 (on Ubuntu).
It sort of works, but I can''t get the right configuration to see the
right items.

When I try to access the site, I''m seeing an unstyled page, and the
apache error log shows:

[Mon Sep 18 23:03:08 2006] [error] [client 10.1.1.101] File does not
exist: /var/www/styles.css, referer: http://10.1.1.104/radiant/

I don''t know why it''s trying to find the style sheet in
/var/www.

The app is set up in /var/www/radiant and my Apache site config file is:

    DocumentRoot /var/www/radiant/public/

    ErrorLog /var/log/apache2/error.log
    Alias /radiant /var/www/radiant/public

    <Directory /var/www/radiant/>
      Options ExecCGI FollowSymLinks
      AddHandler cgi-script .cgi
      AddHandler fcgid-script .fcgi
      AllowOverride all
      Order allow,deny
      Allow from all

    </Directory>

This isn''t the first Rails app I''ve tried to get running under
Apache.
Can someone please post the appropriate voodoo to make it work? (BTW,
it works fine using script/server)

Thanks,

jt

Ok, maybe I need to ask a more basic question..

What''s the magic that I need to put into the file in
/etc/apache2/sites-available that will let me access a rails app like:

http://someserver.com/radiant

I don''t want a virtual server (radiant.someserver.com), but use the
format above. I was able to get the Radiant main page to show with
style sheet by changing a line to:

<Directory /var/www/radiant/public/>

But when, in this case, I try to click on an article, it''s assuming
that the app is at the root of the server, so is trying to serve up

someserver.com/2006/16/09

If I try to go to the Archives link, which should be

 someserver.com/radiant/archives

it''s trying to go to

 someserver.com/archives

completely ignoring the directory I set up.

Please?? Any hints or pointers? Setting up a Rails app can''t be this
difficult!

Just wondering... should I not even have the item setup in
/etc/apache2/sites-available?

Nope. That didn''t help.

Again... when I go to http://mysite.com/radiant, I do get the front
page. But all of the links, that should have /radiant/ , don''t:

http://mysite.com/radiant/about is coming out as http://mysite.com/about

and in the Admin pages, when I try to expand one of the sections, I''m
seeing the request headers:

Set-Cookie: _session_id=faa1dbd5cf25b0b70243262c11414317; path=/
Keep-Alive: timeout=15, max=98 Connection: Keep-Alive
Transfer-Encoding: chunked Content-Type: text/html;charset=utf-8 0



Anyone please have a hint on setting up a Rails app on Apache under a
subdirectory?????

Please???

Have you considered Lighty? I see some people successfully doing what
you describe using that instead of Apache:

http://pinkpucker.net/2006/1/31/getting-multiple-rails-sites-going-on-one-domain-using-lighttpd
http://forum.textdrive.com/viewtopic.php?pid=62648

I''d try to help from personal experience but I''ve had
difficulties
myself hosting two Rails apps on one domain.

Let us know how/when you solve this.
