i am new to all of this so bear with me. so i am running the rails appliance that i downloaded from vmware. it runs rails over lighttpd. i have the server set up so that i can see the test app, rforum.test. i used rails to set up a second app ''status''. both apps are in my /www/ directory. i have my hosts file on my windows machine set up so that i can navigate to ''rforum.test'' or ''status'' and the corresponding site will be loaded. the only problem is that i CANT get the splash page to stop showing for the ''status'' app. i have tried deleting index.html from the public folder. that didnt work. i created a new index.html and when i navigate to status/index.html, that page is displayed, but when i just navigate to status/ the original is still displayed. I have one controller(status) and one view(index.rhtml) created. this is how my routes.rb script is set: map.connect '''', :controller => ''status'', :action => ''index'' map.connect '':controller/:action/:id'' is this correct or is there anything i am obvioiusly doing wrong?
