Ruby and Apache

Question

I followed these instructions, installed passenger, but the web page is still not resolving to the ruby app. It just shows the files. Please help!

Answer 1

By "Ruby app", I assume you refer to an app built with Ruby on Rails, the most common Ruby web application framework.

Make sure that you set the web root to the /public directory, your PassengerRoot and PassengerRuby lines are in the right file (bear in mind that you should not copy those, but instead what the installer told you!), and that you included the RailsEnv line in your site's configuration. (If you are on Rails 3, use RackEnv, instead.)

But these are just generic tips for likely issues. It helps if you have some more specific error messages, if any exist...
