Setting up Rails for Apache

Question

Ruby on Rails

Hello.
Installed rvm, everything is fine. Made rails new example.

Further, in theory, you need to throw .htacces into public with something like this: And register /public as DocumentRoot. But the problem is this: dispatch.fcgi (and dispatch.cgi too) are missing. Where to get them? Software: Ubuntu Server 10.04 64-bit, Ruby 1.9.2, Rails 3.0.3 and moderately crooked hands.

AddHandler fcgid-script .fcgi
RewriteEngine On
RewriteRule ^$ index.html [QSA]
RewriteRule ^([^.]+)/!$ $1.html [QSA]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ dispatch.fcgi [QSA,L]
ErrorDocument 500 "Application error Application failed to start properly"

Answer 1

I did not understand why you need .htaccess. Do you want your rails application to run under apache? Have you installed the passenger module?
I myself am new to rails, but I managed to make several new server setups for development, I never had to do anything related to what you wrote.
