Application error

Rails Deployment
1

Hi Guys,

I’ve hosted with dreamhost and deployed my app in sub directory

mydomain.com/project is the default executable directory

under project i created rails “railsapp”

i created symlink ln ln -s ~/mydomain.com/project/railsapp/public ~/
mydomain.com/project/railsapp_project

when i call mydomain.com/railsapp_project its works and calls the
default index.html page under public directory

but whereas i created home controller if i try to call home controller
it says application error, but my real problem is log files not
generating. and moreover i given 755 permission to public and public/
dispatch.* and even to log and log/*.log but still log files not
generating and it says application error.

any suggestions?

regards,
Bala

Hello Bala,

When you receive the application error, the error is usually coming
before rails
has a chance to log.

I would check out the apache logs and try running rails from the
console.

you need to post your log files or mongrel and then for apache.
otherwise we can’t be sure as to what is wrong.
