Error when trying to use FastCGI

Hi,

I wanted to run my scripts using FastCGI (I’m using RoR 2.0.2 with
Fedora Core 6 Linux), so following advice online, I changed this line
in my public/.htaccess file

RewriteRule ^(.*)$ dispatch.cgi [QSA,L]

to

RewriteRule ^(.*)$ dispatch.fcgi [QSA, L]

and now I get a 500 internal server error when I visit
http://mydomain.com/public/.
Here is the entry Apache’s error log:

[Tue Feb 26 09:04:09 2008] [alert] [client 67.190.94.163] /usr/local/
apache2/htdocs/easyrx/public/.htaccess: RewriteCond: bad flag
delimiters

And below is my public/.htaccess file in its entirety. Any ideas? -

==============Begin public/.htaccess file========================

General Apache options

AddHandler fastcgi-script .fcgi
AddHandler cgi-script .cgi
Options +FollowSymLinks +ExecCGI

If you don’t want Rails to look in certain directories,

use the following rewrite rules so that Apache won’t rewrite certain

requests

Example:

RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} ^/notrails.*

RewriteRule .* - [L]

Redirect all requests not available on the filesystem to Rails

By default the cgi dispatcher is used which is very slow

For better performance replace the dispatcher with the fastcgi one

Example:

RewriteRule ^(.*)$ dispatch.fcgi [QSA,L]

RewriteEngine On

If your Rails application is accessed via an Alias directive,

then you MUST also set the RewriteBase in this htaccess file.

Example:

Alias /myrailsapp /path/to/myrailsapp/public

RewriteBase /myrailsapp

RewriteRule ^$ index.html [QSA]
RewriteRule ^([^.]+)$ $1.html [QSA]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteRule ^(.)$ dispatch.cgi [QSA,L]
#RewriteRule ^(.
)$ dispatch.fcgi [QSA, L]

In case Rails experiences terminal errors

Instead of displaying this message you can supply a file here which

will be rendered instead

Example:

ErrorDocument 500 /500.html

ErrorDocument 500 “

Application error

Rails application failed
to start properly”
================end public/.htaccess file========================

Hi,
Uncomment the RewriteRule for dispatch.fcgi and comment out the
RewriteRule for dispatch.cgi
