Hi,
I have a rails 2.2.2 application, I am deploying it in shared hosting
server, I am using fastcgi-script for deployment. But I am getting “500
Internal Server Error” my .htaccess file looks like this.
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.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 failedto start properly”
Note:
If I run dispatch.cgi or dispatch.fcgi or dispatch.rb script in my
console, I see my application start page.
I have spun my application in the server itself, and transfered the
files to the application.
Freezing of gems, I have done in my local machine and transfered vendor
folder and app folder to my application in server.
Please help figure out, whats going wrong…
Thanks in advance,
Raju
