Forum: Rails Engines development help with deploying to apache 2.2 and mod_fcgid/fast cgi

Hello again.  I'm having a bit of a problem deploying my plugin to my
server.  It works great locally when I use script/server to run my 
server.
However when I install my plugin into an Apache 2.2 mod_fcgid and fast 
cgi
environment, it doesn't work.  I'm receiving a really strange error, and 
I'm
not sure if its an installation issue.  I've copied my plugin from
"vendor/plugins/project_rank" to the server and placed it in the same
directory then ran these commands.


   1. export RAILS_ENV=production
   2. script/generate plugin_migration
   3. rake db:migrate

Everything migrates great, but when I try to hit my plugin directly via
"test-projects/project_rank/list" or via my overridden route of
"test-projects/projects/list", I receive a 500 error from the server. 
When
I check "error_log", I have the following error.

[error] [client 10.0.200.22] malformed header from script. Bad 
header=list:
dispatch.fcgi

I'm not sure why I'm getting bad headers, its just a different route. 
The
only thing different from test is the platorm, and I didn't generate the
plugin on this server.  Did I miss a step when I installed it?

thanks,
Todd

This is probably nothing specific to your plugin - as I recall this
error can be cause by things like stray puts statements and things
like that. The main rails mailing list should have some relevant
information.

HTH,

Thanks again James, you're a lifesaver!  I had some random "print" 
outputs
left from when I was printing http post information trying to figure out 
how
the sortable_element AJAX code works.  I removed the print statements 
and it
works great.  I think I'm finally done with my noob questions :).
