Forum: RForum rforum installation at Site 5.

I followed the readme instructions, and I changed the paths is 
dispatch.fcgi and dispatch.rb to show Ruby in #!/usr/bin/ruby

My site still is not resolving.
http://www.spiritualityproject.com


So, it seems that the .htaccess file is rewriting the root to show:
http://www.spiritualityproject.com/forum

There is a controller called forum, so I don't understand why it would
not be showing up.
I validated that this .htaccess file was changing the root url by
putting in different root controller names.

It may have something to do with the fact that there are not any
forums or posts to display.

The installation readme suggested that I need to create a new user by
navigating to:
http://www.spritualityproject.com/user/register

However, this gives me:
The error was: "lost network connection"

So, I'm not sure what's going on.

thanks,
Bryan

The application is crashing on startup causing the errors that you're 
seeing.

Are there any additional gems that rForum requires?

I'm wonder if it's just not possible to install Rforum at Site5.com

I deleted the un--needed files lang files.

I changed the paths is dispatch.fcgi and dispatch.rb to show Ruby in
#!/usr/bin/ruby

I'm still getting the same errors..
â??lost network connectionâ? (NSURLErrorDomain:-1005)

How did you find the error you posted above?
I'm not seeing any errors in the apache error log

My app log files ( /home/spiritua/rforum/trunk/log ) are not being 
updated either, so I can't use that to diagnose the problem.

I tried to change
.htaccess now to point to dispatch.cgi

I got an Application Error @ root
http://www.spiritualityproject.com

This could be because there are no users or posts.
When I go to:
http://www.spiritualityproject.com/user/register

The same error.
If this were really an application error, wouldn't it be logging the 
errors in
~/rforum/trunk/log

Any idea what this error is?
[Tue May 16 15:44:23 2006] [error] [client 68.180.72.85] Premature end
of script headers: /home/spiritua/public_html/dispatch.cgi

it is. I have it close...

The Ferret plugin is tricky. 0.9.6 is the only one that seems to let the 
app load.
Everything is great except that I had to add a route to make it not 
throw a "Forum not found" error with just the domainn inn the address 
bar.

but now.... I get this garbage when i try to post a new tpic when 
loggged in as admin. I found another post here:
http://www.ruby-forum.com/topic/84738
that said i needed to upgrade Ferret. But i can;t cause then rForum.

I am starting to think that rForum is not ready for release at all.

Has anyone noticed that if you put any special charicters in the search 
box it throws an error (without even a 505 page)?

Also it does not seem to run with edge rails but i di not fool around 
with that tpp much.
An help would be appriciated regardinng the below error
Thanks,
