Rails

I am having the hardest time in the world trying to get a clients
production server to run Rails. Not only does he want this one
application to run though, he wants any client of his to be able to
run a rails app. I’m going crazy trying to get this to work because I
can’t even get one app to properly run.

I get a Rails Failed to Start error, so I’ve resorted trying to debug
what is going on. I am trying to debug dispatch.fcgi but obviously
some crazy ***** is happening. Can anyone help figure this out?

Thanks.

ruby -d public/dispatch.fcgi

You are missing a whole bunch of gems. On the machine that is working
type:

gem list --local

and then compare that list with the results of the above command on the
production machine that’s not working.

That’s what I figured. But when I try something like gem install
utf8proc_native - it doesn’t exist.

That’s cause the gem is called “utf8proc”.

Haha well thanks - weird that all these gems are missing. I never had
to install them on any of my machines.

Okay, so I installed the gems but it seems like the application still
can’t find the gems. This is pretty weird now. The one that scares me
the most is this one:

Exception `NameError’ at ./…/config/boot.rb:14 - uninitialized
constant Rails

So, any idea on why it can’t find anything?

Make sure that CGI support is on for the domain in the Domain Setup
found in the
Plesk control panel.

It is enabled…
