After installing ROR, I get the following message under “About your  
application environment” in the opening. I assume it is dispatch.fcgi.  
Could anyone help me what I need to do?

#!C:/wamp/ruby/bin/ruby

# 

# You may specify the path to the FastCGI crash log (a log of unhandled

# exceptions which forced the FastCGI instance to exit, great for

debugging)

# and the number of requests to process before running garbage

collection.

# 

# By default, the FastCGI crash log is RAILS\_ROOT/log/fastcgi.crash.log

# and the GC period is nil (turned off). A reasonable number of

requests

# could range from 10-100 depending on the memory footprint of your app.

# 

# Example:

# # Default log path, normal GC behavior.

# RailsFCGIHandler.process!

# 

# # Default log path, 50 requests between GC.

# RailsFCGIHandler.process! nil, 50

# 

# # Custom log path, normal GC behavior.

# RailsFCGIHandler.process! ‘/var/log/myapp\_fcgi\_crash.log’

# 

require File.dirname( **FILE** ) + “/…/config/environment”  
require ‘fcgi\_handler’

RailsFCGIHandler.process!
