Default behavior on unrecognized route in development and production environment

Rails
1

Hello,
The default behavior for a new rails 2.1 with mongrel 1.1.5 for an
unrecognized route in both a production and development environment is
to generate a Routing Exception.

I was under the impression the default in production should be to
render 404.html file found in the public directory. Please see my
pastie at http://pastie.org/226508 for how I tested this. I also
tested it in ff3 w/the same exception. Am I missing something or
doing something incorrectly?
Thanks,
Jonathan

The default behavior is for RecordNotFound exceptions to display a 404.
I
don’t believe that’s true for routiing exceptions.

It’s also the case that requests form localhost are handled
differently (when dealing with what is displayed when an error
occurs).

Ahh that’s right! I forgot about that!
