Hi All,

I’m a total newbie when it comes to Rails.  
At the moment, i’m trying to deploy my super-simple rails apps on  
bluehost  
account and i have been having troubles for a couple of days.  
I really appreciate it if there is anyone that can provide some  
insights.

I’m following:  
[http://helpdesk.bluehost.com/kb/index.php?x=&mod\_id=2&id=232](http://helpdesk.bluehost.com/kb/index.php?x=&mod_id=2&id=232)

My first upload was okay, provided i didn’t use any plugin at all (  
[http://first.dailyremarkable.com/](http://first.dailyremarkable.com/)).  
But now, when i try to re-upload my site with plugin (custom-err-msg),  
it  
throws me “Rails application failed to start properly”.  
Have a look on: [http://blindoptimists.dailyremarkable.com/](http://blindoptimists.dailyremarkable.com/)

What should I do?

Btw, does anyone have any real-working guides on how to deploy Rails on  
share hosting (especially, Bluehost)?

Thank you very much for the answer. Appreciate it.

Cheers,  
Hendro
