In the past this worked perfect. However, this weekend I started
rebuilding a rails server. I can get it running ok, but when I get
the “Welcome abaord, you’re riding rails” welcome screen, I click on
the “About your application’s environment” link and it drops down and
says “The requested URL /rails/info/properties was not found”. If I
use Webrick and navigate to http://localhost:3000/ and click it, it
works fine.
So I’m guessing it has something to do with the way rails works with
apache? But I can’t find an answer anywhere how/where to fix it?

/rails/info/properties is only available in development environment.
If you run the application in production environment then that URI
will not be recognized.
The best way to deploy a Rails application on Windows is outlined in the
“Deploying Rails Applications” book from Prags. Use Apache 2.2 with
mod_proxy_balance and several Mongrels installed as Windows Services.
It’s
the most stable and scalable solution.
I think one reason to remove the .htaccess file was to discourage the
use of
fastcgi. I don’t long for those days, personally.
