Mongrel_cluster --prefix and static content

Hi Everyone

I have been searching for an answer for this all day, stumbling from
page to page trying examples that don’t work!

Anyway, I am trying to run multiple Rails apps sitting behind
Apache2.2.

It is nearly there, apart from the static content (images, etc) is not
delivered anymore (since configuring mongrel with --prefix flag).
Note: this only applies to URLs not generated by Rails, such as those
in CSS files.

I can understand why, for instance the CSS files contain links such as
url(/images/foo.jpg) which work quite happily when mongrel is
delivering only one app and does not need to be configured with –
prefix…

I thought that Apache Rewrite rules would be the answer, however I am
not competent enough in their use to construct them myself yet, I
found some on the Internet but alas this failed.

Short of modifying all the links to include the prefix to match
mongrel, I am at a loss on what to do!

Any help with be greatly appreciated!

Kind Regards,

Steven
