Hi ,

I am a newbie to RoR. When I start mongrel\_rails , I can access my app.  
on  
[http://localhost:3000](http://localhost:3000) fine. However, when I start the mongrelcluster,  
I cannot access it on [http://localhost:3001](http://localhost:3001) (which is what ideally be  
the  
case?). I don’t see any errors in the logs as well:

/opt/blog/log]# ps -aef|grep mong

Can you please suggest what I am doing wrong?

Thanks,
