Hi,

I have switched from mongrel to passenger and need to get my apache  
config working correctly.

I used to have “ProxyPass /phpmyadmin !” and mongrel didnt try to  
process it.

How do I get apache to know the /phpmyadmin is not a rails project?

Must be pretty obvious but I haven’t figured it yet.

Thanks  
Giorgio

I have a similar problem, I just use another hostname that answers on  
the same db server.

Not really sure what you mean Anthony.  
Do you mean another virtual host?

Yes, for example I have a shared hosting plan that I can create hosts  
like [db.mysite.com](http://db.mysite.com) and [db.othersite.com](http://db.othersite.com) but they both point to the  
same db server, called [dbxxx.myhost.com](http://dbxxx.myhost.com). All of these are  
interchangable, so I can use the non RoR domain to access the RoR  
database.
