Hi to all.  
I’m a newbye, and this is my first contact with list.

I have installed ruby and rails.  
My ruby local home page works, but development.log tell me  
"Permission denied -  
/var/www/html/rubyapp/…/config/…/tmp/sessions//ruby\_sess.e2677250ed380e4c  
"

what’s happen?  
I think permission rights are ok  
(simlink towards public are root|root with 777).

Someone can help me please ?  
Thank’s in advantage.
