Rails, apache and HSPcomplete

Hello,

I have a virtual server which I use to host a number of websites. It
uses HSPcomplete control panel software to manage all my domains and
everything.

I would really like to set up Rails on my server, because Rails is now
my web development framework of choice. I have installed Rails on my
Mac, using lighttpd, and had no problems there.

However, I have no idea on the effect on installing Rails on the
HSPcomplete which effectively manages my server (on my Fedora Core
webserver).

I don’t mind having to modify the apache httpd.conf file by hand to
provide Rails support for each domain, but I can’t risk this screwing up
HSPcomplete.

Has anyone here done similar, or have any advice at all?

Thanks
Jon
