Recognition failed for "/rails_info/properties"

Hello. I can’t figure out why I’m getting the following problem, or
how to fix it.

I have Rails 1.1.0 installed on both OS X and Solaris, and in both new
and old projects, and using either WEBrick or lighttpd, I get:

Recognition failed for “/rails_info/properties”

when lining to it off the welcome to rails page. I get the following
errors through the console:

ActionController::RoutingError (Recognition failed for
“/rails_info/properties”):

Forunately, script/about works:

Same problem on Linux with ruby-1.8.2 using latest edge rails, r4132.

For me, even script/about doesn’t work in r4132 unless I unfreeze back
to rails 1.0.

Well, I figured it out. The index just needs to link to
/rails/info/properties instead of /rails_info/properties. So, there was
nothing actually wrong with my installation :wink:
