Hi, i am having trouble trying to set up a RoR site using cpanel. The main thing that i do not understand is that when i create the site using cpnael RoR utility it saids that after that i have to populate it with my code, so for example if a created with cpanel a RoR site called “test” then i have in my root something like public\_html/test and in test folder all the RoR directory structure. So i Delete all that dircetory structure inside test directory and upload the into it the directory structure of the site that i already created in my local PC. After that i hit run button in cpnael i can navigate to the public/ index of my RoR site, but when i try to call some controller/view in just trought me an error telling that something go wrong. Any idea? Do i have to configure something special in my RoR app for run in in my server? Regards PD: In the server is already installed redmine and it works fine, so the problem is something with my app ☹ ---
