Hello- I’m having some difficulty with Subdomain Fu (or my app, not to falsely accuse). I have two controllers: home and account\_root. I want the home controller to be used whenever someone goes to [www.myapp.com](http://www.myapp.com) and I want account\_root to be used if someone goes to [myaccount.myapp.com](http://myaccount.myapp.com). I set up the following routes: map.account\_root ‘’, :controller =\> ‘account\_root’, :conditions =\> { :subdomain =\> /.+/ } map.root :controller =\> ‘home’ This is similar to what was done in episode 123 of RailsCasts. The problem is that the condition doesn’t seem to be working. Regardless of what URL I go to, I always get sent to the account\_root controller. Does anyone know what I might be doing wrong? Regards- Eric ---

After banging my head on this same issue I found this: [http://mbleigh.lighthouseapp.com/projects/13148/tickets/1-subdomain-route-conditions#ticket-1-6](http://mbleigh.lighthouseapp.com/projects/13148/tickets/1-subdomain-route-conditions#ticket-1-6) The fix for me was to install it as a plugin in my Rails app, not as a gem.
