i’m trying to get ror running for radiant on my shared server. i know  
that it’s pointed to the right directory and everything but I think  
the dispatch.fcgi is having problems.

this is what shows up on the page. I don’t know where to look to solve  
this because I’m a total newbie! thx!

# You may specify the path to the FastCGI crash log (a log of

unhandled

# exceptions which forced the FastCGI instance to exit, great for

debugging)

# and the number of requests to process before running garbage

collection.

# 

# By default, the FastCGI crash log is RAILS\_ROOT/log/

fastcgi.crash.log

# and the GC period is nil (turned off). A reasonable number of

requests

# could range from 10-100 depending on the memory footprint of your

app.

# 

# Example:

# # Default log path, normal GC behavior.

# RailsFCGIHandler.process!

# 

# # Default log path, 50 requests between GC.

# RailsFCGIHandler.process! nil, 50

# 

# # Custom log path, normal GC behavior.

# RailsFCGIHandler.process! ‘/var/log/myapp\_fcgi\_crash.log’

# 

require File.dirname( **FILE** ) + “/…/config/environment”  
require ‘fcgi\_handler’

RailsFCGIHandler.process!
