Hello,
I’m migrating some ruby on rails sites from one server to a new one.
(both freebsd 6.x) Rails was setup previously by someone else. I’ve
already installed rubygem rails from ports, and I’m using the same
httpd.conf and httpd-vhosts.conf files from the old machine. when I
transfer over the Ruby sites, all I get is a directory index.
Can anybody suggest where I should start troubleshooting?
Thanks
Ray

Presumably in the log files. Ruby / Rails needs FastCGI (www/fcgi and
www/mod_fastcgi port) with Apache to run, so you might want to check
out, if
your new server has FastCGI support.
I dropped FastCGI in favor of nginx / mongrel a long time ago on my FBSD
boxes, but let me know if you run into trouble.
Regards,
András

Thank you for your suggestions. I found part of the problem.
problem 1 fixed: document root was incorrect.
mod_fastcgi wasn’t installed, but it wasn’t installed on the old
server
either. The old server seems to be using mod_fcgid.
now, when I go to the URL, I get a 500 error instead of a list of
files.
I’ve included error log exceperts and a little other info below.
Any suggestions on where to go from here?
Thanks, Ray
okay, from errorlogs

If I understand, this doesn’t give the cause of the 500 error, it just
tells
me “change your code” ( or don’t upgrade to rails 2.0)
I installed mod_fastcgi and now:
from phpinfo (sorry, I use php, I don’t know Ruby)
under apache modules I get
…mod_fcgid… mod_fastcgi
