Dreamhost & Rails

Hello, I want to start my app in dreamhost but it's impossible!! I emailed with support team, and I chatted with them, but every solutions was the same that I did.

I create an app in SSH:

$ script/generate controller home index

I have to create manually the files .htacces and dispatch.fcgi.

I changed databases.yml with my database configuration.

I went to my homepage and I see the message "Welcome aboard" of Rails. Then, I deleted the index in public folder and chaged routes.rb and the result in my homepage was:

Index of /aplicacion/public

      Name Last modified Size Description       Parent Directory -       404.html 14-Jan-2010 16:27 947       500.html 14-Jan-2010 16:27 948       dispatch.fcgi 14-Jan-2010 16:31 380       favicon.ico 14-Jan-2010 16:27 0       images/ 14-Jan-2010 16:27 -       javascripts/ 14-Jan-2010 16:27 -       robots.txt 14-Jan-2010 16:27 204       stylesheets/ 14-Jan-2010 16:27 -

Support team only says "see the wiki" but I followed everything! :frowning:

Jorge, are you using Passenger with your Rails deployment? If not,

I would recommend that you do because these files are not required

for deployment. Next, the path to your public directory should follow

the pattern:

/home///public

Finally, I would recommend setting up capistrano and including your

with the deployed Rails application. One can use the Bundler gem for

this purpose.
