You are running production in your webserver (presumably on port 80) and development on the command line. This is normal. They are separate contexts. The httpd config only applies to the Web server, not a terminal session. If you would start Webrick or other Rails server from the command line, it would run the development environment on port 3000. If you want to run in production mode from the command line, type "export RAILS_ENV=production" in bash or the equivalent in other shells (e.g. "RAILS_ENV=production; export RAILS_ENV" in sh).

Many thanks for your help with this
