Nginx-Mongrel almost working; just need a little help

your config looks copy right off from Ruby on Rails Blog / What is Ruby on Rails for? , seems fine.

try "server_name joehost.com www.joehost.com"

there's also a nginx config generator "gem install nginx_config_generator"

below is mine,         upstream groups {                ip_hash;                server localhost:3000;                server localhost:3001;         }         server {                 listen 80;                 server_name groups.wuyasea.com;

                access_log /u/apps/groups/current/log/access_log main;                 error_log /u/apps/groups/current/log/error_log info;

                root /u/apps/groups/current/public;

                location / {                   # needed to forward user's IP address to rails                   proxy_set_header X-Real-IP $remote_addr;

                  # needed for HTTPS                   proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-For $proxy_add_x_forwarded_for;                   proxy_set_header Host $http_host;                   proxy_redirect false;                   proxy_max_temp_file_size 0;

                  if (!-f $request_filename) {                     proxy_pass http://groups;                     break;                   }                 }         }
