Hi, I'm hoping someone can help me out. I'm a newbie and recently wanted to get my Rails/Radiant CMS app working with Apache. I am running Freebsd with ruby 18 and Radiant CMS. I installed Apache and then installed Phusion Passenger via gem. I followed the instructions and in Apache, pointed the DocumentRoot to my app's public folder.

Apache starts fine but when I open the webpage, it displays the content from the dispatch.fcgi file. I looked online and someone said to comment out the stuff in the .htaccess file. I did that and now when I go the page, it just lists an index of the files in my public folder instead of running my application. I've looked around online and can't seem to find a solution.

Below is the code from my httpd.conf file:

\<VirtualHost \*:80\> ServerName www.testapp.bounceme.net DocumentRoot /home/Raziel/www/famfit/public \<Directory /home/Raziel/www/famfit/public\> AllowOverride all Options -Multiviews Allow from all \</Directory\> \</VirtualHost\>

Any help would be appreciated.
