(and when I tried to do something slightly different, it took me a good hour to configure it properly with all the rewrite magic) also when applications 'experts' like scott (the creator of typo) have issues like http://scottstuff.net/blog/articles/2005/07/20/apache-tuning-for-rails-and-fastcgi i think it isn't easy enough to run. what I am after is something as simple as RailsApp /foo/ rails-controller.rb [cache] [ENV=production] which would just work as a in-process application... making it as simple as running a PHP application is the goal. I don't like the trend i see with rails & django people saying apache is hard to use and switching to other web servers. > -garrett >
