Don't use FastCGI module, the binaries referred in the tutorial are too old to properly work with newer Ruby and even worse with Ruby 1.9.2 If you're just doing development and don't plan to run this as production, you can avoid Apache from the equation and use "rails server" to run your Rails application. -- Luis Lavena -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.
