Ah yes, here's the solution I landed on =>
require 'mongrel/handlers.rb'
class MultipleDirHandler < Mongrel::DirHandler
# check in each folder for the file
def initialize(*path)
@paths = path
super(@paths[0])
end
# check each folder
def can_serve(path_info)
@paths.each do|path|
@path = File.expand_path(path) # to allow RAILS_ROOT
ret = super(path_info)
return ret unless ret.nil?
end
@path = @paths[0]
return nil
end
end
Working really well. Thank you!

Piece of cake. Let's say I want a rails public directory to be at both /
and at /newplace/ then I just do this:
1) Put this in a mongrel.conf file:
uri "/newplace", :handler => DirHandler.new("public")
2) Run mongrel like this:
mongrel_rails start -S mongrel.conf
3) Go to http://localhost:3000/newplace/ and you see the same thing as
http://localhost:3000/
That's it.
