Hi,
I found this by John Long on the ruby archive
http://www.ruby-forum.com/topic/82446
He wrote:
"I wouldn't recommend running Radiant in a sub-directory. It isn't
designed with this in mind.If you'd like to just have Radiant serve files
from a specific directory, the simplest thing would be to change the
rewrite rules inthe .htaccess file (or equivalent for your Web server).
What exactly are you trying to do? and why?"
What I'm trying to do is to set two different websites like this:
mydomain.org/app1
mydomain.org/app2
mydomain.org is an institution comprised of two departments. Each
department wants to have their own database and their cms to administer
their websites.
I'll explain what I've done so far:
In my httpd.conf I've included
<IfModule mod_fcgid.c>
AddHandler fcgid-script .fcgi
IPCCommTimeout 40
IPCConnectTimeout 10
DefaultInitEnv RAILS_ENV production
SocketPath /tmp/fcgidsock
</IfModule>
And,
I've made a ln -s from home/myapp/public/ to /var/www/html/myapp
That way when I go to mydomain.org/myapp I get the main page of my website.
>From there on, all the autogenerated links (ex. sitemap snippet) direct me
to mydomain.org/link instead of to mydomain.org/myapp/link
The thing is that I've tried a bunch of different combinations and nothing
seems to make a difference.
1) I've created a virtual host for myapp
2) I've included in my environment.rb
ActionController::AbstractRequest.relative_url_root = "/myapp"
3) In .htaccess I've uncommented RewriteBase /myapp
4) And I've followed the following articles in configuration combinations
I can't even remember

Is this a Radiant problem then? I got the idea of multiple Radiant's in
sbdirectories form Dave Thomas' Agile Web Development with Rails.
