Elle,
On second look, it looks like you've uploaded your app directly to the
"rails" folder.  Ideally they're setup is to create a "rails apps",
then all of your applications would be sub directories off of it.

e.g.
/rails_apps/site1/
/rails_apps/site2/

The instructions you've followed probably won't work without it being
in this format.
