My suggestion is to use a subdomain like rails.mydomain.com instead, and set up your server to serve up the rails app from a different directory structure than (www.)mydomain.com. However, if you do go the subdirectory way, you need configure your server to drive your rails app from that path. You can use passenger with either method under either apache or nginx. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.
