No, its not local network. In local network i can setup with
any domain name in hosts file and i can access the rails app with that
domain name in my browser.
Problem is, i have server ip address with global access. But i
don't have domain name for that server.
If I mention 121.0.0.1 mysite.com <http://mysite.com> in my
server hosts file, i know i cant access mysite.com
<http://mysite.com> in my local browser.
On your server system and on your client (local) system (all assuming
you cannot set it up in dns) you need to have the server associated with
the ip. On the server it is as simple as putting '127.0.0.1 localhost
mysite' in the /etc/hosts file and on the client (local) system you
would put '121.0.0.1 mysite' in the /etc/hosts file (this assumes that
121.0.0.1 is the address of the server). In your virtual host file you
would list the server name as mysite. You are making this all too complex.
You do not need to mess with domains etc. if you have the static ip and
hostname information available.

I am trying to setup like ServerName server_ip_address/mysite
instead of ServerName mysite.com/mysite <http://mysite.com/mysite>
I think we can only give mysite.com <http://mysite.com>.
mysite.com/mysite <http://mysite.com/mysite> will not point rails
application.

It sounds like you are setting this up for localhost viewing, or
on a local network. My answers are somewhat specific to this,
particularly the part about your hosts file.

ServerName takes a hostname, not an IP address or path. Try
mysite.com <http://mysite.com> instead.

If your Rails app is called "Projects", then this line looks correct.

Ditto, this path should match the DocumentRoot line.

If you had set up the server to respond to mysite.com
<http://mysite.com>, and the server was running, then you would
point your browser to mysite.com/ <http://mysite.com/> and see
whatever you had configured your root path to be.

In your hosts file, you would put
xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx mysite.com <http://mysite.com>
A DNS record like this would point *from* an IP *to* a virtual
host. In production, you would set up your public server to
respond to your actual domain name, and you would have your DNS
hosting provider point your domain to the public IP address of
your actual server.
