Your site needs a root of some sort. If some index file does not exist in public/ (index.html|htm, default.html|htm, etc) then you need to tell your rails app where to go.
You can do this by editing your routes.rb (found in your config/ folder) and adding the line root :to => 'somecontroller#index" somecontroller represents the controller to use, and index represents the method that it should handle. typically index is preferred, which will render index.html.erb You can find out more about routes by typing rake routes in your console.
