redirect to a subdomain in rails 3

I just set up my rails 3 on Amazon EC2 with apache2 and passenger.

Everything is working great but when I created my first project inside /var/www/html/ror/public/ the project does not show up. I tried mydomain.com/example which is the name of my project and it gives me an index of my rails project that I generated earlier. When I say index I mean a list of all the folders without rendering any html from the views. I guess my question is: how do I redirect the user to mydomain.com/example/app/views/example/index.html.erb

I tried playing around with httpd.conf and 开发者_运维技巧but nothing seems to work out.

Thanks

You are facing problems in deploying the site. Follow this -

1. Create a virtual host

   $ sudo nano /etc/apache2/sites-available/app-name

2. Change the contents of the virtual host to

   <VirtualHost *:80>  
       ServerName  A.B.C.D  
       ServerAlias subdomain.abc.com  
       DocumentRoot /var/www/app-name/current/public
       RackEnv production
   </VirtualHost>
   

3. Enable the new site

   $ sudo a2ensite demo-app

4. Restart Apache

   $ sudo /etc/init.d/apache2 restart

Make sure you mention the correct document root.

DocumentRoot /var/www/app-name/current/public

You need to add RailsBaseURI /ror/public to your apache config.

Or, symlink:

mkdir /var/rails
mv /var/www/html/ror /var/rails
cd /var/www/html
ln -s /var/www/html/ror/public ror

(shouldn't put Rails app sources in your apache document tree)

and then RailsBaseURI /ror

Your app will be at example.com/ror
