To install on your site an application written in Ruby:
1 On your Home page, under Hosting, click Setup.
2 Select the CGI and FastCGI check boxes, and click OK.
3 Connect to your FTP account, change to the /htdocs directory, and create a subdirectory where the application files will reside. Let’s call this directory your_application, for illustration purposes.
4 Upload the application files to the httpsdocs/your_application directory.
5 Create a file with name .htaccess in this directory, open it with a text editor of your choice and add the following lines into the file:
RewriteEngine On RewriteRule ^$ /public/index.html [L]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !^/your_application/public
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ /public/$1 [L] RewriteCond
%{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f RewriteRule ^(.*)$
public/dispatch.fcgi/$1 [QSA,L]
6 Save the file.
7 Remove the file your_application/public/.htaccess
8 Open the file your_application/public/dispatch.fcgi with a text editor and put the following lines there: #!/usr/bin/ruby
9 Save the file.
Now the web application will be accessible at the following URL: http://yourdomain.com/your_application.
