[Rails] Multiple application deployments on a single Apache host

[Damon Clinkscales]

Hi Everyone,

I am setting up Rails for a team of developers to be able to set up 
their own apps easily to play with Rails.  Ideally this would look 
something like:

http://servername/app1/list
http://servername/app2/edit/0
http://servername/app3/show/1
etc...

all on the same server, on port 80

All of the examples I have seen have you set up a single app at a time 
with its own host.  I looked at the FAQ and didn't see anything.  Can I 
have a single host in Apache with multiple "/public" directories that 
run different Rails apps?

What I've done in the meantime is gone with a new port for each app, 
adding this section to httpd.conf for new apps

Listen 3000
  < VirtualHost theipaddresshere:3000>
  DocumentRoot /Users/admin/rails/bin/App1/public
  ServerName servername.domain.com

  <Directory "/Users/bob/rails/bin/App1/public/" >
  Options ExecCGI FollowSymLinks
  AddHandler cgi-script .cgi
  AllowOverride all
  Order allow,deny
  Allow from all
  </Directory>

  </VirtualHost>

Obviously this isn't ideal, but it works fine for testing.  I'm running 
on Mac OS X Panther Server.

Thanks for any ideas!

Damon
