Installing under Apache on a shared host

Greetings,

I am am trying to run Redmine on my Bluehost account.

I know very little about RoR.

There is support for RoR apps on Bluehost. I have a simple CRUD demo running http://first.itaservices.net/people/ so I know there is support and have demonstrated some competence.

Since it is hosted I am not able to open a port, change apache, ...

ruby 1.8.6 (2009-06-08 patchlevel 369) [x86_64-linux]

Rails 2.3.4

I installed the 0.8.5 files, created databases, Modified database.yml, used the same technique to create the subdomain as above

raking worked fine

copied dispatch.fcgi.example to dispatch.fcgi

.htaccess is the same as is working with the demo app

I get an application error when I try to start Redmine.
Application error
Rails application failed to start properly again!

I added the again! as a sanity check.

I get no output from
RailsFCGIHandler.process! '/home/itaserv1/redmine-0.8.5/fcgi_crash.log'

I would appreciate some guidance.

the saga continues

I managed to freeze Ruby at 2.1.2. I can run console and get dev environment 2.1.2.

Still fails to start.

help!!!

I was able to get it working.

steps in addition to above:

I duplicated the permission structure from a generated app by hand. I did a simple extract on the host from an uploaded zip file so the permissions were incorrect.

If I knew something about Ruby I could have run in development mode and gotten something more meaningful than 500 errors.
