I'm working on a pair of sites for a client that will be on two
subdomains and hosted on a shared host (Dreamhost). I thought the
multi-site extension would be ideal for that but have not yet figured
out how to do this under Phusion Passenger, the preferred Rails
deployment method at DH.

I did a similar thing for another client using the FastCGI method; I
created a mirror public directory for the dev host; the dev subdomain
points to that mirrored directory. The mirror dir contains mostly links
back into the public dir,  except for the .htaccess which has different
mod_rewrite rules. I tried doing the same thing under Passenger without
success.

Has anyone done anything similar under Passenger? I'm searching the
Passenger groups & docs but have not yet found anything useful.

FWIW: the Passenger docs say that mod_rewrite is overridden/ignored unless you explicitly turn it on with some httpd.conf keyword that I can't remember. However, I saw a post somewhere once upon a time that claimed that rewrite rules simply didn't work in the .htaccess, with or without that keyword - but that they did work in httpd.conf itself.

I'm successfully using a rewrite rule in httpd.conf for static caching:

  RewriteEngine On
  RewriteRule ^([^.]+)$ /cache/$1.html [QSA]

That help any?  What failed under Passenger?

Thanks!

Bill
