Creating a Rewrite for Ruby on Rails Application in cPanel
Creating a Rewrite for Ruby on Rails Application in cPanel
Ruby on Rails uses its own server, users visiting your Ruby on Rails application will need to be redirected to the appropriate port.
Because Ruby on Rails uses its own server, users visiting your website (and subsequently your Ruby on Rails application) will need to be redirected to the appropriate port.
Ruby does not respond on the standard HTTP port number, 80. Thus, visitors would need to specify the port number with the domain — for example, example.com:12001.
To configure a rewrite for Ruby on Rails Application in cPanel
1. Log into cPanel.
2. Navigate to the Software/Services section of your cPanel interface.
3. Click the Ruby on Rails icon. This step will open the Ruby on Rails management interface.
4. Click the Create Rewrite button corresponding to the appropriate application in the Create A Rewrite table.
