Subject: Re: mod_ruby and Apache ForceType

One other approach that I've used is to use mod_rewrite to cause some
scripts to be interpreted as ruby scripts.  In this case I am causing
certain URLS to be transparently redirected to a fastcgi script that
happens to be a ruby script:

<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine on
RewriteLog logs/rewrite_log
RewriteLogLevel 0

# don't use controller to process requests for static files
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} .*\.(gif|jpg|png|css|js)$
RewriteRule .* - [L]

# send all other requests into the controller ruby script
RewriteRule ^.*$ /controller.fcgi [L,T=fastcgi-script]
</IfModule>
