I've got an Apache2 testbed server set up to do some work with Ruby and
RoR... As part of the setup I installed mod_ruby so that Apache can
process Ruby scripts, as well as eRuby so that I can embed Ruby in html
files.  I'm not exactly sure which module is doing this, so I mention
both of them, but here's the behavior I'm seeing...

Under /var/www I have three directories, ./cgi-bin, ./eruby, ./ruby.
There are currently no files in either ./cgi-bin or ./ruby.  In ./eruby,
there is a single .rhtml file, which just has a simple <%print "Hello
World"%> in the body.  If I load the page explicitly
(http://www.heyblinkin.net/eruby/index.rhtml), I see the expected
result, "Hello World".  If, however, I enter www.heyblinkin.net/eruby, I
am met with 500 Internal Server Error.

Inspecting the error.log for apache shows Ruby errors, stating that Ruby
attempted to evaluate a directory.  This explains the error, however,
once I implemented a fix that I thought should work, namely, adding
index.rhtml to the list of files that DirectoryIndex takes, I still get
this error.

To complicate matters, I have apache set up so that users get
public_html directories with corresponding ./cgi-bin and ./eruby
directories.  I have a similar index.rhtml file in my
~/public_html/eruby directory, and loading
www.heyblinkin.net/~user_name/eruby/ gives the expected result, namely,
"Hello World".  It opens the index.rhtml file that I added to the
DirectoryIndex field and does not complain.

Is there something else I need to add to my /var/www/eruby directory?
It's not a major problem, but it is a little annoying.  Any help is
appreciated.
