Michael,

Thanks SO much for helping me. I still haven't gotten the logs to
populate, even with root:www-data

No luck with your chown -R root:www-data testapp1
If restarted apache: /etc/init.d/apache2 restart
* Restarting web server apache2
... waiting ...done.

My symbolic link:
$ cd /var/www
$ ls -l
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root www-data 31 2010-03-21 07:55 testapp1 -> /home/
justinschier/www/testapp1

My home www folder:
$ cd /home/justinschier
$ ls -l
drwxrwxrwx 3 root www-data 4096 2010-03-20 08:02 www

My testapp1 folder:
$ cd /home/justinschier/www
$ ls -l
drwxrwxrwx 13 root www-data 4096 2010-03-20 08:02 testapp1

My log folder:
$ cd /home/justinschier/www/testapp1
$ ls -l
...
drwxrwxrwx 2 root www-data 4096 2010-03-20 08:02 log
... (everything's the same permissions and ownership as log)

My log files:
-rwxrwxrwx 1 root www-data 1676 2010-03-22 20:58 development.log
-rwxrwxrwx 1 root www-data 0 2010-03-20 08:02 production.log
-rwxrwxrwx 1 root www-data 0 2010-03-20 08:02 server.log
-rwxrwxrwx 1 root www-data 0 2010-03-20 08:02 test.log

I know the development.log is showing now, BUT that's because I tried
running WebBrick. That's why there's something in there.

My /public folder (no .htaccess file):
$ cd /home/justinschier/www/testapp1/public
$ ls -al
drwxrwxrwx 5 root www-data 4096 2010-03-22 08:21 .
drwxrwxrwx 13 root www-data 4096 2010-03-20 08:02 ..
-rwxrwxrwx 1 root www-data 947 2010-03-20 08:02 404.html
-rwxrwxrwx 1 root www-data 930 2010-03-20 08:02 422.html
-rwxrwxrwx 1 root www-data 948 2010-03-20 08:02 500.html
-rwxrwxrwx 1 root www-data 0 2010-03-20 08:02 favicon.ico
drwxrwxrwx 2 root www-data 4096 2010-03-20 08:02 images
-rwxrwxrwx 1 root www-data 7466 2010-03-20 08:02 index.html
drwxrwxrwx 2 root www-data 4096 2010-03-20 08:02 javascripts
-rwxrwxrwx 1 root www-data 204 2010-03-20 08:02 robots.txt
drwxrwxrwx 3 root www-data 4096 2010-03-22 15:30 stylesheets

Still when I run this, the log files don't grow at all:
http://testapp1.fuse.sonikserver.com/
Welcome Aboard Page loads correctly

http://testapp1.fuse.sonikserver.com/rails/info/properties
and I still get "We're sorry, but something went wrong"

Apache has instances running as both root and www-data:
$ ps aux | grep apache2

sbin/apache2 -k start
root 14206 0.0 0.0 7340 884 pts/0 S+ 12:27 0:00 grep
apache2

I even got rid of the symbolic link (above) and no change:

$ vi /etc/apache2/sites-available/default

Now reads:

... default part ommitted for this post ....

LoadModule passenger_module /var/lib/gems/1.8/gems/passenger-2.2.11/
ext/apache2/mod_passenger.so
PassengerRoot /var/lib/gems/1.8/gems/passenger-2.2.11
PassengerRuby /usr/bin/ruby1.8

</VirtualHost>

Man, I am so out of ideas. Anything else you can think of for me to
try?

Thanks again SOOO much. If you have an Amazon wish list, I'm totally
buying you something.
