Question

Rails (RoR) app not working

Posted February 23, 2016 3.3k views
Ruby on RailsPostgreSQL

Hello, today I deployed my app in a server, I followed this tutorial( [https://www.digitalocean.com/community/tutorials/how-to-use-the-ruby-on-rails-one-click-application-on-digitalocean](http://) ), went everything OK, but when I access my app by IP I receive the error 500. The software works locally perfectly. How can I know where is the problem?

    Can you post your nginx configuration file? 500s could be your config (passing requests through nginx to the ror app) or it could be your RoR app that is crashing somehow (maybe file permissions, bad configuration etc.)

    If your rails app is logging/outputing erros at all when the requests hit it, that would be helpful to post as well.
