[Locomotive-users] Odd deployment issue from Loco -> DreamHost

[Paul Welty]

Thanks very much for the advice. I tried that. I got 'which ruby' and 'ruby
-v' to return the right things on DreamHost. But, still no difference in
behavior.

So, now I'm wondering if somehow rails isn't using the new ruby. Is there a
Rails status screen or something that would tell me which ruby it's using so
I could compare that to Locomotive? (I tried the /rails/info/ but it doesn't
seem to work at all anymore.)
