Nginx can't run Rails page

Question

I want to use nginx as my Rails development server.I installed nginx and passenger.

My nginx configuration file is :

http{
      passenger_root /home/hxh/.rvm/gems/ruby-1.9.3-p448/gems/passenger-4.0.26;
      passenger_ruby /home/hxh/.rvm/wrappers/ruby-1.9.3-p448/ruby;
      include       mime.types;
      default_type  application/octet-stream;
      server {
        listen       80;
        server_name  localhost;
        root /home/hxh/share/ruby/sport;
        passenger_enabled on;
        rails_env development;
       }
}

But when I run the server,I got the error:

404 Not Found

nginx/1.4.4

why the nginx didn't identify the Rails page.

Yes,I can sure this.Because I have placed a html file in this directory,and I can visit this page in broswer. — HXH

You need to point the root to the public folder, if /home/hxh/share/ruby/sport is indeed your project folder, then replace it with /home/hxh/share/ruby/sport/public

Looks like you are missing couple of settings.

Try with below configuration, It supposed to work.

http {
  passenger_root /home/hxh/.rvm/gems/ruby-1.9.3-p448/gems/passenger-4.0.26;
  passenger_ruby /home/hxh/.rvm/wrappers/ruby-1.9.3-p448/ruby;
  include       mime.types;
  default_type  application/octet-stream;
  passenger_max_pool_size 10;
  access_log  off;
  sendfile        on;
  keepalive_timeout  65;
  gzip  on;


  server {
    listen       80;
    server_name  localhost;
    location / {
      root   /home/hxh/share/ruby/sport/public;
      passenger_enabled on;
      rails_env production;
    }
  }
}

Note:

Your are missing location
Your application root should point public folder
Application root directory should have full execution permission

Thanks for your answer,the issue is my root should set to /home/hxh/share/ruby/sport/public.And after my test,the location isn't necessary.
