You could try setting it to a vhost and setting the configuration options that way. It should not interfere with other sites on the server. It will require an apache restart.

We are trying to install RoR on CentOS (Ruby 1.8.7 Rails 3.0.3 Gems 1.4.2 MongoDB 1.6.5)

Nothing we do is able to solve this problem without also taking down all the other websites on the server.

Any suggestions?
