Help. Static, add-on domain is not displaying

Hello,
  I have an add-on domain, cherrybirchfarm.com, which I am using for a static web site. I have:
1) created a folder for it at the root level.
2) added "RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} ^/cherrybirchfarm.*" to the .htaccess file of my main application.
3) Following the tutorials, created a symlink in the /public_html directory to the directory for my add-on domain.

The problem is, when I go to the URL, www.cherrybirchfarm.com, I get a rails error, "Application error. Rails application failed to start properly". However when I go directly to the start page, www.cherrybirchfarm.com/index.html, the page is displayed fine.

Can anyone tell me what I'm missing? How can I make the domain address display the default webpage?

Thanks,
   William

could you check this again ?
http://www.cherrybirchfarm.com/ is working fine now.

That's great, it's working this morning. I didn't do anything to it but I'll take it:)

I have the same problem described in the first post of this thread with my new addon domain artisanalroasters.com.

I have other domains that I would like to have point to the same static site.  Should I do them all now or wait until this first one is working properly.
Thanks,
Jee

Life is too short for this ...
Please add the following entries in the .htaccess file of your addon domain.
RewriteEngine on
RewriteRule / /index.html
