title: Server unable to find public folder in rails 3 production environment
body: <p>I'm using the latest rails 3 beta. The app works fine in development mode, but when I start the server in production mode via <code>rails server -e production</code>, it seems that the <code>public</code> folder can't be found. I get error messages like:</p>
  
  <pre><code>ActionController::RoutingError (No route matches "/javascripts/jquery.js"):
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>And similar messages for everything that should be in the <code>public</code> folder.
  I've tried this with both mongrel and webrick. I'd appreciate any help.</p>
