Hi Monks,

Whatever the requested URL, all I get is either the default start page of Poet framework or a static index.html when provided in another directory registered in conf/global.cfg poet file env.comp_dir = [...].

For debugging purposes, I edited the Poet's standard index.mc file to contain the following:

<p>Request info: <% $m->req->env->{SCRIPT_NAME} %>
This is the default home page generated by <code><% $m->request_path %
+>.</p>

This outputs:
Request info: /demo.mc This is the default home page generated by /.
Seems like Plack does know the requested path but doesn't forward it to Poet/Mason. How come? I append some configuration you might need, please tell if you need for any other: 
# in httpd.conf of Apache 2.4
LoadModule fcgid_module modules/mod_fcgid.so
<IfModule fcgid_module>
        #FcgidIPCDir "/tmp/fcgidsock"
        FcgidMaxProcessesPerClass 100
</IfModule>
<Directory "/usr/local/my_site">
    Require all granted
</Directory>

<Location />
    SetHandler fcgid-script
    Options +ExecCGI
    FcgidWrapper "/usr/local/my_site/bin/start-fcgi.sh" virtual
    Require all granted
</Location>

# in start-fcgi.sh is just one line after shebang:
#   exec plackup -s FCGI app.psgi

# in /usr/local/my_site/conf/global.cfg
env:
   comps_dir: [ '/web/htdocs', "${root_dir}/comps" ]
mason:
   top_level_extensions: [ '.html', '.mc' ]

Requesting root http://$HOST/, I get following error message: SCRIPT_NAME must not be / at /usr/share/perl5/Plack/Middleware/Lint.pm line 40

My versions installed: Mason 2.21, Poet 0.13 (despite of 0.something major release version, installed from Ubuntu Trusty LTS 14.04 official repo, hence I dare considering it "stable". Current version 0.15 according to CPAN but Changes file didn't expose any apparently imported fixes), Plack 1.003, Apache 2.4.9, Mod_fcgid 2.3.9.

Oh wise, as any promising idea strives mindwards from your meditation so deep, could you please tell me? There is poor information on the net, unless I just searched with bad keywords.
