Rails 500 Error: application.css isn't precompiled
I've got Rails running on Passenger with Apache on an Ubuntu linux box (ve) Server from Mediatemple. My app is giving me a 500 error (a Rails error, not an Apache error) when I try to load any page: http://www.mvngmtns.com
I saw an article about changing this line in config/environments/production.rb:
config.assets.compile = true
But this didn't solve my problem. Can anyone help?
My development.log:
Started GET "/" for 72.225.170.239 at 2012-06-29 15:28:43 -0700

As requested, ran
rake assets:precompile --trace RAILS_ENV=production
touch /tmp/restart.txt
but still the same error. Here's what the trace said:
newguy@mvngmtns:/var/www/movingmountains$ rake assets:precompile --trace RAILS_ENV=production
** Invoke assets:precompile (first_time)
** Execute assets:precompile

I still have the same "500 - We're sorry, but something went wrong" in the browser, and cache: [GET /] miss in the apache log file.
Answer
After setting
config.assets.compile = true
you should also run:
rake assets:precompile --trace RAILS_ENV=production
