I tried to deploy my Pylons app using the instructions found here. This simply loads the default Pylons page when I visit the root of my domain. When I try to enter in any path, I receive the message
Unhandled Exception
An unhandled exception was thrown by the application.
When I view the error log for my application and the Apache error log, it seems Pylons always tries to route things to the error controller. However, note that the above message is not what my error controller should be outputting.
Any suggestions on what to check? I love developing with Pylons, but this is my first attempt at deployment. I've tried multiple configurations on multiple different web servers and I haven't had any luck.
UPDATE: Below is the config for my Pylons app (comments stripped to make it a bit shorter)
