10 redirects to the same URL ("http://www.example.com/404.html")

[macarthy]

Hi newbie question here,

I using webrat from cucumber in a rails 2.3.4 app (webrat 0.7.1,
cucumber 0.8.5) and I want to use passenger server @ http://client1.local

When I do :

Given I go to the homepage

I get the following :

10 redirects to the same URL ("http://www.example.com/404.html")
(Webrat::InfiniteRedirectError)
./features/step_definitions/web_steps.rb:20:in `/^(?:|I )go to (.+)$/'
features/authentication.feature:8:in `Given I go to the homepage'


My webrat config is as follows

Webrat.configure do |config|
config.application_address = "http://client1.local"
config.mode = :rails
config.open_error_files = false # Set to true if you want error
pages to pop up in the browser
end


Can some tell me where I'm going wrong ? How do I get webrat to use
http://client1.local ? What is the www.example.com string ?

Thanks
Justin
