What is the recommended approach to host rails on windows using Apache?

I googled a lot but most links recommend mod_rails for integrating Apache with Rails. However the links are for Linux and not windows

For a stable deployment on Windows, your best bet would be JRuby and a J2EE container such as tomcat. Apache Http server can proxy to tomcat and several other j2ee containers

There are some newer options such as TorqueBox. This guide may help

Is this for local development or for actually running a public accessible server?

Look at XAMPP.

Once you have that running, follow Eternal-Learner's answer. I originally suggested Mongrel but that seems to have been replaced by Thin.

It is a publicly accessible server and I already have Apache installed on it hosting PHP applications
@Eternal-Learner Thanks, I have updated my answer to maintain original apache context but point to yours for server details.
