This article may be relevant if you see the following error message from the Talks.cam website:

Application error (Apache)

Change this error message for exceptions thrown outside of an action (like in Dispatcher setups or broken Ruby code) in public/500.html


Please note this error is subtly different from the "Rails application failed to start properly" error - please refer to Error - Rails application failed to start properly for advice on that error.
