Installing passenger in production environment

I have managed to install ruby 1.9.2 with rvm and rails,, but am having some trouble getting passenger installed. I have the source files in my /opt directory. When I run sudo ./passenger-install-nginx-module in the passenger bin directory I get this error: /usr/bin/env: ruby: No such file or directory

rvm info:

Ruby Path "/home/me/.rvm/rubies/ruby-1.9.2-p180/bin/ruby"

if ever you find yourself wondering why your vagrant box has suddenly stopped loading your website, and you have the passenger gem installed, there's a big possibility that it has automatically upgraded the gem and needs you to make a few changes to the apache module for it. This is just one issue I have come across.

So in light of sharing the knowledge just open the following file for editing on the command using your preferred editor if you're running apache.

/etc/apache2/conf.d/passenger

and replace the three lines with the following:

. LoadModule passenger_module /var/lib/gems/1.9.1/gems/passenger-4.0.10/buildout/apache2/mod_passenger.so PassengerRoot /var/lib/gems/1.9.1/gems/passenger-4.0.10 PassengerDefaultRuby /usr/bin/ruby1.9.1

we're basically replacing the version number the module should use.

Use rvmsudo instead of sudo to run the passenger install command. Also, you may need to specify the full path to that command. On my server it's something like this:

rvmsudo /usr/local/rvm/gems/ruby-1.9.2-p290/gems/passenger-3.0.11/bin/passenger-install-apache2-module

You should be able to generate an RVM wrapper script (shell script to select RVM ruby):

rvm wrapper default_192

...and then set PassengerRuby in your Passenger config (tell Passenger which ruby to use):

PassengerRuby /home/your_user/.rvm/bin/default_192
