If the Rails App will be in a sub uri (http://domain.com/railsapp) the ‘RailsBaseURI /railsapp’ can be put in the /home/username/public_html/.htaccess

Hello All,
This turned out to be a great post, thanks! But I did hae some problems, namely passenger wouldn’t compile with my cpanel. I followed the directions here and it worked great! Enjoy…

I do this again and this is installed as apache module.I installed this just for one user, one domain, http://www.taksiko.com
But, if I go to some different user, for example http://www.cweb.rs I will get error “Ruby on Rails application could not be started”. But when I go to http://www.taksiko.com, I get 403 Forbiden page. Of course, directory is readable (755).

Where is the problem?

running `passenger start` is trying to run passenger in standalone mode which requires nginx. You need to install it as an apache module. They have very good docs on setting that up, check them out at http://www.modrails.com/documentation/Users%20guide%20Apache.html

I want to use Passenger with Apache, and I installed all from your article, but app don’t work. After that, I tried to start app from app dir with command “passenger start” and this starts to install nginx and this fucked my server

Maybe related to this? http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=986408 I’m not sure, my article was using it with Apache, not nginx.
