Phusion Passenger 3.2 experimental

I need run 2 versions of ruby with my apache and I can try new passenger experimental. But I don't know how install it, because when I try this:

sudo ./bin/passenger-install-apache2-module

Installations is ok, but file mod_passenger.so don't exist.

Solution

  • Passenger 3.x supports a single ruby interpreter only.

    5.2. PassengerRuby

    This option allows one to specify the Ruby interpreter to use.

    This option may only occur once, in the global server configuration. The default is ruby.

    Passenger 4.x supports multiple rubies natively: (excert from the docs)

    6.2. PassengerRuby

    This option allows one to specify the Ruby interpreter to use.

    Since version 4.0.0, this option may occur in the following places:

    • In the global server configuration.
    • In a virtual host configuration block.
    • In a or block.
    • In .htaccess, if AllowOverride Options is on.

    If you want to use a different Ruby interpreter for two different applications then you should define different PassengerRuby directives in different virtual host blocks.

    In versions prior to 4.0.0, only a single Ruby version is supported for the entire Apache instance, so PassengerRuby may only occur in the global server configuration.

    The default value is ruby, meaning that the Ruby interpreter will be looked up according to the PATH environment variable.
