I went ahead and installed the nginx module
Mini:~ user$ passenger-install-nginx-module
with unhappy results in red...
It looks like something went wrong
I surmise that the conversion errors are at the root of some issues. particularly worrisome is the fat that some hit files in config directories...
Assuming an uninstall, how can these be installed without conversion errors?
ruby-1.9.3-p547/gems/passenger-4.0.48/
is the environment
Update The errors apparently are only relative to the documentation.
gem install passenger --no-ri --no-rdoc
does install passenger 4.0.48.
nginx however fails to install
It'd better to just update the rdoc gem:
gem install rdoc
The bug comes about due to rdoc trying to read a binary file. This bug was fixed.
