500 error with deploying rails application via apache2+passenger
- by user1633983
I finally completed my own app, so the only work left is deploying the app.
I'm using Ubuntu 10.04 and apache2(installed by apt-get), so I'm trying to deploy through passenger.
I installed passenger gem like this:
sudo gem install passenger
rvmsudo passenger-install-apache2-module
and I configured apache settings as what the installation message says.
I added below lines in the middle of /etc/apache2/apache2.conf file.
LoadModule passenger_module /home/admin/.rvm/gems/ruby-1.9.3-p194/gems/passenger-3.0.17/ext/apache2/mod_passenger.so
PassengerRoot /home/admin/.rvm/gems/ruby-1.9.3-p194/gems/passenger-3.0.17
PassengerRuby /home/admin/.rvm/wrappers/ruby-1.9.3-p194/ruby
and, I appended below lines in /etc/apache2/sites-available/default file.
<VirtualHost *:80>
ServerName localhost
# !!! Be sure to point DocumentRoot to 'public'!
DocumentRoot /home/admin/homepage/public
<Directory /home/admin/homepage/public>
# This relaxes Apache security settings.
AllowOverride all
# MultiViews must be turned off.
Options -MultiViews
</Directory>
But when I restart the apache service and hit the address, 500 error occurs.
At first, it was same 500 error but the 500 error page is from apache's, but when I reinstalled the libapache2-module-passenger, the 500 error page is changed to that from rails'.
Because of rails' 500 error page(which is located at public/500.html), I think passenger module is properly connected with apache.
What should I do to fix this problem?
Do I need to configure something inside my app before deployment?
