Passenger Apache Install

#Passenger Apache Install

First, install passenger. This will help with the rest of the install.

sudo gem install passenger

sudo passenger-install-apache2-module

sudo apt-get install libcurl4-openssl-dev
sudo apt-get install apache2-mpm-prefork
sudo apt-get install apache2-prefork-dev
sudo apt-get install libapr1-dev
sudo apt-get install libaprutil1-dev

After it compiles you need to setup the Apache Config file (httpd.conf)

LoadModule passenger_module /home/leo/.rvm/gems/ruby-1.9.3-p125/gems/passengehttps://gist.github.com/miner-3.0.11/ext/apache2/mod_passenger.so
PassengerRoot /home/leo/.rvm/gems/ruby-1.9.3-p125/gems/passenger-3.0.11
PassengerRuby /home/leo/.rvm/wrappers/ruby-1.9.3-p125/ruby

##Apache Configuration File

sudo gedit /etc/apache2/httpd.conf

<VirtualHost *:80>
  ServerName www.blog.com
  DocumentRoot /somewhere/public    # <-- Rails public folder
  <Directory /somewhere/public>
     AllowOverride all              # <-- relax Apache security settings
     Options -MultiViews            # <-- MultiViews must be turned off
  </Directory>

Server name can be mysite.com. You should point the Document root at the rails public folder.
