[solved] Redmine 2.4.5 - Ubuntu 12.04 - apache 2.2: Phusion passenger: no such file to load -- dispatcher

Added by Miquel Coll almost 10 years ago

I've migrated from redmine 1.3.4 to 2.4.5.

If I test redmine with webrick all goes fine:

ruby script/rails server webrick -e production

But If I start it with apache I get this error:

This is the full text of the error:

My production log is this:

And my environment:

I checked several similar posts with no luck, specially this one:

[[http://www.redmine.org/boards/2/topics/40864]]

But I checked my Gemfile and it's identical as [[http://www.redmine.org/projects/redmine/repository/entry/tags/2.4.5/Gemfile]]

Any suggestions?

Kind regards

This is my Apache error log, saying the LoadError is in PhusionPassenger::Railz::ApplicationSpawner:

I answer my own question :-)

After further investigation I found a similar problem here

http://makandracards.com/makandra/815-fix-loaderror-with-rails-3-applications-on-passenger

Although it's for Rails 3 and I'm using Rails 2.3.14, I decided to try it:

sudo gem install passenger
sudo passenger-install-apache2-module

Once installed, I've to change the passenger.load and passenger.conf files in /etc/apache2/mods-available in order to use the new passenger version:

passenger.load

LoadModule passenger_module /var/lib/gems/1.8/gems/passenger-4.0.45/buildout/apache2/mod_passenger.so

passenger.conf

<IfModule mod_passenger.c>
     PassengerDefaultUser www-data
     PassengerRoot /var/lib/gems/1.8/gems/passenger-4.0.45
     PassengerDefaultRuby /usr/bin/ruby1.8
</IfModule>

Ensure you have mod_passenger enabled (a2enmod passenger) and restart apache to get it work!
