h3. Check installation
47 45 Stephan Schuberth
48 54 Stephan Schuberth
If this does not work, it is probably because there is no ruby at /usr/bin to be found. 
49 1 Serafim J Fagundes
If it works, skip directly to "Get Gems 1.4.2".
50 55 Stephan Schuberth
<pre>ruby -v</pre>

h3. Fix dependencies with a symlink
53 51 Stephan Schuberth
54 49 Stephan Schuberth
(Only in case _ruby -v_ is *NOT* working)
55 1 Serafim J Fagundes
<pre>which ruby  # TO CHECK WHERE IT SHOULD BE
56 43 Stephan Schuberth
whereis ruby  # TO CHECK WHERE IT IS INSTALLED</pre>
57 49 Stephan Schuberth
_which_ returns like /usr/bin/ along with other directories (where ruby is expected to be), and _whereis_ returns like /usr/local/bin/ruby (thats where ruby actually lies).
58 1 Serafim J Fagundes
59 49 Stephan Schuberth
Create the Link:
60
<pre>ln -s /usr/local/bin/ruby /usr/bin/ruby</pre>
61
Check again if it is working:
62
<pre>ruby -v # NOW IT MUST RETURN RUBY VERSION, ELSE SOMETHING ELSE IS BROKEN
63 41 Stephan Schuberth
cd ..</pre>

h3. In case this does not work...

... the solution is again creating a symlink, analogical like described in the ruby section above.

If the second line does not work, do *whereis passenger* to find out where it is installed.
100 1 Serafim J Fagundes
So you can execute it like */usr/local/bin/passenger-install-apache2-module* ...
101 84 Stephan Schuberth

The install process is interactive and you wil be told what to do. READ!
