Well, the error is titled with "Passanger" so I'd say yes ;)

The error also advises to check the webservers's logfiles. Have you?

If apache logs aren't helpful, there may be something on the puppet side
of things. Rack applications may do some logging of their own.

I've found that ruby applications can be made to be very portable, but
the more so if you do *everything* the intended ruby way. With the
different OS environments, there are lots of half-assed compromises
(e.g. install some software through packages, others through gems etc.)
and the howto's will often reflect the respective author's personal
preference with regards to the respective details. Also, they want to
keep things simple between differen OS releases.

Long story short, I concur that in Debian (Ubuntu propably the same),
getting Passenger via packages is a better choice than gems. I cannot
comment on 3.x vs. 2.x, but I've seen good mileage with the stock Debian
packages for apache/passenger (not tried a 3.x master yet, though).

Sadly that won't match the docs exactly, but I think this should be
painless enough:
- start from scratch
- get the components via apt
- apply the configs from the howto as best you can
- clean up the leftover errors from the discrepancies

HTH,
Felix
