I was suffering the same thing so:
I did this:
first in httpd.conf file, after:
LoadModule passenger_module /opt/ruby-enterprise/lib/ruby/gems/
1.8/gems/passenger-2.1.2/ext/apache2/mod_passenger.so
PassengerRoot /opt/ruby-enterprise/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/
passenger-2.1.2
PassengerRuby /opt/ruby-enterprise/bin/ruby
RailsSpawnMethod conservative #This I wrote it, just because the
user guide says that is necesary to do it, when works well in mongrel
not in Passenger.
Next inside apache2/conf/extra/httpd_vhosts.conf
<VirtualHost *:80>
ServerName www.sitename.com.mx #Domain name to
public
DocumentRoot "/usr/local/apache2/htdocs/sitename/public" #the
place where where app is in filesystem --erase this comment because
apache give an error.
RailsEnv development #Say to
pasenger that our app is in development.
</VirtualHost>
It could be necesary check the path to ruby binary files ...
I hope this help.
