I have a very strange problem and can't seem to figure it out. I have passenger 2.2.4 and apache 2.2 running a rails application.
It ran fine for weeks when I decided to update Apache. I might also have messed with the users on this machine (OS X 10.5) Now when I start it, Apache starts up fine, loads passenger, and everything looks good. Then, after a while ( and I don't know how long), when I just refresh any page, I get: bignum too big to convert into `long' No entry in either log. Research this a little, I found that a bug in ruby doesn't handle switching users well - a negative UID is read as a big number, which then throws this error. Looking into my user list, I can find only one negative UID - 'unprivileged user'. I might be able to switch this to a different UID, but would that not open a security hole? Also - why is this user even used? Has anybody else seen this before, and how did you fix it? Greatful for any help.
