I've run into random problems before when trying to get passenger to work. They were dependent on the particular environment I was installing to and generally had to do with the ways I like to customize my ruby/rails environment (so probably not worth me posting). That said, the investment of time is really worth the payoff, in my opinion. Once you have it set up and working, it reduces a lot of the hassle of managing your rails applications, and handles multiple concurrent requests without you having to worry about it.
That said, particularly if you're on a machine with limited resources (like a cheap, small VM) or non-standard ruby/rails installations, there will be up-front costs of time and effort in order to get your installation going.
