What effort? It's 4 lines of typing to get Passenger installed: gem install passenger passenger-install-apache2-module (copy the suggested lines and paste into...) mate /etc/apache2/httpd.conf sudo apachectl restart Download the Passenger Preferences Pane ( http://github.com/alloy/passengerpane/downloads) to be able to set up new sites easily using a GUI. Much easier than setting up Mongrel as a daemon to serve multiple sites in the background. How do you set up Mongrel that's easier (from scratch) than the above? I'm assuming you're not just working on a single Rails site and just do "rails s" or "script/server" when you need it up (I have locally running websites available all the time).
