Vell, with your setup as far as I can see, you can without changing the apache site and localhost files at all.
You can create a symbolic link from your /var/www directory to your Rails directory, something along these lines: $sudo ln -s /home/vmcilwain/www/site/public /var/www/site Now, if you go to http://localhost/site you should get your Rails site up. Of course, it is different if you want to be able to get your site to answer to http://localhost directly. One way I have achieved this is to edit /etc/apache2/sites-available/default (only change is at top, DocumentRoot, and removing the <directory /var/www> section which isn't really necessary): <VirtualHost *:80> ServerAdmin webmaster@localhost DocumentRoot /home/binni/mysite/public <Directory /> Options FollowSymLinks AllowOverride None </Directory> ScriptAlias /cgi-bin/ /usr/lib/cgi-bin/ <Directory "/usr/lib/cgi-bin"> AllowOverride None Options +ExecCGI -MultiViews +SymLinksIfOwnerMatch Order allow,deny Allow from all </Directory> ErrorLog ${APACHE_LOG_DIR}/error.log # Possible values include: debug, info, notice, warn, error, crit, # alert, emerg. LogLevel warn CustomLog ${APACHE_LOG_DIR}/access.log combined Alias /doc/ "/usr/share/doc/" <Directory "/usr/share/doc/"> Options Indexes MultiViews FollowSymLinks AllowOverride None Order deny,allow Deny from all Allow from 127.0.0.0/255.0.0.0 ::1/128 </Directory> </VirtualHost> -----Oprindelig meddelelse----- Fra: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] På vegne af Vell Sendt: 15. december 2011 18:55 Til: Ruby on Rails: Talk Emne: [Rails] Re: How can I get RVM/Passenger/Apache2 to play nicely together Mircea, I tried this installation guide just now and I am still in the same place. Though the instructions are clear, I am still not able to get to my rails application that is located in my home directory. This is on a fresh installed Ubuntu 11.10 system as well. So here is what has been done, based on that guide: RVM Steup sudo aptitude install build-essential git-core curl bash < <(curl -s https://rvm.beginrescueend.com/install/rvm) echo '[[ -s "$HOME/.rvm/scripts/rvm" ]] && source "$HOME/.rvm/scripts/ rvm"' >> ~/.bashrc rvm notes sudo aptitude install build-essential openssl libreadline6 libreadline6-dev zlib1g zlib1g-dev zlib libssl-dev libyaml-dev libsqlite3-0 libsqlite3-dev sqlite3 libxml2- dev libxslt-dev autoconf libc6-dev ncurses-dev automake libtool bison rvm install 1.9.2 rvm use 1.9.2 rvm --default use 1.9.2 RAILS SETUP 1 gem install rails Added the following to my Gemfile gem 'execjs' gem 'therubyracer' bundle install rails s (saw my application locally on port 3000) APACHE2 Setup sudo aptitude install apache2 Passenger Setup gem install passenger passenger-install-apache2-module Added the following to /etc/apache2/apache2.conf LoadModule passenger_module /home/user/.rvm/gems/ruby-1.9.2- p290/gems/ passenger-3.0.11/ext/apache2/mod_passenger.so PassengerRoot /home/user/.rvm/gems/ruby-1.9.2-p290/gems/ passenger-3.0.11 PassengerRuby /home/user/.rvm/wrappers/ruby-1.9.2-p290/ restarted apache2 Creating My Site Created directory www in my home directory rails new site -d mysql Added the following to /etc/apache2/sites-available/site <VirtualHost *:80> ServerName localhost ServerAlias localhost DocumentRoot /home/vmcilwain/www/site/public </VirtualHost> sudo a2ensite site sudo a2enmod rewrite sudo service apache2 reload Attempted to hit the application with the browser (http://localhost) and I get: It Works! (Apache standard page) Attempt to hit the application with the location http://localhost/site and I get: Not Found The requested URL /site was not found on this server According to the guide, I should have seen the welcome aboard page of the site application in my www directory. I can't be this hopeless, what else can I be doing wrong :-/ Any help again is greatly appreciated.
