Hi I am trying to deploy a rails application on linux. I have configured everything in my app and then I have configured app.conf file in /etc/apache2/sites-available
<VirtualHost *:80>
ServerName xx.xx.xx.xx /ip of my server
ServerAlias xx.xx.xx.xx / ip of my server
ServerAdmin user#localhost
DocumentRoot /myapp/current/public
RailsEnv testing
ErrorLog ${APACHE_LOG_DIR}/error.log
CustomLog ${APACHE_LOG_DIR}/access.log combined
<Directory "/myapp/current/public">
Allow from All
Options -MultiViews
AllowOverride all
Options FollowSymLinks
Require all granted
</Directory>
And my app is running fine when I go to xx.xx.xx.xx , but I change the port 80 to 5000 and go to xx.xx.xx.xx:5000 , app is not running.
Can anyone help me out on this. what I suppose to do ?

First of all, this is for dev purposes only. On my Mac I've got Apache running with Passenger which serve many Rails/Ruby App. An example of an Apach config for Rails would be:
<VirtualHost *:80>
ServerName example.lc
ServerAlias www.example.lc
RailsEnv development
PassengerFriendlyErrorPages on
PassengerRuby /Users/user/.rvm/gems/ruby-2.2.3/wrappers/ruby
DocumentRoot "/path/to/my/app/public"
ErrorLog "/path/to/my/app/log"
CustomLog "/path/to/my/app/log" common
ServerAdmin example#example.com
<Directory "/path/to/my/app/public">
Options Indexes FollowSymLinks
AllowOverride All
Order allow,deny
Allow from all
</Directory>
</VirtualHost>
And on my host file I'd have 192.168.0.1 www.example.lc and that would work fine.
I'd like to do the same for a Node App based off Sails. I've tried the following:
<VirtualHost *:80>
ServerName example.lc
ServerAlias www.example.lc
NODE_ENV development
PassengerFriendlyErrorPages on
PassengerNodejs /usr/bin/node
DocumentRoot "/path/to/my/app/public"
ErrorLog "/path/to/my/app/log"
CustomLog "path/to/my/app/log" common
ServerAdmin me#example.com
<Directory "/path/to/my/app/public">
Options Indexes FollowSymLinks
AllowOverride All
Order allow,deny
Allow from all
</Directory>
</VirtualHost>
But that doesn't work. Nor it shows any error on the log file. Any ideas?
Please note that I've also tried PassengerNodejs /Users/user/.nvm/versions/node/v4.4.7/bin/node which is the path I get when I do which node. That didn't work either.
I have a rails app (www.myapp.com) for which I am using Apache Passenger. The virtual host is configured as follows:
<VirtualHost *:80>
DocumentRoot "/var/www/myapp/current/public"
RailsEnv production
<directory "/var/www/myapp/current/public">
Options FollowSymLinks
AllowOverride None
Order allow,deny
Allow from all
</directory>
RailsBaseURI /
</VirtualHost>
I have a blog which is hosted externally on some other domain, lets say www.myapp-blog.com. I want to 301 redirect any requests to www.myapp.com/blog or www.myapp.com/blog/* to the relevant pages on www.myapp-blog.com. Everything else should flow through my Rails app.
How should I modify the above virtual host configuration to achieve this?
use apache port forwarding technique...
<VirtualHost *:80>
ProxyPreserveHost On
ProxyRequests Off
ServerName www.myapp-blog.com
ServerAlias myapp-blog.com
ProxyPass / http://www.myapp.com/blog/
ProxyPassReverse / http://www.myapp.com/blog
</VirtualHost>
When I run my browser from my rails application on my debian server, the tree of my application appears in the browser.
I install and configure passenger and apache but it does not work.
Why?
Thanks
You most likely have your web server pointed at <some_path>/app instead of <some_path>/app/public.
Example Apache VirtualHost:
<VirtualHost *:443>
ServerName www.app.com
DocumentRoot "/var/app/current/public/"
CustomLog /var/log/apache2/app_log combined
ErrorLog /var/log/apache2/app_log
<Directory /var/app/current/public>
AllowOverride all
Options -MultiViews
</Directory>
SSLEngine on
SSLCertificateFile /etc/ssl/certs/app.crt
SSLCertificateKeyFile /etc/ssl/private/app.key
SSLCertificateChainFile /etc/ssl/certs/bundle.crt
</VirtualHost>
I have a linode server and was running a single website for dev purposes using webrick, now i want to put it into production and use Apache2 which I have installed and is up and running the classic It Work's! page which is expected.
Now I want to run multiple sites on this VPS I am using the current configuration which works fine for striaght HTML but will not run the web apps unless I run them on another port (rails s -p3500 etc) as port 80 is already taken up by Apache.
<VirtualHost *:80>
ServerName datumpoint.bizmodev.com
# ServerAlias *.example.com
DocumentRoot /var/www.bizmodev.com
<Directory "/var/www.bizmodev.com">
Options FollowSymLinks
AllowOverride None
Order allow,deny
Allow from all
</Directory>
</VirtualHost>
<VirtualHost *:80>
ServerName homehounduk.co.uk
ServerAlias *.homehounduk.co.uk
DocumentRoot /var/www.homehounduk.co.uk
<Directory "/var/www.homehounduk.co.uk">
Options FollowSymLinks
AllowOverride None
Order allow,deny
Allow from all
</Directory>
</VirtualHost>
Do i need to use passenger or something else to get this working? i have tried changing the virtual hosts to different ports and stuff but just end up getting a 403.
Any help would be appreciated.
this line:
<VirtualHost *:80>
you are telling to your apache that it will listen to anything on port 80
it you change to something like this:
<VirtualHost www.myawesomeurl.com:80>
in this case you are telling apache that everything that comes as a request from this address (www.myawesomeurl.com) on port 80 will use that options.
I think you want something like this:
# Basically your home, like: www.myhome.com
<VirtualHost *:80>
ServerName datumpoint.bizmodev.com
# ServerAlias *.example.com
DocumentRoot /var/www.bizmodev.com
<Directory "/var/www.bizmodev.com">
Options FollowSymLinks
AllowOverride None
Order allow,deny
Allow from all
</Directory>
</VirtualHost>
# Your custom site
<VirtualHost www.something.com:80>
ServerName homehounduk.co.uk
ServerAlias *.homehounduk.co.uk
DocumentRoot /var/www.homehounduk.co.uk
<Directory "/var/www.homehounduk.co.uk">
Options FollowSymLinks
AllowOverride None
Order allow,deny
Allow from all
</Directory>
</VirtualHost>
and dont forget to point the www.something.com to the same ip as the www.myhome.com
Combine this with passenger and you will have one server running many rails apps and many php instances or html pages or anything you want.
I switched from WEBrick to Phussion Passenger following this guide: http://developer.apple.com/library/mac/#featuredarticles/PhusionRails/index.html.
I used PassengerPane to configure it.
Now I can access my app at myapp.local, instead of localhost:3000
However, I don't know how to access it from the outside. It used to be ip:3000
My vhost.conf file looks like this:
<VirtualHost *:80>
ServerName myapp.local
DocumentRoot "/Users/martin/myapp/public"
RackEnv development
<Directory "/Users/martin/myapp/public">
Order allow,deny
Allow from all
</Directory>
</VirtualHost>
You need to add ServerAlias YOURIP:
<VirtualHost *:80>
ServerName myapp.local
ServerAlias YOURIP
DocumentRoot "/Users/martin/myapp/public"
RackEnv development
<Directory "/Users/martin/myapp/public">
Order allow,deny
Allow from all
</Directory>
</VirtualHost>
You can add as many aliases as you want (with real domain names for example).
