I want to set my own sever to run my ruby on rails project(with passenger plugin). I use Apache2 on Ubuntu11.04(sever version).
It's my first time to use Apache and I have read some documents.
All the docs ask me to set SeverName,such as Apache doc and ubuntu docs.
Unfortunately, I don't have a domain name, can I just set IP address and use IP address to access this sever?
If it's ok, how should I do?
It's the config sample given by passenger:
<VirtualHost *:80>
ServerName www.yourhost.com
DocumentRoot /somewhere/public
<Directory /somewhere/public>
AllowOverride all
Options -MultiViews
</Directory>
</VirtualHost>
Thanks!
Comment out the line:
# NameVirtualHost *:80
Comment out any <VirtualHost> blocks.
Find the line:
DocumentRoot "/var/www/html" # or whatever your config uses for the overall apache document root.
Change it to your rails application's root.
DocumentRoot "/somewhere/public"
Then add your other config settings to a <Directory> block.
<Directory /somewhere/public>
AllowOverride all
Options -MultiViews
</Directory>
I haven't tested this for sure, but you should be able to get to it by only visiting the IP address. Make sure you have Passenger installed, have run passenger-install-apache2-module, and have added the appropriate module loading lines to your apache config.
/etc/apache2/httpd.conf
<VirtualHost *:80>
ServerName example.com
DocumentRoot /home/urpc-name/RailsApps/anything/public
<Directory /home/webonise/RailsApps/anything/public>
RailsEnv development
AllowOverride all
Options -MultiViews
</Directory>
</VirtualHost>
In server name:select ur virtual name...u can choose anything
In document root and directory,give your rails project path
Select rails environment in RailsEnv
/etc/hosts
127.0.0.1 example.com
Put server name in virtual host-127.0.0.1 is the localhost
Then just go to your browser and type example.com
Hope this helps

but dhs(e.g: dhs/) opening the deforay host , am using in zend framework 2, the "deforay" host is working good but not dhs... i also added dhs in hosts's file
your config seems valid, the only way that may could be wrong is that you don't activated named based virtual hosts.
to get that work insert into your vhost config file NameVirtualHost *:80 (edit the port if you use a different one)
make sure your host file includes
127.0.0.1 dhs
127.0.0.1 deforay
and access your webpage in your browser with
http://dhs
http://deforay
I have working Rails app on sub-uri redmine.example.org/redmine and I want it on redmine.example.org
/var/www/work/redmine.src is approot
/var/www/work/redmine is symlink to /var/www/work/redmine.src/public
<VirtualHost *:80>
DocumentRoot /var/www/work
ServerName redmine.example.org
ErrorLog /var/log/apache2/redmine-error_log
CustomLog /var/log/apache2/redmine-access_log combined
<Directory /var/www/work/redmine>
AllowOverride all
Options -MultiViews
Order allow,deny
allow from all
</Directory>
RackBaseURI /redmine
<Directory /var/www/work/redmine.src>
Options -MultiViews
Order allow,deny
allow from all
</Directory>
</VirtualHost>
I tried many combination and googled hours, but nothing works.
How should I change this config to deploy redmine on subdomain root?
Thanks in advance.
Well, it was easier, than I supposed.
When I read the manual again and again I found solution:
link to manual
Now my config file looks like this:
<VirtualHost *:80>
DocumentRoot /var/www/work/redmine.src/public
ServerName redmine.example.org
<Directory /var/www/work/redmine.src/public>
AllowOverride all
Options -MultiViews
Order allow,deny
allow from all
</Directory>
</VirtualHost>
Another way to deploy sub-uri app, might work for you too:
<VirtualHost *:80>
ProxyPass /sub_uri/ http://localhost:8000/sub_uri/
DocumentRoot /main_app/public
<Directory /main_app/public>
...
</Directory>
</VirtualHost>
<VirtualHost *:8000>
DocumentRoot /sub_uri/public
<Directory /sub_uri/public>
...
SetEnv RAILS_RELATIVE_URL_ROOT /sub_uri
</Directory>
</VirtualHost>
I installed Redmine 3.3.1 on a Debian 9.0 Stretch server using the packages provided by the distribution itself (Apache + Redmine + Ruby + Rails + Passenger + MariaDB) more or less following those guides:
http://www.redmine.org/projects/redmine/wiki/RedmineInstall
http://www.redmine.org/projects/redmine/wiki/InstallRedmineOnDebianStableApacheMysqlPassenger
I would like to leave www.example.org "for Apache" and redmine.example.org "for Redmine", so I ended up with the following setup.
I left /etc/apache2/sites-available/000-default.conf untouched and created a file named redmine.conf inside that same folder:
<VirtualHost *:80>
ServerName redmine.example.org
DocumentRoot /usr/share/redmine/public
PassengerRuby /usr/bin/ruby
<Directory /usr/share/redmine/public>
Allow from all
Options -MultiViews
Require all granted
</Directory>
</VirtualHost>
Then, I've linked it to the sites-enabled folder and restarted Apache:
# ln -s /etc/apache2/sites-available/redmine.conf /etc/apache2/sites-enabled/redmine.conf
# systemctl restart apache2
To set up that virtual host, I followed the directions here:
Deploying a Ruby application on Passenger + Apache
Deploying an app to a virtual host's root
https://www.phusionpassenger.com/library/deploy/apache/deploy/ruby/#deploying-an-app-to-a-virtual-host-s-root
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.
Used railsready, then passenger w/ apache2, finally copied my app to /home/myapp.
Inserted the passenger config lines into /etc/apache2/apache.conf at the bottom along with my virtual host settings:
The servers name is rails.
LoadModule passenger_module /home/myapp/.rvm/gems/ruby-1.9.2-p180/gems/passenger-3.0.7/ext/apache2/mod_passenger.so
PassengerRoot /home/myapp/.rvm/gems/ruby-1.9.2-p180/gems/passenger-3.0.7
PassengerRuby /home/myapp/.rvm/wrappers/ruby-1.9.2-p180/ruby
<VirtualHost *:80>
ServerName rails
DocumentRoot /home/myapp/public
</VirtualHost>
All I get is the apache "It Works" page when I open the IP address. Am I doing something wrong?
You declared a ServerName so you must use it to access this VirtualHost (and not the IP address as you mentioned). Connect to http://rails/
For this to work, the hostname rails must resolv to your server's IP. You can add it to you hosts file or use a real domain name configured to resolve to this IP.
Or you can change the DocumentRoot of the default VirtualHost of Apache, and then it will always respond with the Rails app.
Try:
<VirtualHost *:80>
ServerName rails
DocumentRoot /home/myapp/public
<Directory /var/www/robox/public>
AllowOverride all
Options -MultiViews
</Directory>
</VirtualHost>
Also, you might need to disable the default site. In Ubuntu you can do this with:
[sudo] a2dissite default
[sudo] service apache2 restart
I have installed symfony sandbox 1.2 and created a virtual host by modifying apache config like this (following this tut http://www.symfony-project.org/askeet/1_0/en/1 but I adapted as sandbox dirs are different from their tuts):
NameVirtualHost 127.0.0.1:80
<VirtualHost 127.0.0.1:80>
ServerName askeet
DocumentRoot "c:/webserver/www/sf_sandbox/web"
DirectoryIndex index.php
Alias /sf "c:/webserver/www/sf_sandbox/web/images/sf"
<Directory "c:/webserver/www/sf_sandbox/web">
AllowOverride All
Allow from All
</Directory>
<Directory "c:/webserver/www/sf_sandbox/web/images/sf">
AllowOverride All
Allow from All
</Directory>
</VirtualHost>
And modified my hosts file to map askeet to 127.0.0.1
It works fine except symfony tells me:
If you see no image in this page, you
may need to configure your web server
so that it gains access to the
symfony_data/web/sf/ directory.
Indeed I can't see any images which are stored in c:/webserver/sf_sandbox/web/images/sf as for my symfony sandbox, why ?
Your hosts file should be
<VirtualHost 127.0.0.1:80>
ServerName askeet
DocumentRoot "c:/webserver/www/sf_sandbox/web"
DirectoryIndex index.php
Alias /sf "c:/webserver/www/sf_sandbox/web/sf"
<Directory "c:/webserver/www/sf_sandbox/web">
AllowOverride All
Allow from All
</Directory>
<Directory "c:/webserver/www/sf_sandbox/web/sf">
AllowOverride All
Allow from All
</Directory>
</VirtualHost>
because the sf directory is in web/ directory and not in web/images directory?
