I have installed passenger on my Ubuntu 10.x server and I am running Apache2. I have followed the instruction "I think" pretty well. After setting up my virtual host and trying to restart I am getting a failed to start apache error because Documentroot takes one argument. I have the document root set is the thing so I am wondering if you guys could offer some suggestions as to what I may be doing wrong.
I have all my virtual hosts in separate files by domain name, so the directory structure on the server is something like this
/etc/apache2/sites-available/dev.mydomain.com
/etc/apache2/sites-enabled/dev.mydomain.com
both files have the following in them but restarting apache only fails when I put the vhost info in the enabled file.
<VirtualHost *:80>
ServerName dev.mydomain.com
DocumentRoot /home/myfolder/dev/vb/public # <-- be sure to point to 'public'!
<Directory /home/myfolder/dev/vb/public>
AllowOverride all # <-- relax Apache security settings
Options -MultiViews # <-- MultiViews must be turned off
</Directory>
</VirtualHost>
Thanks for any help you can offer.
Comments in httpd.conf must go on their own line.
have you given before defining VirtualHost
NameVirtualHost *:80
if this given remove those commented line after document root and try

I have installed the Skeleton Application manually. My application is kept in "D:\xampp\htdocs\zf2". I've created a virtual host in the following way, in httpd-vhosts.conf
NameVirtualHost *:80
<VirtualHost *:80>
DocumentRoot "D:\xampp\htdocs"
ServerName localhost
</VirtualHost>
<VirtualHost *:80>
ServerName zf2
DocumentRoot "D:/xampp/htdocs/zf2/public/index.php"
<Directory "D:/xampp/htdocs/zf2/public/index.php">
#DirectoryIndex index.php
AllowOverride All
Order allow,deny
Allow from all
</Directory>
</VirtualHost>
but it does not shown properly and it gives the output
and the remain ing application with module and database shows also not shows in the proper way
but if i slightly modify in virtual host settings of
DocumentRoot "D:/xampp/htdocs/zf2/public/index.php"
to
DocumentRoot "D:/xampp/htdocs/zf2/public"
then, skeleton application shows fine but when i configure module and database it gives error "The server encountered an internal error and was unable to complete your request. Either the server is overloaded or there was an error in a CGI script. zend sleleton application error"
can any one help me i have waste lot of time to set it but didn't.
You need to set document root to the folder not a file. The page looks messed up when pointing to index.php as documentroot because it cannot find the stylesheets.
The issue with configuring the module/database is probably a different issue, and you would have to post your module/database configuration to get help there.
I have been trying to install a rails app on a box that originally was used for multiple php applications. I installed passenger and created a conf file but I am confused about how it all works together.
What should my ServerName be if i want to access a Rails app? The box is a debian squeeze running apache2 with passenger module installed. Below is my conf file. I currently have to go to xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx/leoadmin/public to get the application to run properly. I have the following htaccess in the public directory. Which I think is unnecessary if my conf file is configured correctly.
I think my main issue is the misconfiguration of the conf file. I believe the conf file is being loaded but i don't understand why i still need the htaccess for me to see any action.
.htaccess
#PassengerEnabled On
PassengerAppRoot /var/www/leoadmin/
#Options -MultiViews
#PassengerResolveSymlinksInDocumentRoot on
#Set this to whatever environment you'll be running in
RailsEnv production
#RackBaseURI /var/www/leoadmin
vhost config
<VirtualHost *>
ServerName leoadmin
DocumentRoot /var/www/leoadmin/public
<Directory /var/www/leoadmin/public>
Allow from all
</Directory>
Alias /leoadmin /var/www/leoadmin/public
<Location /leoadmin>
SetEnv RAILS_RELATIVE_URL_ROOT "/leoadmin"
PassengerAppRoot /var/www/leoadmin
</Location>
ErrorLog /var/log/apache2/leoadmin-error.log
# Possible values include: debug, info, notice, warn, error, crit,
# alert, emerg.
LogLevel warn
CustomLog /var/log/apache2/leoadmin-access.log combined
</VirtualHost>
I had nothing but pain and more pain trying to get this sorted a few months back, my configuration allows me to do sub URIs, so I'm not sure if that's what you want, but it'll be along these lines. I've never needed a .htaccess file for this setup:
NameVirtualHost *:80 <VirtualHost *:80>
ServerName www.test.co.uk
DocumentRoot /web/rails
<Directory /web/rails>
Allow from all
</Directory>
RailsBaseURI /test
RailsEnv development
<Directory /web/rails_projects/test/>
Options -MultiViews
</Directory>
For me /web/rails is a root directory, from there I have a number of symlinks to my /home/ directory where I store my projects. ServerName is whatever qualified name you're using for the machine that's going to be recognised.
(just in case, I'm running Passenger 3.0.9, and Rails 3.2.11)
So I configured a VirtualHost in the httpd-vhosts.conf directory, but whenever I navigate to the servername, it seems to always give me the page listed in httpd.conf.
I am new to apache web server and am not sure what else I need to do.
In my httpd-vhosts.conf I have
NameVirtualHost *:80
#
# VirtualHost example:
# Almost any Apache directive may go into a VirtualHost container.
# The first VirtualHost section is used for all requests that do not
# match a ServerName or ServerAlias in any <VirtualHost> block.
#
<VirtualHost *:80>
ServerName helloworld.com
DocumentRoot /Users/username/Desktop/RailsDemo/depot/public/
<Directory /Users/username/Desktop/RailsDemo/depot/public/>
AllowOverride all
Options -MultiViews
Order allow,deny
Allow from all
</Directory>
</VirtualHost>
In my httpd.conf, I have default settings, so I didn't change anything since install.
Also, I have matched helloworld.com to the correct ip address. Typing helloworld.com into the browser produces the wrong view...it produces the view indicated in httpd.conf.
If this helps, I am trying to do p. 238 of Pragmatic Agile Web Development with Ruby on Rails (4th Edition) -- Iteration K1: Deploying with Phusion Passenger and MySQL
Any help would be appreciated, thanks!
You seem to be running Mac OS X. In your httpd.conf, you will have the lines;
# Virtual hosts
#Include /private/etc/apache2/extra/httpd-vhosts.conf
Remove the comment, making it
# Virtual hosts
Include /private/etc/apache2/extra/httpd-vhosts.conf
Restart apache, and that should activate your named vhost.
Trying to get my server to serve my rails apps.
I have a test app installed, apache2 and passenger have been installed have I have added the following to the apache2.conf
# Include the virtual host configurations:
Include sites-enabled/
NameVirtualHost localhost:80
<VirtualHost localhost:80>
ServerName 192.168.1.67
DocumentRoot /home/john/Public/test-app
</VirtualHost>
Clearly, I am misunstanding something, because I think that should redirect calls to my local IP to my rails app. It is not. It is going to the default apache index.html.
What am I doing wrong?
UPDATED answer:
I think you are missing the "Directory" node. try using this config code:
(assuming your project path is: /home/john/Public/test-app)
<VirtualHost *:80>
DocumentRoot /home/john/Public/test-app/public
RailsEnv development
<Directory /home/john/Public/test-app/public>
AllowOverride all
Options -MultiViews
</Directory>
</VirtualHost>
This is how I usually do it:
<VirtualHost *:80>
ServerName mysubdomain.betamaster.us
DocumentRoot /var/www_home/mysubdomain/
</VirtualHost>
After applying these changes make sure to execute
/etc/init.d/apache2 reload
in order to reload the server configuration.
I had the same symptoms in this question but it was a different problem. My apache install already had a Virtual host enabled, so I had to disable it and enable my own with the commands
sudo a2dissite default
sudo a2ensite myapp
where default was the name of the Virtual Host file included by default in sites-avaliable/ and myapp is the file i added.
Hopefully this helps someone.
I am trying to deploy Redmine on my web server.
I have chose to use passenger to deploy the ruby app.
I have tested with the rake's demo app, but when I pointed my VitualHost to the red mine public folder I got this error:
Directory index forbidden by Options directive: /var/www/redmine/public/
Can anyone help?
Virtual host:
<VirtualHost *:80>
ServerName redmine.myserver.com
DocumentRoot /var/www/redmine/public
ErrorLog /var/www/redmine/redmine-error-log
<Directory var/www/redmine/public>
AllowOverride all
Options -MultiViews
</Directory>
</VirtualHost>
IMHO Passenger is missing some configuration in your example. Here is what I've in production :
<Directory /var/www/redmine>
RailsBaseURI /redmine
PassengerResolveSymlinksInDocumentRoot on
</Directory>
Where /var/www/redmine was created as a symbolic link :
sudo ln -s /usr/share/redmine/public /var/www/redmine
You might also ensure that the rights are properly set on your redmine folder (the root one).
I have solved this issue.
The problem was caused by SElinux.
I had to enable the permissive mode.
setenforce 0
Then I have configured the Redmine app and set the correct permissions to the folders again.
In the end I have disabled the permissive mode:
setenforce 1
