I'm in the process of setting up a Debian and nginx VPS at the moment intended solely for Ruby on Rails applications. I've done a few steps, but now have a query as I'm very new to the Ruby/RoR ecosystem. I'm also no expert at system administration.
So far I have:
Put dotdeb in my sources.list and installed nginx-extras which includes Passenger. nginx is 1.0.6 and Passenger is 3.0.8.
Installed RVM as root, and set Ruby 1.9.2 to be the default.
In most/all tutorials I've found, one is instructed to install Passenger via the Gem. Is there any advantage to having Passenger installed via dotdeb's package, or should I be installing Passenger via a Gem as I have Ruby installed via RVM?
If I stick to the dotdeb package version of Passenger, I think I need to read up on configuring it next... any pointers on that appreciated.
