I am trying to add passenger_root and passenger_ruby to my nginx.conf file, but when i try and restart NGINX I get the message:
Starting nginx: nginx: [alert] Unable to start the Phusion Passenger watchdog
because its executable (/usr/lib/phusion-passenger/agents/PassengerWatchdog) does not
exist. This probably means that your Phusion Passenger installation is broken or
incomplete, or that your 'passenger_root' directive is set to the wrong value. Please
reinstall Phusion Passenger or fix your 'passenger_root' directive, whichever is
applicable. (-1: Unknown error)
nginx.
In my nginx.conf file:
http {
passenger_root /home/deploy/.rvm/gems/ruby-2.0.0-p247/gems/passenger-4.0.14;
passenger_ruby /home/deploy/.rvm/wrappers/ruby-2.0.0-p247/ruby;
Those are both valid paths
I looked at this post: nginx-not-acknowledging-passenger-root-option and tried to run
apt-get remove nginx
but it tells me nginx is not installed. I am using RVM + Passenger + Nginx
I installed passenger by running gem install passenger. Nginx was previously installed, and I just tried modifying the path to the new version of passenger in the nginx.conf file. Do I need to do something additional to make the two work together?
If I try to run sudo passenger-install-nginx-module
I get the message:
Nginx with Passenger support was successfully installed.
Please edit your Nginx configuration file (probably /opt/nginx/conf/nginx.conf),
and set the passenger_root and passenger_ruby configuration options in the
'http' block, like this:
http {
...
passenger_root /var/lib/gems/1.9.1/gems/passenger-3.0.19;
passenger_ruby /usr/bin/ruby1.9.1;
...
}
That is the old ruby path... if i run rvm info, i get the proper ruby2.0 paths
passenger_root
directives in your configuration.sudo
tryrvmsudo
instead - but if you skip then the installer should tell you what to do anyway.
