iCoreTech Research Labs » Install Passenger (mod_rails) in Snow Leopard 64 bit

Description

Update : passenger 2.2.5 release notes states that there are know issues with Snow Leopard, but developers didn’t had chance to test them out yet. I personally found no problems on 2.2.4. To upgrade simply run:

sudo gem install passenger sudo passenger-install-apache2-module

and change apache config according to new version. Follow me on twitter for up to date info.

I’m running on 64 bit kernel, dig older posts if you don’t know how to do that. Remember that not every machine defaults to 64 bit kernel mode.

Anyway, the installation works out as usual and it’s pretty straightforward, version 2.2.4 2.2.5 and using stock Apache which comes with Snow Leopard as default.

Install Xcode from Snow Leopard DVD, and it would be also wise to upgrade rubygems before doing this ...
