nginx+ruby passenger starting but not working (+)

[AnLeAl AnLeAl]

Hi.

Please point me to right direction.

We have install debian 7 and follow this instruction:

https://www.phusionpassenger.com/library/install/nginx/install/oss/wheezy/

Everything goes fine.

Main config have:

nginx.conf:

passenger_root /usr/lib/ruby/vendor_ruby/phusion_passenger/locations.ini;

passenger_ruby /usr/bin/passenger_free_ruby;

Config of our app:

kb.conf:

server {

        listen 192.168.8.31:8080;

        server_name wiki;

root /var/www/railsapps/knowledge_base/public;

passenger_enabled on;

passenger_app_env development;

autoindex on;

}

After nginx stating we have in logs:

2016/04/21 14:26:26 [info] 2916#0: Using 32768KiB of shared memory for push module in /etc/nginx/nginx.conf:72

Looks like it starts.

Now we take folder structure of application knowledge_base from old server and copy to this new server setup.

After open 192.168.8.31:8080 we are only see directory structure, and if i click on any rb file it just downloads to me locally.

What am i doing wrong?

It looks like passenger not seeing that there was ruby app.

Don't do this. With this option you are telling Nginx "don't use Passenger, show me a directory listing instead". The server is doing exactly what you told it to do.

Removing this cause such logs:

2016/04/20 20:17:25 [error] 6271#0: *1 directory index of "/var/www/railsapps/knowledge_base/public/" is forbidden, client: 192.168.8.181, server: , request: "GET / HTTP/1.1", host: "192.168.8.31:8080"

And 403 error for me.

That is another error that also needs to be solved.

Nginx does not have permissions to access /var/www/railsapps/knowledge_base/public. You need to fix your filesystem permissions to allow Nginx to access /var/www/railsapps/knowledge_base/public, as well as all parent directories:

/var/www/railsapps/knowledge_base

/var/www/railsapps

/var/www

/var

I don't think so, while autoindex was on , i was able to see content of public folder of the ruby app with rb file.

Also all was chowned by www-data:www-data.

Then maybe Passenger failed to autodetect your app? Does the file /var/www/railsapps/knowledge_base/config.ru exist?

[AnLeAl AnLeAl]

No, looks like i miss this:

https://www.phusionpassenger.com/library/install/nginx/migrating/migrating_from_p4_to_p5.html

In release notes. 

We have no such files on old server.

Looks like config.ru was the key. We are now have much more intresting logs.
