FreeBSD

[Andrew Moschou]

Hello,

I seem to have Passenger almost ready on a FreeBSD site. I have:

$ passenger-config validate-install

What would you like to validate?

Use <space> to select.

If the menu doesn't display correctly, press '!'

 ‣ ⬢  Passenger itself

   ⬡  Apache

-------------------------------------------------------------------------

 * Checking whether this Passenger install is in PATH... ✓

 * Checking whether there are no other Passenger installations... ✓

Everything looks good. :-)

I would like to have it running standalone. When I do passenger start, I get:

$ passenger start

The same happens whether I install from tarball or from RubyGem. I don't mind compiling, but I don't know how to go about doing this and how to use the newly created binaries.

It seems odd that by following the docs, I can't get past "passenger start". Is it worth putting an issue on Github?

Thanks,

Andrew

According to the error message there's something wrong with the temp folder you appear to be using: "parent directory is world writable, FileUtils#remove_entry_secure does not work"

It looks like you've customized it to /home/temp but not with the correct access rights?

Thanks for that clue. In my environment, I'm unable to do anything about /home/tmp, but I set $TMPDIR to something else.
