Installation
Step 1: install gem
Install the Passenger gem with:
$ gem install passenger --no-rdoc --no-ri
The --no-rdoc --no-ri
argument isn't really necessary, but it makes installation faster by skipping generation of API documentation.
gem install
abort with a "permission denied" error? Then re-run it with
sudo
.
Step 2: validate installation
After installation, please validate the install by running sudo passenger-config validate-install
. For example:
$ sudo passenger-config validate-install * Checking whether this Phusion Passenger install is in PATH... ✓ * Checking whether there are no other Phusion Passenger installations... ✓
All checks should pass. If any of the checks do not pass, please follow the suggestions on screen.
