ruby 1.8.7 (2012-02-08 MBARI 8/0x6770 on patchlevel 358) [x86_64-linux], MBARI 0x6770, Ruby Enterprise Edition 2012.02

from http://rubyenterpriseedition.googlecode.com/files/ruby-enterprise_1.8.7-2012.02_amd64_debian6.0.deb

root@debian:~# passenger-install-nginx-module

Welcome to the Phusion Passenger Nginx module installer, v3.0.17.

This installer will guide you through the entire installation process. It
shouldn't take more than 5 minutes in total.

Here's what you can expect from the installation process:

 1. This installer will compile and install Nginx with Passenger support.
 2. You'll learn how to configure Passenger in Nginx.
 3. You'll learn how to deploy a Ruby on Rails application.

Don't worry if anything goes wrong. This installer will advise you on how to
solve any problems.


Press Enter to continue, or Ctrl-C to abort.


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

Checking for required software...

 * GNU C++ compiler... found at /usr/bin/g++
 * The 'make' tool... found at /usr/bin/make
 * A download tool like 'wget' or 'curl'... found at /usr/bin/wget
 * Ruby development headers... found
 * OpenSSL support for Ruby... found
 * RubyGems... found
 * Rake... found at /usr/local/bin/rake
 * rack... found
 * Curl development headers with SSL support... not found
 * OpenSSL development headers... not found
 * Zlib development headers... found

Some required software is not installed.
But don't worry, this installer will tell you how to install them.

Press Enter to continue, or Ctrl-C to abort.


Installation instructions for required software

If the aforementioned instructions didn't solve your problem, then please take

    I had the same issue with libcurl4-openssl-dev. Try sudo apt-get install libcurl4-gnutls-dev which should work just fine.

    Give it a try, and if it doesn’t work please let me know and I’ll show you a work around to have libcurl4-openssl-dev installed.
