Question

I would like to know if it’s possible to set specific ruby environments to specific sites.

In /etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf

LoadModule passenger_module /home/user/.rvm/gems/ruby-1.8.7-p249/gems/passenger-2.2.15/ext/apache2/mod_passenger.so
PassengerRoot /home/user/.rvm/gems/ruby-1.8.7-p249/gems/passenger-2.2.15
PassengerRuby /home/user/.rvm/rubies/ruby-1.8.7-p249/bin/ruby

But say I want to use a different ruby environment, for a specific site, how would I go about doing this?

I have rvm installed correctly for my user ‘user’ so switching environments and installing other environments is quite painless, but the apache configuration side has me clueless.

Thanks

From the RVM Passenger page:

Q: Can I run multiple projects under
passenger with each project on a
different ruby version?

A: Not at this time. Passenger
currently only supports running it’s
projects under one ruby. You can get
this behavior using a proxy pass.

If you want different ruby environments per project, you’ll need to use mongrel/unicorn/etc.
