Finally: Passenger/mod_rails for Nginx!

I was really glad to finally read the news that Passenger 2.2.0 now supports my favorite webserver nginx too.

I always wanted to get rid of the somehow apache monster, which is an overkill in some scenarios (imho).

Nginx has a very easy configuration and everything I need.

If you want to test passenger with nginx it’s as simple as:

              
              sudo gem install passenger
              sudo passenger-install-nginx-module
              
              # edit the default config:
              sudo vi /opt/nginx/conf/nginx.conf
              
              # start nginx
              sudo /opt/nginx/sbin/nginx
              
              

There is also a Peepcode Screencast explaining the steps.

I’m happy :)
