I want to move from running puppet under it's own web brick server, to using passenger.
I'd like to get an idea of how folk are running passenger? Ideally I'd like to keep everything rpm based, so would need ruby enterprise rpms, and then the mod_rails / passenger plugin?
How are you folk doing it?
I've seen:
http://download.elff.bravenet.com/5/x86_64/repoview/mod_passenger.html
And I've also seen:
https://packages.endpoint.com/
Which seems to do some enterprise ruby.
What else is out there? I'm more than happy to do it all myself, but if so it ought to be done in the way which best serves the project...
So... what thoughts / recommendations?

I used the guide found here http://reductivelabs.com/trac/puppet/wiki/UsingPassenger on a RHEL 5 server with success. You'll see that most things are installed via yum repositories except for rack and passenger, which are installed as ruby gems. You'll probably find better answers for this type of questions and any issues you might run into during implementation on the puppet users mailing list ( http://groups.google.com/group/puppet-users)

Thanks. I've done this before - I don't actually need help with getting Passenger installed - I could do it any number of ways.
What I am saying is that I would like to manage the whole process using RPMs - I'd rather not have to manage gems as well as RPMs, or have things built from source, or have tarballs to distribute. I've seen or heard of several Ruby EE rpms, and I don't know or trust the provenance of the mod_rails RPM is found via google. I don't know if any of them are recommended.
If anyone on the list has done this already, and a reasonable body of people trust the results, I'm happy to use that. Otherwise I'm happy to do it myself and share the results with the project - all assuming the general consensus is that my intended approach - using RPMs for everything - is wise.
Thanks,
S.
I think you can best help the project and the CentOS community by submitting a working .spec file to rpmforge-suggest mailing list.
Cheers,
