[chef] Re: passenger_apache2 with application_ruby and RVM

[Vladimir Skubriev < >]

I too cannot install rvm with rvm cookbook, or system,

I write my own custom code to install rvm in user code.

See my own rvm recipe )

https://gist.github.com/cvl-skubriev/8974850

Hope this help. This worked in production some months. 

I cannot share all cookbook now.

I hope in future do it, but i need some refactoring )

See joshua timberman cookbook to setup redmine too (google it).

Hi Chefs,

I'm trying to install a custom rails application with chef, using application_ruby cookbook with passenger_apache2 sub-resource and chef-rvm (rvm) cookbook.

I'm using chef-zero (local_mode true) to test it, in order to avoid any chef-solo impact and I'm currently using chef-11.8.2 omnibus installation on CentOS6.5_x64.

By manually applying https://github.com/poise/application_ruby/pull/48

I managed to achieve the whole installation without using rvm, but in this way installation is done by embedded (omnibus) ruby and I would like to avoid it in order to be able to control ruby version my application will run with.

Unfortunately I cannot manage the whole installation working with rvm (even using bleeding edge version from master).

This is my wrapper recipe:
https://gist.github.com/marbe/8973868

These are involved attributes:
https://gist.github.com/marbe/8973899

This is the error running with params-only hash to pass attribute to passenger_apache2:
 * First run still uses embedded ruby:
https://gist.github.com/marbe/8974157

 * Second run (after re-login to set env variable after rvm install) uses rvm:
https://gist.github.com/marbe/8974173

This is the errror with explicit override of root_path (third run on the same VM instance):
override['passenger']['root_path'] = '/usr/local/rvm/gems/ruby-2.1.0'
https://gist.github.com/marbe/8974200

This is the errror with explicit override of root_path (first run on new VM instance):
https://gist.github.com/marbe/8974359
Again second run (after re-login to set env variable after rvm install) uses rvm:
https://gist.github.com/marbe/8974388

I only found this thread googling around:
http://lists.opscode.com/sympa/arc/chef/2013-03/msg00210.html

and would like to know if anyboby else has been able to manage such a scenario.

Any help would be very appreciated :-)

Marco
