log files are written by rails as the 'user', not by the apache user.
See the directory listing of my 'logs' below.
Apache user is www-user anyway, not root. Root user is only for the
master process.
you should change the ownership back on all files/folders
in /home/justinscheier/www/testapp1
Then, you need to indicate in your apache configuration which RailsEnv
is to be used...
<VirtualHost *:80>
ServerName testapp1.fuse.sonikserver.com
DocumentRoot /home/justinschier/www/testapp1/public
## note the following line ##
RailsEnv production # or development if that's what you are running
##
<Directory /home/justinschier/www/testapp1/public>
Allow from all
Options -MultiViews
</Directory>
</VirtualHost>
Passenger is very clever and can be forced to restart just by issuing the
command (as user), 'touch tmp/restart.txt'
On my setups (RH/CentOS/Fedora), apache is both user and group and apache web
server runs as user:group apache:apache
thus...
drwxrwxr-x 3 craig apache 4096 2010-03-21 03:17 log
drwxrwxr-x 7 craig apache 4096 2010-03-06 01:23 tmp
note: apache group on both folders and group permissions are rwx (or chmod 775
log tmp)
also, inside tmp...
$ ls -l tmp/
total 16
drwxrwxr-x 3 craig apache 4096 2010-02-09 02:58 cache
drwxrwxr-x 3 craig apache 4096 2010-02-09 02:58 pids
-rw-rw-r-- 1 craig craig 0 2010-03-23 00:12 restart.txt
drwxrwxr-x 3 craig apache 4096 2010-02-09 02:58 sessions
drwxrwxr-x 3 craig apache 4096 2010-02-09 02:58 sockets
the only places you should even think about changing ownership (log & tmp) and
even then, just the group bits, not the user.
root is used nowhere.
The other thing you have to make certain of, is that if you are running apache
from your home directory, that the apache user (in your case, www-data) can
actually access.
so ls -ld /home /home/justinscheier /home/justinscheier/www
/home/justinscheier/www/testapp1 must all be 'o+x' so the web server user can
access.
** log files (with logrotate handling weekly rotation, development log only
updates when I run script/console)
$ ls -l log
total 23932
