Bug 999384

I did some investigation on this and I found that the 'bin/' directory is excluded in rubygem-passenger-3.0.21-5.el6oso which is the version we are currently using for ruby-1.8.

The reason, from the RPM spec file is:

# XXX: removing everything in bin until daemon_controller >= 1.0.0
%{__rm} -rf %{buildroot}%{gem_instdir}/bin

This change was brought in by Brett Lentz (CC'ing this bug) and I guess the reason was that the passenger-status and probably other commands won't work with daemon_controller < 1.0 (currently not available for RHEL).

I've fixed the daemon_controller spec and will be building it for EPEL and OpenShift Online. Once that is done, we can restore the bin/ directory in the passenger package.

Check this bug on devenv-stage_448 ,still can reproduce this bug.

Wei Sun, we need to wait until Brett build the updated passenger package with bin/ dir enabled.

Packages for rubygem-daemon_controller and rubygem-passenger are now built.

Check this bug on STG(devenv-stage_452),devenv-stage_452,devenv_3691.Still can reproduce this bug.

Result:

Wei, can you please retry? I think it takes 1d or so for mirrors to sync... The package was pushed to stable just yesterday. Also make sure you have the latest rubygem-passenger installed.

This issue is reproduced and met "Phusion Passenger doesn't seem to be running" errors on devenv_3734, please refer to the following results:

1. Run "passenger-status" directly
1) SSH into instance and check the rubygem-passenger version

2) Create a ruby-1.8 app and ssh into this app to execute "passenger-status"
\> passenger-status

2. Run "passenger-status" after gem install "passenger"

The update should be now pushed, could you please re-test?

chunsen:

The script should be now installed in '/usr/share/rubygems/gems/passenger-3.0.21/bin/passenger-status'.

I'll work on adding this to $OPENSHIFT_RUBY_PATH_ELEMENT tomorrow morning so this command will become available without specifying the whole path.

So after some investigation, the passenger-status command is not the right one :(

[root@ip-10-242-66-32 ~]# /usr/share/rubygems/gems/passenger-3.0.21/bin/passenger-status

/usr/lib/ruby/site_ruby/1.8/rubygems.rb:779:in `report_activate_error': Could not find RubyGem passenger (>= 0) (Gem::LoadError)
	from /usr/lib/ruby/site_ruby/1.8/rubygems.rb:214:in `activate'
	from /usr/lib/ruby/site_ruby/1.8/rubygems.rb:1082:in `gem'
	from /usr/share/rubygems/gems/passenger-3.0.21/bin/passenger-status:18

This is because the 'passenger-status' script is just a runner for the real script:

if ARGV.first =~ /^_(.*)_$/ and Gem::Version.correct? $1 then
  version = $1
  ARGV.shift
end

gem 'passenger', version
load Gem.bin_path('passenger', 'passenger-status', version

Can you explain what you mean by "not the right one" ?

The passenger-status command is what ships with the passenger tarball.

rubygems basically create an 'launcher' script upon the gem install that is placed to the $PATH (/usr/bin usually)... This launcher then points to the 'original' ruby script/binary which is located in the $GEM_HOME (/usr/share/rubygems/.../passenger-xyz/bin) 

The current passenger RPM installs the launcher into $GEM_HOME and the original ('right one' ;-) file is not being installed. So this launcher points to a file which does not exists in RPM...

The 'passenger-status' command is definitely present in passenger-xyz.gem (gem unpack passenger.gem).

I'll check this out tomorrow morning as first thing.

Created attachment 796296 [details]
Updated rubygem-passenger spec file

I tried to fix this by adding a 'suffix' to the passenger commands (as they might conflict with the SCL ones...)

So for now all commands are installed into _bindir and suffixed by '-3'. We might consider using different suffix, like '-mri18' or something similar.

I found the issue. Our spec file was using the wrong %gem_dir for el6.

Confirmed fixed in rubygem-passenger-3.0.21-10.el6oso.

Will verify this bug after rubygem-passenger is rubygem-passenger-3.0.21-10.el6oso

On the latest devenv(devenv_3884) and latest devenv-stage(devenv-stage_488),  rubygem-passenger is still not upgraded to above version, please help double confirming:

yum update  rubygem-passenger does not find any updates as well.

The package has been synced. It should now be available in devenv.

Checked this bug on devenv_3886 with rubygem-passenger-3.0.21-10.el6oso.x86_64,but still got error:

'Require: rubygem-daemon_controller' was commented out for some reason.

Fixed in rubygem-passenger-3.0.21-11.el6oso

I've encountered this bug myself.  I'd like to test the fix, but I've been googling like mad and I can't figure out what "devenv" is or how to get the updated packages.  My apologies for my ignorance of the development process.  If someone could point me to the packages or any docs about how to use devenv, I'd be grateful.

Steve -

What you're seeing is a discussion of packages used to run OpenShift Online. The packages being mentioned aren't available for public consumption. These packages will eventually also be a part of a future OpenShift Enterprise release.

I'll be updating the EPEL packages to incorporate these changes, also. As soon as that happens, you'll be able to consume the EPEL version.

OK.  Is there a different bug ID for EPEL or should I just keep following this one?

Check devenv_3912,rubygem-passenger is rubygem-passenger-3.0.21-10.el6oso.x86_64,will verify this bug when rubygem-passenger is rubygem-passenger-3.0.21-11.el6oso

(In reply to Steve Snodgrass from comment #24)

Go ahead and continue following this bug. I'll update it when I push the new build to EPEL.

Since it's still not ready for QE to test, move it back to Assigned.

Xiaoli: It looks to me that the changes are now available in latest devenv:

Any word on getting this in EPEL?  Even having it in epel-testing would be really helpful.

Here you go:
https://admin.fedoraproject.org/updates/rubygem-passenger-3.0.21-11.el6

Any change on promoting this version (3.0.21-11.el6) to the EPEL stable repo.

I tested everything and it works with this version on centos6.5.

The current stable version (3.0.21-5.el6) is broken, and should be replaced with the working one.

I've marked it as stable.  It should make it into EPEL6 stable in a day or two.  (However long it takes for stable packages to make it in.)
