Phusion Passenger (mod_rails) support

We've had lots of requests for Passenger support. Well we've been listening.

We're currently testing a new release of our plugin that comes with Passenger support built right in

You can install the plugin with:

script/plugin install git://github.com/davidjrice/exceptional.git --force

You may also need to install the json (that's right, json!) gem

sudo gem install json

Big thanks to Scott Chacon for his mod_rails patch that tided us through until now.

    Hey guys,

    I'm having trouble with the json gem: We have custom to_json methods and installing the json gem clashes with the json bundled with ActiveSupport. Why do you need the gem?

    Hi Florian,

    I filled you in on email, but for the benefit of anyone reading, the new plugin supports any Ruby environment, so we can't presume that it's going to be used in Rails.

    Cheers,

    Paul

    I've resolved the issues with ActiveSupport incompatibility over at my fork of Exceptional. http://github.com/davidjrice/exceptional/tree

    Accomplished by using the built in to_json methods. As soon as I can solve the issue of backwards compatibility with older rails versions we'll be updating the official repo. http://github.com/contrast/exceptional/tree

    Best, Dave
