Apache + Passenger on OSX

I'm trying to get Passenger working on a fresh install of OSX Snow Leopard and can't get around this permission issue:

[Thu May 12 16:06:34 2011] [error] [client 127.0.0.1] (13)Permission denied

Here is my vhost configuration:

<VirtualHost *:80>     DocumentRoot "/Users/tom/sites/mysite/public"     # RackEnv production     ServerName mysite.local     <Directory "/Users/tom/sites/mysite/public">       Options Indexes FollowSymLinks       AllowOverride None       Order allow,deny       Allow from any     </Directory> </VirtualHost>

I have verified its hitting the right vhost, but it continues to report permission denied? I've also tried variations of file permissions on the site folder (777 even!) but no joy. Any help is much appreciated!

Thanks, Tom

Silly question - have you checked permissions on ALL dirs in the path, including /Users and your home?

Hi Tom,

I use on my MBP this nice passenger preference pane, which does all the configuration for me. works like a charm: https://github.com/Fingertips/passengerpane
