phusion passenger and mongrel cluster (both on apache) in the same server

Hello all,

Does anyone know if it is possible to use both PP and mongrel cluster on the same server? We have a running server here with mongrel cluster but I would like to run a specific application on phusion passenger.

Would I face any problem with that setup?

Cheers

You'd probably want to use RackAutoDetect / RailsAutoDetect (depending on whether you've got a rails 3 or rails 2.x app) so that passenger doesn't try and handle the mongrel cluster using app. (or just use passenger for both apps)

Since I’m using mod_rewrite and sending the mongrel_cluster app to another port, would it still be a problem?

thanks!

You still need to stop passenger trying to serve the app for you, hence the use of RackAutoDetect/RailsAutoDetect

Got it working! Like a charm.

Thank you very much!
