What exactly is your problem? I have 5 or 6 sites running with Passenger now and do all of my local testing with it. I haven’t really had an issues. Can you be a bit more specific? Keith ---

I was going to post a message about a problem I’m having with radiant on passenger on a vps, but I guess I’ll just reply in this thread. When I start the site it works fine, until radiant tries to regenerate the cache. When the cache expires I get a 500 error and the only solution is to clean by hand the cache directory. The ownership is ok (www-data:www-data) and the permissions are 0777. 2008/9/16 Keith B. [removed\_email\_address@domain.invalid](mailto:removed_email_address@domain.invalid): ---

Make sure you kill the Rails .htaccess in /public. This works for me with passenger: \ ServerName [server.com](http://server.com) ServerAlias [www.server.com](http://www.server.com) DocumentRoot /home/user/public\_html/server.com/radiant/current/public ``` ErrorLog /var/log/apache2/error.log # Possible values include: debug, info, notice, warn, error, crit, # alert, emerg. LogLevel warn CustomLog /var/log/apache2/access.log combined ``` On Tue, Sep 16, 2008 at 7:49 AM, Bhupendra Chaudhari ---

What errors do you see in the Apache logs when this happens? I’ve never looked at Radiant’s caching, since it Just Works for me; is there a way to force the cache to expire, so I can see what happens on my (working) setup? Jay L. ---

In fact, I don’t even have to do anything to the config; it “just works”: \ ServerName [www.wellesleycarriagehouse.com](http://www.wellesleycarriagehouse.com) DocumentRoot /srv/www/sites/wellesleycarriagehouse.com/public CustomLog /var/log/httpd/wellesleycarriagehouse.com.access.log combined Bhupi, what sort of errors are you seeing in the browser? What do the logs say? (Depending on your Linux distro, Apache might be writing its logs to /etc/httpd/logs or someplace equally odd, so be sure to look around.)
