Dreamhost: two different Ruby versions and gemsets?

Question

I am using dreamhost shared server. I get this error message, I do not understand what these error means. Does this shows passenger uses dreamhost default ruby 1.8 instead of my local 1.9.3? These error messages shows passesnger is using usr/lib/ instead of my home folders. Thanks in advance.

In config/environmnet.rb:
# Load the rails application
require File.expand_path('../application', __FILE__)

# Initialize the rails application
RailsMichaelcunnaneCom::Application.initialize!

Last time I deployed a Rails 3 application Dreamhost didn't offer 1.9.2. So my app used default 1.8.7. I think they still don't offer 1.9.2.

I didn't use RVM, I wanted that at first but I think it is too much of a hassle. Dreamhost Wiki has information but it was unsupported. So no help from Dreamhost if things go wrong. No help also when using your own 1.9.2.

On my laptop I use RVM of course but on Dreamhost PS just Dreamhost Ruby 1.8.7. The only thing I needed to change to get my Passenger Rails 3 app working was .gemrc in home directory which only has

gemhome: /home/myuser/.gems/
gempath:
- /home/myuser/.gems/

I think I used/read this article and found it useful http://grigio.org/finally_rails_3_dreamhost_tips_n_fail. And this one http://stackoverflow.com/questions/2250247/rails-3-on-dreamhost — onknows, May 13 '12 at 09:58
