Redmine 2 on Hostmonster apache fcgi: Rails application failed to start properly

Question

I have followed install instructions until configuration section to install redmine 2 on hostmonster. When running domain.com/redmine I have always 500 error

Rails application failed to start properly

I havent any log about this error in log/production.log. Here is the file:

OpenIdAuthentication.store is nil. Using in-memory store.

My redmine should work with fcgi, so here is my public/.htaccess:

# General Apache options
<IfModule mod_fastcgi.c>
    AddHandler fastcgi-script .fcgi
</IfModule>
<IfModule mod_fcgid.c>
AddHandler fcgid-script .fcgi
</IfModule>
<IfModule mod_cgi.c>
AddHandler cgi-script .cgi
</IfModule>
Options +SymLinksIfOwnerMatch +ExecCGI

RewriteEngine On

RewriteRule ^$ index.html [QSA]
RewriteRule ^([^.]+)$ $1.html [QSA]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
<IfModule mod_fastcgi.c>
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ dispatch.fcgi [QSA,L]
</IfModule>
<IfModule mod_fcgid.c>
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ dispatch.fcgi [QSA,L]
</IfModule>
<IfModule mod_cgi.c>
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ dispatch.cgi [QSA,L]
</IfModule>

ErrorDocument 500 "<h2>Application error</h2>Rails application failed to start properly"

And here is my public/dispatch.fcgi:

#!/usr/bin/env ruby

require File.dirname(__FILE__) + '/../config/boot'
require File.dirname(__FILE__) + '/../config/environment'

class Rack::PathInfoRewriter
  def initialize(app)
    @app = app
  end

  def call(env)
    env.delete('SCRIPT_NAME')
    parts = env['REQUEST_URI'].split('?')
    env['PATH_INFO'] = parts[0]
    env['QUERY_STRING'] = parts[1].to_s
    @app.call(env)
  end
end

Rack::Handler::FastCGI.run Rack::PathInfoRewriter.new(RedmineApp::Application)

Is there any misconfiguration?

are all the correct gems installed ?

here is my dispatch.fcgi :

   #!/usr/bin/ruby
   #
   # You may specify the path to the FastCGI crash log (a log of unhandled
   # exceptions which forced the FastCGI instance to exit, great for debugging)
   # and the number of requests to process before running garbage collection.
   #
   # By default, the FastCGI crash log is RAILS_ROOT/log/fastcgi.crash.log
   # and the GC period is nil (turned off).  A reasonable number of requests
   # could range from 10-100 depending on the memory footprint of your app.
   #
   # Example:
   #   # Default log path, normal GC behavior.
   #   RailsFCGIHandler.process!
   #
   #   # Default log path, 50 requests between GC.
   #   RailsFCGIHandler.process! nil, 50
   #
   #   # Custom log path, normal GC behavior.
   #   RailsFCGIHandler.process! '/var/log/myapp_fcgi_crash.log'
   #
   require File.dirname(__FILE__) + "/../config/environment"
   require 'fcgi_handler'

   RailsFCGIHandler.process!

and my .htaccess

# General Apache options
<IfModule mod_fastcgi.c>
    AddHandler fastcgi-script .fcgi
</IfModule>
<IfModule mod_fcgid.c>
#   AddHandler fcgid-script .fcgi
</IfModule>
<IfModule mod_cgi.c>
#   AddHandler cgi-script .cgi
</IfModule>
# For security reasons, Option followsymlinks cannot be overridden.
#Options +FollowSymLinks +ExecCGI
Options +SymLinksIfOwnerMatch +ExecCGI

# If you don't want Rails to look in certain directories,
# use the following rewrite rules so that Apache won't rewrite certain requests
#
# Example:
#   RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} ^/notrails.*
#   RewriteRule .* - [L]

# Redirect all requests not available on the filesystem to Rails
# By default the cgi dispatcher is used which is very slow
#
# For better performance replace the dispatcher with the fastcgi one
#
# Example:
#   RewriteRule ^(.*)$ dispatch.fcgi [QSA,L]
RewriteEngine On

# If your Rails application is accessed via an Alias directive,
# then you MUST also set the RewriteBase in this htaccess file.
#
# Example:
#   Alias /myrailsapp /path/to/myrailsapp/public
#   RewriteBase /myrailsapp

Options -MultiViews
PassengerResolveSymlinksInDocumentRoot on
#Change to your environment
RailsEnv production

RewriteBase /
RewriteRule ^$ index.html [QSA]
RewriteRule ^([^.]+)$ $1.html [QSA]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
<IfModule mod_fastcgi.c>
    RewriteRule ^(.*)$ dispatch.fcgi [QSA,L]
</IfModule>
<IfModule mod_fcgid.c>
    RewriteRule ^(.*)$ dispatch.fcgi [QSA,L]
</IfModule>
<IfModule mod_cgi.c>
    RewriteRule ^(.*)$ dispatch.cgi [QSA,L]
</IfModule>

# In case Rails experiences terminal errors
# Instead of displaying this message you can supply a file here which will be rendered instead
#
# Example:
#   ErrorDocument 500 /500.html

ErrorDocument 500 "<h2>Application error</h2>Rails application failed to start properly"
#RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^redmine.acme-tech.net$ [OR]
#RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^www.redmine.acme-tech.net$
#RewriteRule ^(.*)$ "http\:\/\/127\.0\.0\.1\:12018\/$1" [P,L]

hope it helps

Thanks for sharing files but I do have passenger error now! I think Passenger is not available on Hostmonster. Is it? — addex03, May 25 '12 at 09:31
It apparently isn't: http://railsforum.com/viewtopic.php?id=41623 -- http://railsforum.com/viewtopic.php?id=39146 — Samy Dindane, May 28 '12 at 14:47
@Gjergj Shelija Thanks A LOT! You just saved me a lot of hair on my head, i was about to give up with setting up redmine on my server and stay with the local version but thanks to you i got it working :) — Dany Khalife, Jun 02 '13 at 15:56

It was a gems path issue. Thanks to this no such file to load -- bundler/setup in Rails 3.2 with Passenger I added this line in /public/.htaccess:

SetEnv GEM_PATH /path-to-ruby-gems/ruby/gems
