Redmine installation does not work with apache passenger

Question

I've installed redmine 2.1 on a server (Ubuntu 12.04 LTS) which now produces the 500 Server error message.

I've configured to use apache passenger and installed via

xxxx:/usr/local/vhost/redmine# ruby --version
ruby 1.8.7 (2011-06-30 patchlevel 352) [x86_64-linux]


gem --version
1.8.15


xxxxx:/usr/local/vhost/redmine/log# bundle --version
Bundler version 1.2.3


Started GET "/" for 217.247.62.52 at Sat Jan 05 13:39:34 +0000 2013
Processing by WelcomeController#index as HTML
Completed 500 Internal Server Error in 1ms

NoMethodError (undefined method `accept' for nil:NilClass):
  app/models/setting.rb:152:in `check_cache'
  app/controllers/application_controller.rb:82:in `user_setup'

My database.yml adapter is already on mysql2:

production:
  adapter: mysql2
  database: redmine
  host: localhost
  username: root
  password: *****
  encoding: utf8

but this seemed to be wrong, cause i'm using ruby 1.8.7 and not 1.9.X.

Does someone has an idea where to look?

Update After retrying i got the following message from passgen on the web-site:

Error message:

As @khmarbaise states, his link gave me the solution:

Behind the link we find that Passenger treats the rails-application as a rack-application now, thus a apache2-config which was:

RailsBaseURI /redmine

should now be

RackBaseURI /redmine

This made it work for me (source)

That was the solution for me. I've got the same error page @khmarbaise posted. – nyuwec Jul 02 '14 at 10:20

It was partially the answer of @Michael Witrant cause after searching a while i found the following link which broad me to the correct steps. After changing this using the recommended entries in the apache configuration i changed the configuration from mysql2 to mysql adapter in database.yml file and it works.

You may have the same problem as in this question: Rails 3: Model.all => NoMethodError: undefined method 'accept' for nil:NilClass

Try to use the mysql2 adapter instead of mysql in database.yml.
