My website has been broken since Dreamhost upgraded their servers a couple of weeks ago. I have been tearing my hair out trying to get it fixed and made some progress but am stuck on what is hopefully the final issue.
I'm using Rails 3.1.1 on Ruby 1.8.7 and get presented with a 'Ruby (Rack) application could not be started error' from PhusionPassenger. It states that it 'Could not find a JavaScript runtime. See https://github.com/sstephenson/execjs for a list of available runtimes. (ExecJS::RuntimeUnavailable)'. Searching for this on Dreamhost's wiki has suggested a solution to install 'therubyracer' gem.
So I updated my gemfile with the suggested gem like so:
gem 'therubyracer', '~> 0.9.9'
EDIT: I have also tried adding to the file with:
gem 'therubyracer', :platforms => :ruby
but it hasn't made a difference.
Then bundle installed on my Macbook (running OS X 10.5.8) without hitch. However, this fails when I run 'cap deploy' to put on Dreamhost; I see an error when it attempts to install libv8 which therubyracer depends on.
Anyone know how to get this to install correctly or any other working solution?
Any other info can be provided upon request.

libv8 is an OS library; you'll need to install the correct Linux system library. If you're running Ubuntu, it's
ReplyDeletesudo apt-get install libv8-dev
Alternatively, you can install node.js which is available as a Debian/Ubuntu package for various distros, e.g. http://ppa.launchpad.net/chris-lea/node.js/ubuntu
You may save yourself a lot of trouble by deploying on Heroku instead where you don't have to manage the OS or components for gems.
If you're on Ubuntu, install nodejs
ReplyDeletesudo apt-get install nodejs
i use this gems on Dreamhost with Rails 3.1 for the Asset Pipeline
ReplyDeletegroup :assets do
gem 'execjs'
gem 'therubyracer', :platforms => :ruby
gem 'johnson'
gem 'sass-rails', " ~> 3.1.0"
gem 'coffee-rails', "~> 3.1.0"
gem 'uglifier'
end
therubyracer as precompiler, and johnson as runtime.
This work for me in 2 Rails 3.1 apps hosted by Dreamhost.
I just a saw a presentation on this.
ReplyDeleteI've used rubytheracer up till now. Apparently it ain't so great. And it's huge.
But you can use any javascript runtime.
The other two recommended are execjs and node.js (which is very hot right now).
Make sure to gem install the selected gem and then bundle install or bundle update for your app.
One other note is that you should switch to 1.9.2 also.
Install RVM (bash < <(curl -s https://raw.github.com/wayneeseguin/rvm/master/binscripts/rvm-installer))
and you can have both 1.8.7 and 1.9.2 side-by-side.
