Under sudo user:
sudo apt-get update
To install RVM, open terminal and type in this command:
curl -L get.rvm.io | bash -s stable
After it is done installing, load RVM.
source ~/.rvm/scripts/rvm
In order to work, RVM has some of its own dependancies that need to be installed. You can see what these are:
rvm requirements
rvm install 1.9.3
rvm use 1.9.3 --default
rvm rubygems current
gem install passenger
sudo apt-get install libcurl4-openssl-dev
Here is where Passenger really shines. As we are looking to install Rails on an nginx server, we only need to enter one more line into terminal:
rvmsudo passenger-install-nginx-module
sudo service nginx start
Also can use this script for init.d service
wget -O init-deb.sh http://library.linode.com/assets/660-init-deb.sh
sudo mv init-deb.sh /etc/init.d/nginx
sudo chmod +x /etc/init.d/nginx
sudo /usr/sbin/update-rc.d -f nginx defaults
after that you can control nginx with
sudo /etc/init.d/nginx stop
sudo /etc/init.d/nginx start
sudo /etc/init.d/nginx restart
