Phusion Passenger version 2.0.x and under are incompatible with Rails 2.3.×. This is a public service announcement to remind you to upgrade your application server in the event of a Rails upgrade.
The incompatibility manifests itself, often, in very unusual ways. For example, an authentication system for a project I’m working on mysteriously failed to operate correctly. No one could sign in. Fail. The sad part was that all tests passed, especially those around the sign in system. I know, because I checked, and double checked, and checked some more.
So, if you’ve recently upgraded to Rails 2.3, be sure to be working off of Phusion Passenger 2.1.2 or later. For more information about the release and the upgrade, see the Phusion Corporate Blog release notice.
