To get the latest version, please see the Passenger preference pane page.

X-Mas came early this year ;-)

Checkout the changelog:

• Rack support. Thanks to Kematzy for the original suggestion/work.
• Fixed “issue” people had with the default non-vhost based directory not working anymore. Thanks to “spike” for debugging this.
• Made the vhost config file extension configurable as well. Patch by Felipe Mathies.
• Backported RubyCocoa + Ruby 1.8.7 fix. Patch by Grant Hollingworth.
• Removed the “Allow mod rewrite rules” checkbox, we found it’s not worth the UI real estate.

Most users probably want to download the “stable” 1.2 release.

If you understand why stable has been quoted, you can track development and contribute on: github.com/alloy/passengerpane

It has been possible to specify gem dependencies for your application for a while. But sometimes when moving to another machine we would complain about there not being a development dependency option for config.gem as there is for gems. But we hadn’t actually given it any thought…

Today I had some weird test failures, which were related to not having test-spec 0.9 installed on my macbook. Most tests did pass because I did have an older version installed. So after a few minutes of thinking about it, I finally figured out the stupid simple solution. Simply define the dependencies in config/environments/test.rb!

# Development gems:
config.gem 'test-spec', :version => '0.9', :lib => 'test/spec'
config.gem 'mocha', :version => '0.9.3'

This one is probably obvious to some, but as far as I know it has never been actively promoted. And it’s just too easy to think of ;-)
