Hey, I really like to know how you used Passenger + Nginx to have a production in your VPS. I would like to check it in my own VPS. If possible guide me through it.

Hello @akhil , sorry for replying late. Although I've deployed it in production mode at rehmat.works but I still don't feel confident. I'd rather wait for a final (and production-ready) release of Forem before starting using the CMS to manage content. To get this working with NGINX and Passenger, you need to build NGINX using Passenger. The guide is available at Passenger official website. The important thing to keep in mind is that you need to set all environmental variables for Passenger in NGINX configuration otherwise Forem will crash. If you need any specific help, I can post the NGINX configuration file here.

Hey can you post the nginx configuration file, I realised that ready to dev might take some time and unable to configure nginx on my own.
