BYOE = Bring Your Own Executable I just realized this, maybe it''s useful and worth trying out if "bundler exec unicorn" is giving you problems. unicorn would be specified in your Gemfile -------------------------- 8< --------------------------------- #!/home/ew/r/trunk/bin/ruby # replace the above shebang with wherever your Ruby executable is # installed. require "rubygems" require "bundler/setup" # Gem.bin_path(gem_name, executable_name, *version_requirements) load Gem.bin_path("unicorn", "unicorn") --------------------------------------------------------------- This above file should be executable and be checked-in with your application source tree (e.g. "script/unicorn-byoe") This also allows you to switch between different Ruby installs by modifying the shebang. Isolate users can do something similar... -- Eric Wong
