[...] 下面比较一下二者： 1. 同时对多个本地app进行开发时，passenger比webrick好。因为不需要对于每个app都开一个webrick server，而且对于每个server还需要指定不同的port。 2. 在查看request的信息方面，passenger和webrick差不多。webrick是直接在terminal中显示每个request的信息;而在使用passenger时，则可以通过动态显示development.log的方式进行查看。 3. 在debug方面，webrick会比passenger方便些。在使用webrick时，只需要使用u option来启动server，那么app就会在运行时中断在程序中写有debugger语句的地方。可是，在使用passenger时，debug可能会比较麻烦。目前看到的有两种方式，一种是通过使用remote debug的方式，具体可以参考Passenger (mod_rails) for development. Now with debugger! 。另一种是使用rack-debug，它是一个ruby-debug的interface，其使用方式和webrick没有多大区别，但是唯一一点令我难受的时，对于每个rails app，都需要添加一个middleware来实现rack-debug的功能，但是由于可以通过version control在真正的app里过滤掉这些文件，其实并没有多大影响。 [...]

I put together a Rails plugin to make using the ruby debugger under Passenger a lot easier.

Awesome work. Just what I was looking for.

Just a note for anyone getting errors though — I had to update my ruby-debug gem to get this working. Before that I was able to start the server, and it would pause at a breakpoint, but when I connected to the server it would show an error (in terminal) and continue. After upgrading the gem it worked like a charm though!

Actually, those should be “= 1″ not “= true” and depending on your version of rdebug the autoreload setting may not be available.

Thanks Adam, those config options are a great help.

Note that you can also set these in environment.rb like so:

Debugger.settings[:autoeval] = true
Debugger.settings[:autolist] = true
Debugger.settings[:autoreload] = true
