Cannot upgrade passenger on ubuntu 14.04 LTS

Question

Running Apache+Passenger 5.1.12. Passenger was installed according to the docs for how to install passenger on Apache + Ubuntu 14.04 (via apt). Apache logs said I should upgrade to 5.3.X. According to the docs, I should be able to update passenger via apt-get update .

I get several Ign messages for the passenger repository when running apt-get update and no matter what I try, my passenger never updates, it always installs the same version I originally installed (5.1.12).

Are the repositories broken? Has anyone successfully updated their passenger on Ubuntu 14.04 using apt?

Answer 1

The packages of Ubuntu just contains Passenger up to 5.0.30 , but the repository of Passenger has the version up to 6.0.0, but it seems no Apache plugins in this repo.

I am not so sure if install from that binary or install from source can get any help...
