How can I tell what server an old version of Redmine is running on?

Question

I have an old install of Redmine sitting on an Ubuntu 10.04 LTS server. I know the path to where the Redmine install is, at /srv/www/redmine, but not much more.

Because I didn't set it up, I don't really know what server platform it is running on, although one of the log file errors leads me to believe it might be nginx, but word of mouth suggests it might be running on mongrel.

Where should I be looking / how can I find out what webserver the Redmine install is running on?

I've tried commands like mongral_rails, which apache, which nginx and every other variation I can think of, but I'm not terribly familiar with ruby, so they're all just shots in the dark.

Try in this possible dirs if you can find the files to find out:

For Apache:

• /etc/apache2/sites-enabled And look for your /srv/www/redmine/public

For Nginx

• /etc/nginx/conf.d or /etc/nginx/sites-enabled or /opt/nginx/conf/conf.d or something like that

That would do it under any standard setup, but you know every master has its own recipes.

If the app is up and running, another easy option if there is no complex situation to find out which services are running 'ps aux', do it while browsing the app.
