Rails seems to be writing console output to /var/log/httpd/error_log

Question

I'm using passenger and apache, and my error logs are filing up fast. The message does start with stderr, but this is the same info I get in the console if I just run rails s from the directory the App is in when the app is accessed. This seems more like access_logs info to me.

Where is the rails log info setup at?

App 6571 stderr: 2014-03-10 13:51:07 -0400: GET http://localhost:9200/_search [status:200, request:0.381s, query:0.125s]

Answer 1

Following the documentation at Phusion Passenger's site, you can change the location via the PassengerDebugLogFile option in Apache.
