Got an e-mail from site5 today saying that Phusion Passenger was going to be upgraded and that I needed to add the directive "PassengerAppRoot /home/user/applicationroot" to my .htaccess file in order for my site to continue working after the upgrade.

I had some issues with the upgrade initially, and figured out that you need to know the correct .htaccess file in order for the directive to not break your site.  My issue was that I put the directive in the base public_html directory .htaccess initially when I first got the e-mail.  This totally hosed my typo blog's admin section, to the point of giving me 404 not found errors.  I later realized that I needed to stick the directive in the .htaccess file that resided in the public directory of my rails application directory as well.  So now everything is working fine (obviously since I'm writing this post....)

Here's a link to a forum post I made for it:
