Can't remove a site using the [-] key

[walterdavis]

If I remove a site using the [-] button, it disappears from the list, but if I close the preference pane and open it back up, it's still there.

[alloy]

Could you check the logs (Console.app) to see if anything interesting gets print out when removing the application?

Here's every little thing related to passenger from my system log:

Please let me know if there are any specific things you would like me to try.

One other thing I noted was this:

1. Install pref pane by double-clicking.
2. Choose "for all users" when asked.
3. System Preferences tells me that I will be asked for my password when I do so, but then NEVER ASKS FOR IT.
4. The fun noted above begins.

Passenger worked fine through all this. I put an app in from my Documents folder, then when I discovered that Paperclip was having trouble saving files there, I deleted the site, moved the entire rails site folder to the /Library/WebServer/Documents folder and added it back from there. After further permissions fiddling, it seemed to work pretty well. I did continue to have trouble saving files from Paperclip -- the save action would seem to hang -- never redirect to index or view. The files would be saved, though. A reload would show them there.

Sorry for the lack of updates, I've been sick the last few weeks…

So it complains that the vhost file doesn't exist at: /private/etc/apache2/passenger_pane_vhosts/frames.local.vhost.conf. Does it?

[walterdavis]

No, it's not there. Further, it did append its configuration to the end of the main httpd.conf file, and then could not seem to remove that when it was asked to remove the site through the Preference Pane.
