Redmine

• Ubuntu
• Rails 2.3.5
• Passenger 2.2.4

I went through and did the upgrade from Redmine 8.X to 9.X. No real issues other than some routing ones where Passenger didn't seem to properly route my requests. I solved this issue by editing environment.rb and adding:

config.action_controller.relative_url_root = "/ticketing" 

I can now browse to my installation and view all the tickets, menus and other features, but I am not able to save anything. When I try to save something I get a 500 server error and this in my logs:

I have no clue what is going on here, but from what I read it seems to be a permission issue. I went through and recursively set the owner of the whole directory to the web server and the permissions to valid writable permissions. I am not sure where to turn here.
