problem installing redmine

Hi,
I installed for the first time a ruby based script.
I ran into problems and don't really know how to solve it.

Here's the setup:
I installed ruby using the ppa from here:
https://launchpad.net/~ondrej/+archive/ppa

Reason: Installed all required packages to run.

I then configured an vHost with this:

RailsEnv production
        SetEnv X_DEBIAN_SITEID "default" 
            SetEnv RAILS_RELATIVE_URL_ROOT "/admin/project" 
        Alias /admin/project/plugin_assets /var/cache/redmine/default/plugin_assets/
        Alias /admin/project /usr/share/redmine/public
        &lt;Directory /usr/share/redmine/public/&gt;
                Order deny,allow
                Allow from all
            RewriteEngine On
            RewriteBase "/admin/project" 
            RewriteRule ^{$ index.html [QSA]
            RewriteRule ^([}.]+)$ $1.html [QSA]
            RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f [OR]
            RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} dispatch.fcgi$
            RewriteRule ^(.*)$ dispatch.fcgi [QSA,L]
        &lt;/Directory&gt;

I have to use a subdirectory because we want to have it ssl protected.

Wenn I enter the page I get this note:

Forbidden

You don't have permission to access /admin/project/dispatch.fcgi on this server.

This server only has one customer so www-data is used as web server user.

I only posted one entry, as the rest is identical.
I tried to set it up with apache2 and passenger

What am I doing wrong?

Read my guide for sub-uri deployment, your config looks too complicated, why the rewrites?

Although your apache may run as www-data, I assume your passenger doesn't by default:
http://www.modrails.com/documentation/Users%20guide%20Apache.html#PassengerDefaultUser

Perhaps you need to set PassengerDefaultUser?

the fix was quite simple.
I had the following lines to much:

RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f [OR]
            RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} dispatch.fcgi$
            RewriteRule ^(.*)$ dispatch.fcgi [QSA,L]

they point to the fcgi script
