Dear Maintainer,

   * What led up to the situation?

     I was upgrading our puppetmaster/foreman server from Debian 7 to 8. The upgarde didn't end up well so I ended up purging everything puppet, foreman and apache. After installing these again and running foreman-installer, as described here: http://theforeman.org/manuals/1.8/quickstart_guide.html#QuickstartGuide, I got the following error:

     Setting up libapache2-mod-passenger (4.0.53-1) ...
     dpkg: error processing package libapache2-mod-passenger (--configure):
      subprocess installed post-installation script returned error exit status 1
     Errors were encountered while processing:
      libapache2-mod-passenger
     E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1)


   * What exactly did you do (or not do) that was effective (or
     ineffective)?

     I've tried running dpkg --configure libapache2-mod-passenger and dpkg-reconfigure libapache2-mod-passenger which results in the very same error.

   * What was the outcome of this action?

     The above error.

   * What outcome did you expect instead?

     The package to be installed.

Hello Rovanion, thanks for reporting this problem.

Can you scroll up on that log and look for the actual error that
happened during the postinst for libapache2-mod-passenger?  It might
still be in /var/log/apt/term.log
