Deploying rails application. Getting 500 errors

Question

Trying to deploy my rails application but when access through web I'm getting 500 error saying that

     The application spawner server exited unexpectedly: Unexpected end-of-file detected.

Exception class:
    PhusionPassenger::Railz::ApplicationSpawner::Error

I googled the whole internet but found only couple of guys who had the same problem. One of them had it related to improper installation of facebooker gem, but I don't even have it.

Any ideas? I've been struggling with it past hours

I'm using

ruby 1.9.1p378 passenger-2.2.15 + nginx

* LOCAL GEMS *

actionmailer (2.3.8)
actionpack (2.3.8)
activerecord (2.3.8)
activeresource (2.3.8)
activesupport (2.3.8)
fastthread (1.0.7)
rack (1.1.0)
rails (2.3.8)
rake (0.8.7)
rubygems-update (1.3.7)
sqlite3-ruby (1.3.1)

Are you using passenger on apache or nginx? Post your nginx or apache config here. — Joshua Partogi
Have you checked your Rails log file (log/production.log)? — Jason Weathered
Do you get this error when running it in development? What ruby version are you using in dev? — Joshua Partogi
1. passenger on nginx server { listen 3333; server_name localhost; root html/elections/current/public; passenger_enabled on; } 2. log/production.log is empty 3. no errors at all in development. ruby version is 1.8.7 here, I'm trying to downgrade ruby version on production server now — Arty

Fixed. It looks like I just forgot to do rake RAILS_ENV=production db:schema:load on deployment server.
