I believe this is a duplicate of issue #3 . Could you follow the instructions that I
posted in issue #3 ?

After I follow the instruction in issue #3 , here's the result

Try to run those ruby script:

"cannot open /Applications/MAMP/Library/build/config_vars.mk: No such file or
directory at /Applications/MAMP/Library/bin/apxs line 218."

It seems that either your MAMP installation is broken, or MAMP itself is broken.
Could you reinstall MAMP and/or contact the MAMP developers about this?

Ah .. you really guided me to the right way.
It was really MAMP that was a curpit

I have found the config_vars.mk here: http://forum.mamp.info/viewtopic.php?t=1866 Then I copied that, to a new file, save as config_vars.mk in /Applications/MAMP/Library/build/
(I had to strip the ending space from each lines, or else it will be error)
And then it found my apache :D

Thanks guy! I have attached the file in case anybody has the same problem.

It seems that wasn't the end. Here's a follow-up with more information: http://groups.google.com/group/phusion-passenger/t/e6dac9d5ea0de9c1
