How to start rails server in production mode using unicorn and config file?

ruby-on-rails unicorn

I add Gem 'unicorn' to Gemfile and call rails server unicorn -e production, but I get a load error. Then I add Gem 'unicorn_rails', then call rails server unicorn -e production, but I can't find the socket file. So I am considering if it doesn't use the config/unicorn.rb file as the configuration? So I call unicorn_rails -c config/unicorn.rb -E production -D, but I get another error text file busy.

So now I am stuck in this matter, could you help me? :)

It should be something looks like:

bundle exec unicorn -E production -c config/unicorn.rb

and you should only need unicorn gem
