I''m using a cluster of mongrels behind an apache 1.3 proxy pass. I''ve been passing the request to pen, which in turn balances the cluster of mongrels. Now, I''d like to be able to use a different server to send the static files created by the rails application, so I tried to replace pen with nginx. Everything seems to work fine except the environment variable REMOTE_ADDR.

I''ve run into an issue with my rails application being unable to properly set cookies on Mongrel 0.3.18. If I run the simplified code below in Mongrel 3.14.4, both cookies are properly sent to and saved by the browser. With the same code in 0.3.18, only the auth_token cookie is created (if I switch them, only the userid as it will only properly create the first cookie in the list.)

I am considering upgrading to either Mongrel 1.1.1 or 1.0.4, and Mongrel-cluster to 1.0.5. Are there any gotchas or issues I need to be aware of? Also where can I find the release notes for the various releases? (The ones I found seem very sparse). Thanks, Brian -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed... URL:

I just ran into an issue with a new mongrel install on Win32. When trying to run mongrel from RadRails 0.7.2 on win32, I got an error while loading that it couldn''t locate mongrel_service. C:/ruby/lib/ruby/site_ruby/1.8/rubygems/custom_require.rb:27:in `gem_original_require'': no such file to load -- C:/ruby/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/mongrel_service-0.3.1/lib/mongrel_service/init.rb

While I could figure this out, I''m asking here first to see if anyone has already dealt with/created this. I''m running a mongrel cluster, running 4 mongrels on ports 8001-4. I''m using capistrano to deploy. And I''d like to use monit to check to make sure everything is running nice. I''d like to have monit restart only single mongrels if they fail, and

hey all, I have an app working great with apache2 and mongrel_cluster. However, I''m trying to run another application and now when I go to app1.comit falls to app2.com and the opposite. That''s probably because I messed up somewhere with the cluster. this is the content of my conf.d/app1.proxy_cluster.conf: <Proxy balancer://mongrel_cluster> BalancerMember

I''m setting up a new server in anticipation of switching from lighttpd+fcgi. My application isn''t completely imported yet, so I don''t expect it to work. For instance right now when pulling up my app from localhost I get my Ruby/Rails MySQL error message. But when I pull it up from a remote computer I get a proxy error from Apache: ====================== Proxy Error

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Hey, I''ve been using Mongrel for quite some time now but I ran into an issue that threw me back to lighttpd + fastcgi. The application in question was running fine in the production environment with SQLSessionStore and using a mongrel cluster behind a load balancer. However, by switching to a MemcacheSessionStore (using either

Time for some all time pimpage folks. Me and Matt Pelletier wrote a small PDF book on Mongrel entitled: "Mongrel: Serving, Deploying, and Extending Your Ruby Applications" since we really wanted you to know what it was about. It''s published by Addison Wesley Professional, has just over 100 pages of goodness, and is available for $14.99 at: http://safari.oreilly.com/0321483502

Hello Zed, I was just wondering if there were any roadmap/changes coming for Mongrel in the future. Are there any plans to put the attachment parsing code back in, or just anything else to be on the lookout for? Honestly everything''s been working fine for me, so I shouldn''t care, but I''m one of those guys who loves new toys every few months. Thanks for making my job

Hello! Today I''m announcing a "soft but official" release of Mongrel 0.3.13.4 for the Unix fans in the crowd. It''s been running stable for quite some time now for many people, and should be great for nearly everyone. You can read the announce at: http://mongrel.rubyforge.org/ This release includes new versions of mongrel_upload_progress and mongrel_cluster.

Hello all, So, I''ve been using monit with mongrel for a while now, since the 0.3.x days (I think it was). It used to work fine, but now I seem to be having some trouble. I''m currently using mongrel 1.0.1 and I am using the same monit configuration I''ve always been using, yet everytime monit should restart mongrel, I get "Execution failed". For the start

Hello All, I''m putting out a quick half-release because there''s some work on the MIME types I''ve included that needs to be done by all of you. Read at the end to understand your role in what you started. This release features two major capitulations on Mongrel''s stance of not being a full web server. The first is Mongrel now sports a YAML file with 739 MIME

I''m trying to set up several different Rails apps on the same domain, each one running Mongrel. After reading all of the documentation, it''s fairly clear how to use subdomains - create several Apache virtual hosts, each of which has a different ProxyPass and ProxyPassReverse command to redirect from different ports (ie, 3000, 3100), and then have each Mongrel instance (or

Hi all, My environment is ruby-1.8.4, rails 1.2.2, mongrel 1.0.1, linux 2.6. Now, i have a problem on memory leaks with mongrel. My site is running 5 mongrel processes on a 2G RAM machine, the memory of each process grows from about 20M to about 250M, but it never recover to the initial 20M, so i had to restart the mongrel processes once per day. The load is about 1M hits per day. Waiting for

I know that Zed has made mention of the fact that using RMagick with mongrel and rails is a bad thing. I''m currently using FlexImage (which in turn uses RMagick) on my application and really haven''t had too many problems. We get a restart for memory usage every 8-10 hours on one mongrel of twelve running, but I''m not sure if that''s an RMagick issue. Either way,

Greetings - I dug around a bit and I couldn''t find a definitive answer to this question, apologies if it''s been covered before. A box running a apache 2.2 -> mongrel cluster for a rails app got power cycled at my ISP. Unfortunately monit couldn''t start the mongrel processes because the pid files were still there. Here is my monit config (for each mongrel

Hi, My department has a SAN and I''m wondering if it is safe to have all of my mongrel''s share log files stored on the SAN. More specifically, we have 4 machines, each running a couple of mongrel processes. Right now each machine has its own set of log files for mongrel. However, I am thinking that it might be better to put the log files on the SAN and let all the mongrels

Hi all, Tried out the mongrel upload progress plugin with Drb and it works great on my OSX development box, but when putting it into production (Ubuntu Dapper), uploads complete but the app isn''t returning any values for upload progress, and uploads are not showing up in the queue when running upload_client.rb. Before anyone asks, yes, I''m running both the mongrel instances and

Hi, I have mongrel 0.3.14, with ruby 1.8.5, rails 1.1.6 and mongrel cluster 0.2.1, on debian sage 3.1 with apache 2.0, and fastthread 0.6.1. I am load balancing 3 mongrel processes using the random port trick. When I start mongrel the processes have about 60MB, but after some hour of usage the memory ballons upto more than 180MB and the site becomes terribly slow. Forcing me to restart mongrel
