similar to: Upload progress - plugin or core and: does it work in lighttpd?

Hi, I''m currently running my rails app on lighttpd. I want to have an upload progress bar for uploading large files. But I have read that lighttpd has removed that functionallity right now. Should I switch over to apache 2.0 if I want this feature? Is there another way around it? Also, I tried installing Apache 2.0 on my mac with fastcgi, but once I tried to start the server, I get

I''m trying to implement the upload progress bar with lighttpd 1.4.11, and i''m seeing various posts (linked below) indicating that lighty doesn''t support it. sounds like they''re working on it, though. anyone have any idea what the current status of this is? or if there''s a workaround in the meanwhile? those posts:

Hi guys, I had mongrel_upload_progress working very sweetly on my dev machine, where mongrel was acting directly as the webserver. But when I went to production it stopped working. The Problem: On our production server we use Lighttpd, and it looks like lighty is buffering the whole upload and then giving it to Mongrel in a big chunk. This pretty much screws up the whole point of

Last time I checked, the upload progress module (http://api.rubyonrails.com/classes/ActionController/UploadProgress.html) was not working under Lighttpd. Anyone know if that that has changed or when it will change? -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.

I''ve been trying to add a basic file upload feature (just based on the Rails Recipes example), but I find that it only works with the webrick server and not my lighttpd 1.4.11 server. I''m running Rails 1.1.2 on OSX. The upload silently fails with both firefox and Safari, even with the useragent hack and with any size of file/image. My lighttpd config is pretty standard as

Hi, as i''m aware that there are not too many out there still using dispatch.fcgi && lighttpd (rather moving to mongrels && nginx ) , i''ll try to make this simple: how do i limit a file upload size in lighttpd? am i supposed to do this via the app? i''ve racked the internet for a while now, and my mind is heavy and stumped. i''m running

I am having trouble uploading files through a form when using Apache (production) or Lighttpd (development). The odd thing is that when I force script/server to load Webrick, the upload works just fine on the same code-base. When it fails, the upload just sits there forever. Some browsers eventually return an error code, others spin for a long time... Anyway, it never recovers. The file is a

Hello all, I use lighttpd 1.4.8 and I have a problem with image uploads. I tried file_upload plugin, but it is strangely working sometimes and refuse to work sometimes. Function in the controller is (@user is loaded in before_filter) def update_watermark @user.watermark = params[:user][:watermark] @user.save redirect_to :action => "index" end Model is

Hello All, I''ve run into a snag. (I apologize in advance. I''m not very good at system administration.) I''m building an app that allows users to upload files. Up until now I have been storing the files on the file system, but tonight I decided to change the app so the files are stored in the database as a longblob. I thought everything was working great, until I

I''m working on new methods of doing Ajax calls through streaming responses. I''ve created a little javascript library (which depends on prototype.js) that can interpret a stream of JSON objects separated by semicolons. As an application of this, this Mongrel plug-in streams upload status when given a qualified upload_id. It looks like this:

Hi I thought it was time to test my app out on a real server. So i have installed lighttpd following the instruction on the rails wiki. everything seems to work fine except the file upload page. It doesn''t throw any errors, it just doesn''t seem to write the image to disk. Nothing is printed to the lighttpd error log when the file upload fails. I thought it might be my code

I''m trying to understand how the lighttpd/fcgi/rails process works. It seems like there are two ways to start lighttpd for: 1. script/server (only starts lighttpd if you have lighttpd in your $PATH, otherwise starts webrick) 2. lighttpd -f /path/to/lighttpd.conf It seems like #1 is for development and #2 is for production, but I don''t actually know what the difference

Hi guys, Im doing fileuploads and it works great with webrick...I just installed lighttpd 1.4.7 and ran ruby script/server suecessfully picking up my lighty and fcgi install... however...when I try to upload a file the proces either stalls (no evidence of the hit in any logs) or returns 503.... any suggestions?? thanks in advance...

Hi guys, I''m here again with a problem. I have a rails app called brewed. It''s located /home/user/brewed. My lighttpd.conf is located at /home/user/lighty. When I execute lighty on port 80 with: /usr/local/sbin/lighttpd -f /home/user/lighty/lighttpd.conf rails seems to work fine. If I type www.mysite.com/main/index on my browser, the page comes out well. I have my files
