I was using lighty+fastcgi before, and it was working pretty well, but I decided to move to Apache+mongrel because I really really like Mongrel. Well now I found out about lighty+pound+mongrel [1] and I think I''m going to give that a shot. I definitely prefer lighty to Apache - it''s pretty ridiculous how much fewer resources it uses. Anyway the only thing I''m going to

Hi, While learning Ruby and Rails, I decided I just as well learn Linux along the way... It''s been fun, but I''m stuck at one of those exasperating moments... I hope someone can help me :) I installed Ruby 1.8.4 on Fedora Core 4, then Rails, then lighty, and then SCGI. I used yum to install lighty... and it already comes with mod_scgi. I created my first application in

Hi, I have installed lighttpd1.4.10 on my debian server. The installation goes well and rails 1.0 do recognize lighty when I run script: ruby script\server. However, after the first request to lighty, lighty returned the right page, then shut itself down:( Did anybody had similar experience? Thanks! -Tony -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.

I just got a new Debian Sarge server and followed the brainspl.at "Debian Lighttpd Rails Stack" tutorial. The only place I deviated was the version of Lighty. The page uses 1.4.7 and I spotted that 1.4.10 was available. I installed that and couldn''t get anywhere. Lighty died on first access from the test rails app, and even from a ultra basic static config. No log,

Hello all. Time for an all night installation campfire (no pun intended) story. I just helped a customer migrate from a single box to a 5 box system. 2 Lighty 2 FCGI 1 DB Everything went quite well. I scripted everything so it would be easy to add more boxes in the future. 3 scripts, one for each box type above. Then came time to get the site working. :-) Lighty came up easily. The DB came up

I started what I thought was going to be a 30 minute project on the train this morning to write a little timetracker for myself. Amongst other things (don''t have a model called Task as it conflicts with Rake at the moment, don''t have a model called Action as it disappears in the hash when you submit a form :-), I had to use Webrick as Lighty complained about an unknown

I need to graft some rails apps onto a website running apache 1.3 and I must be missing something very obvious because I cannot get things working properly. Here is what I need: 1) The server must be running apache 1.3. A very large body of PHP content is currently vended by the server through 5 vhosts and I have neither the time nor resources to replace apache1 with apache2 or lighttpd. Maybe

map.connect '':controller/:action/:id'', :requirements => { :id => /^(.html)/ } The requirement is turning all of my routes into /foo?id=54354 instead of /foo/54354 Why? -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.

I''ve got switchtower set up, and it seems to work fine except for one problem: It doesn''t successfully restart lighttpd. I have the following task in my deploy.rb file: desc "Restart the web server" task :restart, :roles => :app do sudo "/usr/local/etc/rc.d/lighttpd.sh restart" end This is on a FreeBSD system, so it''s using the rc script to

Hello all, I''m using Lighty-Win32 and Mongrel. I have one rails app working against http://hostname/. I want to know how to route lighty and my app to http://hostname/appname1. I have multiple apps that I would eventually want to route with http://hostname/appname2, http://hostname/appname3, etc. I am not trying to "productize", these are separate distinct apps that

I''ve been banging my head against the following for about 8 hours now, and have exhausted my web research options: /usr/home/matthew.feadler/rails/avclfc/public/dispatch.fcgi:21:in `require'': no such file to load -- /usr/home/matthew.feadler/rails/avclfc/public/../config/environment (LoadError) from /usr/home/matthew.feadler/rails/avclfc/public/dispatch.fcgi:21

Hi guys, I''ve been chasing a problem in my web-stack: Lighttpd -> Mongrel -> Rails, and found a problem with the interaction of Lighttpd and Mongrel. If a request takes more than 5 seconds, Lighty will retry it - and then the requests / responses get mixed up in Lighty and it returns a bad response to the client. Not good. I''m convinced that the problem is

Hello everyone, I?ve been working with Ruby on Rails for about 2 months now and have really enjoyed the ease of use of it. I?m only been doing development on it so I?ve been using WeBrick. Recently, I have built a server running Debian Linux, with ruby 1.8.2, rails 1.0.0, lighty 1.4.3, and Mysql 5.0.18. I used WeBrick to generate a lighttpd.conf file for me, I changed the paths in the

I apologize in advance if this is the wrong forum for this report/request, and for the fact that I have not read the code for ftable.formula in any detail. >From reading the documentation for ftable.formula, I expected that the following two calls to ftable would produce the same results: data(UCBAdmissions) ftable(UCBAdmissions, row.vars = "Dept", col.vars = c("Gender",

Hey all First off, ive just switched to using mongrel_cluster and pound - its working a treat! Its far far faster than fast-cgi: operations that took a few seconds on fcgi now are almost instant with mongrel. Excellent! However, I''ve been trying to decide how best to utilise my equipment most effectively. I have a dual pro 3Ghz Xenon with 2GB RAM, and the server will be running a few

Hello, I am developing an application using Rails and doing l10n with ruby-gettext. When I deploy the app on lighttpd, every rjs template is rendered with Content-type: text/html; charset: UTF-8. I believe it comes from 85th line of rails.rb script in ruby-gettext lib. RJS templates are not executed in this situation. Hovewer, when I run the app with Webrick, rjs templates are rendered with:

Is anyone using the setup described at the Rails blog? http://weblog.rubyonrails.org/2006/7/3/pound-makes-lighty-and-mongrel- play-nice I''m using it in production, and the only problem I have is the same as people have described in the comments over there, namely that Rails thinks all requests come from localhost. See http://isabont.com/requestinfo for the headers. Any

On httpd I use ProxyPass and ProxyPassReverse to forward requests to webrick and mongrel. How can I do this same thing using Lighty and Mongrel? Thanks, Joe -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.

On my host I run my lighttpd instance bound to a specific port and my hostname is mapped to this port (I''m not exactly sure how this is accomplished, but it is lighttpd also listening on port 80 which handles this for me I believe). A redirect from rails includes my local port number in the request, so that it shows up in the address bar. I prefer people not to see this - I
