similar to: Mongrel 0.3.5 -- Rails/CGI Actually Works

Everyone who uses win32 should send Wilson a thank-you since without him you''d be a victim of my laziness for at least a few more weeks. People who are testing and trying Mongrel out should

Hello, Just for further reference in case of someone else want to do the same : I wanted to write a mongrel for a CGI app : [[[ require ''cgi'' require ''foo'' cgi = CGI.new if !cgi[''uri''] || (cgi[''uri''] == '''') Foo.error "URI argument is required" end uri = cgi[''uri''] user =

I''ve got a couple apps that I use (billing app, support ticket app, some other custom apps) that I want to integrate into one site. They will all use the same layout for the most part, and will link between each other. When I initially thought of doing this, I figured if I put the apps at different roots - /billing /support etc - then the links wouldn''t work at all, because

How are you guys handling threads or server processes that have to, for example, process the data in your application on a periodic basis? Cron jobs can do it and then run on the database. But, are there ways to launch threads within the rails application itself. I have heard of WebBrick ways, but I am working with lighttpd, fastcgi? (textdrive if you are really interested).

Hello all. I''m a seasoned system administrator and have no fear of building source packages on a variety of platforms, but RMagick has, until recently, evaded all of my attempts to building it on my PowerBook. Someone else just mentioned that they had trouble with RMagick on OS X (Intel, don''t really know if my advice will help) so I decided to post a HOWTO to the list. I

Can anybody share some examples of their Money implementation ? I''m trying to setup a Model to use this library, but can''t seem to wrap my head around how it is exactly supposed to work. My Model (Foo) looks like: =============== composed_of :commission, :class_name => "Money", :mapping => [ %w(commission_cents cents), %w(commission_currency currency) ] Yet, in

I have an action which requests another URL from the same site (for testing purposes), but it keeps timing out. If I use an off-site URL, the action works fine. I also notice that I''m only able to request one page at a time from my server - the rest just spin until the previous requests complete. Is this some setting in Lighty, Mongrel, or my browser (Firefox - I played around with

I know that Mongrel is a web server that hosts rails applications. But i don''t understand what part Lighttpd (or Apache) has in the setup. I know that you can use Mongrel on its own. What does Lighttpd improve on? Thanks, Chris -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.

I read in various places that although migrations aren''t transactional, all you need to do is wrap you migration method in "ActiveRecord:: Base.connection.transaction do" to make the self.up or self.down transactional. In my experience (Rails + PostgreSQL), this doesn''t work very well. If my migration hits an exception, any tables that were touched remain modified.
