I have installed mongrel and mongrel_cluster fine and have them running great with my app. I tried using the init.d script provided with mongrel_cluster 2.1 to start it up on boot but it doesn''t. mongrel_cluster_ctl works fine for me by hand and so does /etc/init.d./mongrel_cluster start. I am on Debian so I installed the service links with sudo update-rc.d mongrel_cluster defaults. And yes I chmod''ed it. I checked and double checked /etc/mongrel_cluster and my yml file and everything I can think of. Finally out of frustration I hand linked the system boot stuff like this: sudo ln -s /etc/init.d/mongrel_cluster /etc/rc0.d/S84mongrel_cluster sudo ln -s /etc/init.d/mongrel_cluster /etc/rc3.d/S84mongrel_cluster sudo ln -s /etc/init.d/mongrel_cluster /etc/rc6.d/S84mongrel_cluster And still no luck. Again if I start em up by hand everything works like it should. Thanks for the help, Kyle

Make sure the paths needed are available at boot. I had a similar problem on FreeBSD and was helped out by Andrew Bennett. Here''s what he had to say: Hey Jamie, Yeah, I found that out after using my own script for a while. It is caused by the way mongrel_cluster starts each of the mongrel servers. It actually calls the command line "mongrel_rails start ..." on each of the specified directories. However, when FreeBSD starts up, the PATH hasn''t been set correctly yet, so calling "mongrel_rails" results in a "not found" error because "/usr/local/bin" hasn''t been added to the PATH yet. I just cheated and added the following to /usr/local/etc/rc.d/ mongrel_cluster ... stop_cmd="stop_cmd" status_cmd="status_cmd" PATH=/sbin:/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin:/usr/games:/usr/local/sbin:/usr/ local/bin:/usr/X11R6/bin restart_cmd() { ... I added the surrounding lines so you can tell where I''m talking about. I''m not sure if there is a better way to do this, but it works for now.

Sorry about the double post. Thanks. That fixed the problem.
