I''ve been struggling through getting Rails to work with Apache2 &
FastCGI. I used the RubyForApache distribution of mod_fastcgi, the
latest stable Apache2, Windows XP. On the advice of a recent thread
here, my httpd.conf fastcgi section looks like so:
LoadModule fastcgi_module modules/mod_fastcgi.so
<IfModule>
AddHandler fastcgi-script .fcgi
FastCGIConfig -idle-timeout 600 -maxClassProcesses 5
</IfModule>
(More config file entries at the end of this message).
[Fri Mar 18 07:55:48 2005] [error] [client 192.168.2.4] FastCGI:
incomplete headers (0 bytes) received from server
"C:/amalec/ruby/rails/message/public/dispatch.fcgi"
Oddly, looking at development.log, the controller saw the request, and
claimed to have sent a response, so something is happening between
Rails, FastCGI and Apache2 on the response.
Everything works fine locally on the box, and works semi-OK (some
actions work, some don''t) on my work network, but doesn''t work
at all
in the home network.
Any advice greatly appreciated!
Thanks,
Arien
================My httpd.conf virtual directory section looks thus:
<VirtualHost *>
ServerName msg
DocumentRoot C:/amalec/ruby/rails/message/public
ErrorLog C:/amalec/ruby/rails/message/log/apache.log
<Directory C:/amalec/ruby/rails/message/public/>
Options ExecCGI FollowSymLinks
AddHandler fcgi-script .fcgi
AllowOverride all
Allow from all
Order allow,deny
</Directory>
</VirtualHost>
& my .htaccess is
# General Apache options
AddHandler fastcgi-script .fcgi
AddHandler cgi-script .cgi
Options +FollowSymLinks +ExecCGI
# Redirect all requests not available on the filesystem to Rails
RewriteEngine On
RewriteRule ^$ index.html [QSA]
RewriteRule ^([^.]+)$ $1.html [QSA]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ /dispatch.fcgi?$1 [QSA,L]
# In case Rails experiences terminal errors
ErrorDocument 500 /500.html

I tried again with WEBRick, and got: [2005-03-18 21:22:11] ERROR Errno::EINVAL: Invalid argument c:/ruby/lib/ruby/1.8/webrick/httpresponse.rb:324:in `write'' c:/ruby/lib/ruby/1.8/webrick/httpresponse.rb:324:in `<<'' c:/ruby/lib/ruby/1.8/webrick/httpresponse.rb:324:in `_write_data'' c:/ruby/lib/ruby/1.8/webrick/httpresponse.rb:317:in `_send_file'' c:/ruby/lib/ruby/1.8/webrick/httpresponse.rb:272:in `send_body_io'' c:/ruby/lib/ruby/1.8/webrick/httpresponse.rb:186:in `send_body'' c:/ruby/lib/ruby/1.8/webrick/httpresponse.rb:104:in `send_response'' c:/ruby/lib/ruby/1.8/webrick/httpserver.rb:79:in `run'' c:/ruby/lib/ruby/1.8/webrick/server.rb:155:in `start_thread'' c:/ruby/lib/ruby/1.8/webrick/server.rb:144:in `start'' c:/ruby/lib/ruby/1.8/webrick/server.rb:144:in `start_thread'' c:/ruby/lib/ruby/1.8/webrick/server.rb:94:in `start'' c:/ruby/lib/ruby/1.8/webrick/server.rb:89:in `each'' c:/ruby/lib/ruby/1.8/webrick/server.rb:89:in `start'' c:/ruby/lib/ruby/1.8/webrick/server.rb:79:in `start'' c:/ruby/lib/ruby/1.8/webrick/server.rb:79:in `start'' c:/ruby/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/rails-0.10.1/lib/webrick_server.rb:21:in `dispatch'' script/server:48 192.168.2.4 - - [18/Mar/2005:21:22:11 Pacific Standard Time] "GET / HTTP/1.1" 200 0 - -> / At this point, I''m pretty lost.
