mongrel unicorn - Feb 2010 - Rails 3 "RAILS_ENV not defined by config/boot" error

I''m running unicorn and unicorn-rails 0.96.1 and the latest Rails 3
beta gem. ?Firing up unicorn_rails spews "RAILS_ENV not defined by
config/boot". ?I know this is likely a result of RAILS_ROOT being
deprecated?in Rails 3 but I can''t seem to config my way around it.
I''m sure other people must have run into this before. ?Is there a
quick fix?

Thanks

Hi John,

I haven''t had a chance to look at Rails 3 yet, but you can probably try
just using a plain config.ru with "unicorn" (not
"unicorn_rails")

------------------- config.ru ------------------
ENV["RAILS_ENV"] ||= ENV["RACK_ENV"]
require "config/environment"
use Rails::Rack::Static
run ActionController::Dispatcher.new
------------------------------------------------

Let us know how it goes, thanks!

Hey guys,

actually I was running my new blog on rails3 and unicorn. I wanted to post about
it here but didn''t have the time yet. Indeed you just need unicorn -
not unicorn rails. It seems to run all really well - I just need to modify my rc
script a bit.

Kind regards, John

I''ve been planning on some large-ish changes in Unicorn 0.97.x to
bin/{unicorn,unicorn_rails} to make maintenance easier and fix
a few minor issues with the existing code.

Would the following change be enough to work with Rails 3
out-of-the-box?

diff --git a/bin/unicorn_rails b/bin/unicorn_rails
index b1458fc..4441c34 100755
--- a/bin/unicorn_rails
+++ b/bin/unicorn_rails
@@ -128,8 +128,6 @@ app = lambda do ||
   rescue LoadError => err
     abort "#$0 must be run inside RAILS_ROOT: #{err.inspect}"
   end
-  defined?(::RAILS_ROOT) or abort "RAILS_ROOT not defined by
config/boot"
-  defined?(::RAILS_ENV) or abort "RAILS_ENV not defined by
config/boot"
   defined?(::Rails::VERSION::STRING) or
     abort "Rails::VERSION::STRING not defined by config/boot"
 

(I''ll remember to test when I fix a few other things elsewhere)
