I have a rails application running under the latest version of Mogrel Win32. Seems to run just fine. However, when I attempt to run it under the Win32 Mongrel service, it appears to hand after hitting certain controller actions. I''m sure there is a bug in my code that''s causing this - but I just am not sure what it is yet. Is there anything about the mongrel-service that would cause an application to behave differently? Besides the -B option to turn on debugging, are there any other tricks for me to get visibility to what is going on underneath the covers? If I can''t track down this issue, is there any to using mongrel_rails from a scheduler instead of the service?

I''ll be cooking up a new gem for him soon and hopefully working with him to get all his stuff "gemified". Until then, can you look for exception reports in your logs and send them to me (off-list).

The only hammer I have to hit this screen is permission problems, so we edited the service "Properties -> Log On -> Log on as: " property to be a different, slightly more powerful, but not too powerful, account. This may only help you if your app is accessing files and other windows resources. Sorry to not be more specific, we''re not exactly sure whats aggravating using the default service settings either. You''re question was a good one. The win32 support is much appreciated, thanks a lot Luis Lavena! Dave
