Hi,
I''m running RoR and have set it up more or less like described in the
wiki (for instance here
http://wiki.rubyonrails.org/rails/pages/LighttpdWithProcessScripts).
I can start the fcgi listener and see that ports 7000-7004 are
listening. I can start lighttpd, and try to connect to the server. I
can restart the default.fcgi listening scripts that i see in "ps ax |
grep fcgi". It serves the index page fine, but when I go to my generated
controller (http://localhost/foo/hello), empty response. No error
message, no default controller text (Foo#hello, etc.). Nothing.
Nothing in the lighttpd logs or the rails app logs to indicate what''s
happening.
Just nothing.
Any help at all appreciated!
Oh, one more thing, might be unimportant:
irb(main):001:0> RailsFCGIHandler.process!
NameError: uninitialized constant RailsFCGIHandler
from (irb):1
Regards,
Jim
Setup:
RoR 1.0, Linux, lighttpd 1.4.9, gem fcgi (0.8.6.1).
dispatch.fcgi looks like:
#!/usr/bin/ruby
require File.dirname(__FILE__) + "/../config/environment"
require ''fcgi_handler''
RailsFCGIHandler.process!
Jim- Try to delete all of your /tmp/ruby-sess* files and restart lighty. That usually does the trick when you get the BSORD(blank screen of rails death) ;-0 Also sometimes its a database connection thing. Or it has happened to me a few times of i was requiring a file in environment.rb that wasn''t there or the path was wrong. It is my strong opinion that instead of throwing up a BSORD rails should have kittens all over the log files and stderr. It reallt sucks to get a blank screen and *no* log messages anywhere. I am not sure why this happens though so I''m sure its a hard problem to solve.

Interesting.> It is my strong opinion that instead of throwing up a BSORD rails > should have kittens all over the log files and stderr.

There should be a more verbose debugging mode at least, but maybe there is one and I haven''t seen it.
