[Rails] Controller Methods gets called twice on single invocation
I have no idea why this is happening but it seems like every method on my controller gets called twice. Here is what it looks like when I call a list using the scaffold code ========================= Processing DepartmentsController#index (for 127.0.0.1 at 2006-02-24 01:05:00) [GET] Parameters: {"action"=>"index", "controller"=>"departments"} [4;36;1mDepartment Count (0.000000) [0;1mSELECT COUNT(*) FROM departments [4;35;1mDepartment Load (0.010000) SELECT * FROM departments LIMIT 0, 10 Rendering layoutfalseactionlist within layouts/StandardLayout Rendering departments/list [4;36;1mDepartment Columns (0.030000) [0;1mSHOW FIELDS FROM departments Completed in 0.22100 (4 reqs/sec) | Rendering: 0.10000 (45%) | DB: 0.04000 (18%) | 200 OK [http://localhost/departments/] Processing DepartmentsController#index (for 127.0.0.1 at 2006-02-24 01:05:01) [GET] Parameters: {"action"=>"index", "controller"=>"departments"} [4;35;1mDepartment Count (0.000000) SELECT COUNT(*) FROM departments [4;36;1mDepartment Load (0.000000) [0;1mSELECT * FROM departments LIMIT 0, 10 Rendering layoutfalseactionlist within layouts/StandardLayout Rendering departments/list [4;35;1mDepartment Columns (0.020000) SHOW FIELDS FROM departments Completed in 0.06000 (16 reqs/sec) | Rendering: 0.03000 (50%) | DB: 0.02000 (33%) | 200 OK [http://localhost/departments/] =============================== I dont know why this is happening.

Hey guys, I started a new job recently in a mobile R&D dept for a large company. Our team is small and has some autonomy. My boss has given me the go-ahead to write a couple of apps that are coming down the pipe using Rails. - With one proviso: Any apps we write have to run in our dept''s environment. - IIS. I know it''s possible to run RoR on IIS using ISAPI filters and fastCGI. So here are my Q''s: 1. Has anyone done any benchmarks with it? Is there any reason this couldn''t be viable for production loads? (feel free to speculate if you haven''t) 2. Are there any practical suggestions for laying out an application (one web site) that is both asp.net and RoR for the regex isapi filters? (sub-domain them, different paths etc) I really appreciate any help you guys can offer, I''m dreading the thought of 40 hrs a week of red tape and static typing. Cheers, Simon.
I had a single Rails app running on ISAPI with IIS at one point. It is a royal pain to configure though... and it doesn''t run multiple Rails applications very well because you have to basically create a new DNS alias for each application if I remember correctly. What I did was put a 2nd NIC in my IIS server and bound port 80 on the 2nd NIC to Apache and a different DNS alias. That way I could utilize existing an existing Windows server already running IIS. My RoR on Apache/FastCGI on Windows 2003 now hosts several RoR apps for our company. The company I work for is a big company with 6000+ employees. I got some pain from some of my co-workers and management about introducing a new development environment we would have to support. However now that I have written some incredible RoR apps in a fraction of the time it would take to write the same application in ASP.NET I have now converted management into Ruby on Rails fans. They know that the _best_ developers in the company prefer RoR to inferior development environments :) The bottom line is yes, IIS + ISAPI + FastCGI works. But it is ugly as sin, hard to configure, and a performance hog. Maybe toss out the idea of running Apache or Lighttpd on port 80 on a 2nd NIC and see if you can get a chance to try it. Just watch out for 2003 server grabbing port 80 on the 2nd NIC away from Apache. There is something you have to do to stop it from grabbing port 80 on the 2nd NIC. Charles Simon C.

That sounds like a pretty good idea, for now I might run apache/FastCGI on a different port and later on a new NIC. And once this "crazy ruby" stuff proves itself get a couple of *nix boxes.

The solution that I am working on right now is to have a VMWare GSX server hosting a properly configured linux server on a win2k3 box. Of course even here I have run into an issue by choosing ubuntu server ;-(. It seems that I am stuck with ruby 1.8.3...

And I think some mentioned this earlier, it does not perform that well. I am writing a scgi solution but it is not finished yet (uploads does not works). Setup is much, much better on windows / IIS and it will work in subdirectories. If you have .NET experience you can probably get session sharing or single signon working. I would be happy to share this with you, but I''m really not sure about performance. I think on Windows scalability of scgi is limited compared to the fcgi solution. You can have several fcgi processes running, but you can not have multiple scgi processes running on windows. (Zed, if you are reading this, am I correct and if so, is this something you are still investigating?). By default I think the scgi solution is faster. For now - in production environments - I guess on windows the best solutions are using Apache and fcgi. If you do not want this as your ''outbound'' server use a reverse proxy in IIS (You could give isapirewriter a go for this). You could also give Mongrel a go, and eventually set it up using a reverse proxy. I have not tried Mongrel yet, so I''m not sure about performace of this webserver. Thing with the reverse proxies is that unless you write a proxy yourself there are not that many (none?) single signon solutions. /Boris http://rubyforiis.sosukodo.org/
