Is anybody getting acceptable performance with a Rails application on Dreamhost? By this, I mean response times no greater than 3 seconds, and no large numbers of FCGI processes that you have to kill manually. If so, how? I''ve ended up running a constant ping script (once every ten minutes), and still have to kill some number of excess dispatch.fcgi processes every day. Along with

There''s got to be a simple answer to this... def logout reset_session flash[:notice] = "Logged out" redirect_to :action => ''index'' end The flash never shows up, and doesn''t seem to be in the new session. --Al Evans -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.

I''ve got a mailer that works -- about every other time. Authentication fails the other half of the time. There doesn''t seem to be any particular pattern to it -- work once, fail once, work three times, fail twice, .... For example, here''s one attempt from my development.log: Sent mail: Date: Sun, 2 Jul 2006 18:50:57 -0500 From: someone <someone@something.org>

My users need to login to run the app I''m building. I''d like to give them an "Other users currently active:" piece of information. I could track it myself in the database based on login/logout, but that doesn''t really count for people just leaving the computer logged in and never coming back. Does Rails have an API for me to monitor sessions and take a

Hi, i''m striving to capistranize a foo app on DH. Everything is hosted on DH to simplify a bit : - svn repository (http access) - the application - the DB I used the recipe of Jamis Buck modified by Geoffrey Grosenbach which you can find here : http://nubyonrails.com/pages/shovel_dreamhost I did the least modifications possible. As recommended. 1) When I launch the

Hi, I have one minor issue. I''m trying to check whether a directory is empty given some path to the directory. My code does the following: if(File.directory?(dirpath)) # dirpath = public/images/1 if(File.zero?(dirpath)) FileUtils.rm_rf(dirpath) end end The problem is, while testing this, if I put a file in the directory and run the above code, it still ends up deleting the

Hello, Just started to use Capistrano for deployment and everything works beautifully and as advertised. Thanks Jamis for this great piece of software. However, in my case, the deploy task takes quite some time since my SVN repository resides on a different continent than my app/db server and I''ve frozen all the rails code in the vendor dir and checked in. All in all my app sums up to

How do I do the following: if a user is logged in, then opens another browser tab and logs in again (either as himself or as someone else), I want to invalidate the session in the first tab and throw up a "logged in from another browser window" screen. RIght now, user1''s session silently becomes a duplicate user2 session instead (from what I understand, sessions are bound to

Hi, I''m deploying to a prod linux server via Capistrano, but the last step, running the reaper, won''t complete. Ruby is stored in /usr/local/bin on the server, and I''m deploying from winxp. $ ssh mcalogin@lx07 Password: mcalogin@LX07:~> env | grep "^PATH" PATH=/usr/local/bin:/usr/bin:/usr/X11R6/bin:/bin:/usr/games:/opt/gnome/b in:/opt/

I''m trying to setup an app on Dreamhost and running into no end of problems. The app is running with edge rails and I''m currently getting the dreaded ''Rails application failed to start'' white screen when trying to access it. I''ve gone through all the ''gotchas'' and troubleshooting docs at Dreamhost and the rails wiki to no avail.

Hi all! I''m trying to deploy an application out to a subdomain at dreamhost. I am getting the dreaded "Rails application failed to start properly" error. The logs for my app are empty. In the DreamHost FTP app, when I look in the error.log file (I''m guessing this the Apache error log file) I see the following for each of my attempts: [Sun Jul 16 12:36:32 2006]

I''m desperate. A few hours ago I was checking my server because we are running a survey for a new client and everything looked good for that app but I noticed another Rails app was quite large (twice as normal) so I decided it was time for a restart. Big mistake. Upon restart the application gave me a 500 error. Checking the logs I found a stack level too deep error that after hours I

Why is it that "rake stats" doesn''t count lines in views? For example, I just ran find app/views -name "*rhtml" -exec wc -l {} \; in a recent Rails app directory, and got a total count that was about 80% as large as the Total LOC result reported by "rake stats". A fair number of those lines were just as hard to write as anything in my models or

I''ve updated fcgi_watch to version 0.3.1. There''s no real functional difference, but I fixed a bug that caused it to report multiple copies of the same FCGI process as "running" under certain conditions. The updated version is here: http://www.alevans.com/dl/fcgi_watch-0.3.1.tgz For those just tuning in: fcgi_watch is a supplement to (or replacement for)

I have a hacked together version of Radiant with the capability of allowing users to add comments. It''s somewhere between "demo" and "pre-alpha" quality at the moment. I''ll make the code available (as an svn diff against HEAD) in the next few days to anybody who''s interested. Here''s a brain dump of the things I ran into, and my

Maybe nobody else has tried this, but there''s a problem with immediate mode in the current release of OpenID. If you use it, you''ll get the first "complete" response correctly, as OpenID::SETUP_NEEDED, but you''ll get OpenID::FAILURE when you user returns to your site after typing in his password and whatever. The reason is that OpenID''s

I have an action that does a redirect to an external URL, passing a "come back to here" parameter to that URL. When it "comes back to here", I either process a "successful" return, process a "failed" return, or redirect on a "need more information" return. In the last case, I would really like to put the "need more information" URL

In a controller, I''m trying to do def do_some_periodic_thing render :update page << ''var foo = new Ajax.PeriodicalUpdater("someDiv", "/some/path", {asynchronous:true, frequency:1, evalScripts:true} );'' end end In the view, I have <%= link_to_remote "Test Periodical", :url => { :action =>

Can anybody tell me where to submit a bug report/patch for prototype.js? As far as I can tell, lines 760 et seq. should be changed from if ((this.header(''Content-type'') || '''').match(/^text\/javascript/i)) this.evalResponse(); } to if ((this.header(''Content-type'') ||

psitsNOT ("Photoshop it''s NOT!") is an AJAX powered image editor for Rails. Although it doesn''t pretend to be feature-rich, psitsNOT lets you rotate and crop; adjust brightness, contrast, and color balance; then reduce grain, enhance color contrast, sharpen, and set the final size of an image. It does a great job at enhancing digital photos for display on the web.
