So I decided to just go with apache2 and fcgid. I looked into Mongrel and apache and I looked into lighttpd and fastcgi and found both to be too time consuming and not well enough documented for what I''m doing. My question is, how do I set up apache and fcgid to actually work? I got apache installed. I think I got fcgid installed (...

Hi There, Every now and then, and recently more and more we get a "503 server temporarily unavailable" error from our rails app. We are running Rails 1.0 with mod_fcgid in Apache 2.0.54 on Debian The thing is I don''t think we have such a heavy load on the server, and I haven''t seen this error occur at all outside the rails app. In fact I don''t think I ever saw it before we switched to fcgid. Has anybody else experienced anything simila...

I''m having the same problems as this fellow, Mr. Cheetham, in getting my rails app up and running on apache2+fcgid. Webrick runs, but dispatch.fcgi never actually runs, and apache spits out a grusome "Premature end of script headers: dispatch.cgi" error message in the log. Mr. Cheetham describes his problem at http://www.archivesat.com/Typo_blogging_engine/thread164398.htm I can safely say dispatch...

Hi, I just installed mod_fcgid on my apache2 server. When I try to load my application I get an "Application error - Rails application failed ..." message. In my Apache2 error-log it says: Premature end of script headers dispatch.fcgi mod_fcgid process /data/www/app/dispacth.fcgi exit (communication error), terminate...

All, I have run into a road block with my RoR project. The app works fine without SSL but when I try to upload a file with the site running in HTTPS, cgi.rb throws an EOFError: [13/Mar/2006:23:05:48 :: 22982] Dispatcher failed to catch: bad content body (EOFError) /usr/lib/ruby/1.8/cgi.rb:981:in `read_multipart?

I''m having trouble with running my app under fcgid. I am getting errors in my Apache log. It seems that it is choking on the gems replacement for require. The relevant lines from /var/log/apache2/error.log: /usr/local/lib/site_ruby/1.8/rubygems/custom_require.rb:21:in `require__'': no such file to load -- initializer (LoadError) from /usr...

Hello! I want to use the same application in two environments (production and development) on the same server (apache2 with fcgid) in different (aliased) directories. Is there a way to specify RAILS_ENV inside my <Directory> directives? I have the line DefaultInitEnv RAILS_ENV production in my httpd.conf but I want one of the directories to be development. Setting the ENV var directly in environment.rb is not an optio...

Hi, I''m trying to get rails running on Debian stable with Apache 2, mod_fcgid, Rails 1.0. The application works fine with webrick (*).

I am trying to determine (from people''s experience here) if there is a benefit to proxying apache -> lighttpd -> rails instead of just using apache mod_fcgid -> rails. I am having some concerns of the stability of the fcgid apache modules as well as the incredibly painful first connect issue with apache mod_fcgid. Is the lighttpd fcgi more stable and mature than apache ? Is there a performance hit (or gain) to sticking lighttpd in the middle of a...

hi there, I''m running rails on apache2 with mod_fcgid which works, but I''m having trouble with environments adn separate dev & prodution vhosts. I have DefaultInitEnv set in the VirtualHost directive for each (as production | development), which works fine after a server restart for whichever vhost I hit first, but thereafter the RAILS_EN...

Or maybe I crash it and don''t know why. Here is the setup: I have an action that will crash my debian sarge development box using fcgid, fastcgi and scgi running with Apache2, as well as fastcgi running with lighttpd, every time. Here is the action from the controller: ------------------- def crashme @orders = Order.find(:all, :order => "`id` ASC", :offset => 0, :limit => 200) emails_array =...

I was getting some "application failed to start properly" pages, but production.log was not showing anything. Looking closer I''ve noticed that server_error.log (the apache log) was giving lines like: "malformed header from script. Bad header=<html>: dispatch.fcgi, referer:" I was able to determine the cause, and that was that some pages were starting with a space

...#39;'s lots of stuff going on currently with choices of production deployment environments. But I''m not clear on a few things as I need to decide on a production setup where Apache is a given. A recent thread (http://www.ruby-forum.com/topic/56590) seemed to favor Apache 2 with mod_fcgid. And this is supported in articles such as: http://paul.querna.org/journal/articles/2006/01/01/using-mod_fcgid-for-ruby-on-rails-applications And then there''s all the excitement about Mongrel. Question 1. What are the advantages of mongrel over fastcgi? http://mongrel.rubyforge.org/ is...

I developed an application using Rails and the WeBrick, and now I''ve moved it to the production server using apache/fcgid. Now, however, post data is not being populated in the params hash. Even a simple form with one hidden field, which works fine as a GET request, does not work using POST. The problem isn''t with the form, as I''ve posted the data to a simple php script that just dumps the data, a...

...s fairly straightforward to make the config settings dynamic, since we can use request.host to work out which host the user is hitting, and switch style sheets etc. based on that. [note that ENV can''t be used in this fashion since it appears to only pick up enviroment variables set for the fcgid process in general] In principle we could do the same for the database by adjusting database.yml like so: development: adapter: mysql database: <%= request.env[''DEV_DATABASE''] %> host: localhost username: <%= request.env[''DEV_DATABASE_USERNAME''] passwo...

Hi, I am just installing a new test environment, but this is just for preparing the next one, which will be a production server. I am doing a clean Debian Sarge 3.1 install with stable sources. I have to decide if I install Apache 1.x or 2 now. I have read that FastCGI is better supported/developed for Apache 1.x. Is this (still) true? What is easier, more stable, etc? I want to run rails
