similar to: unicorn 0.94.0 - small fixes and new features

Mainly small fixes, improvements, and workarounds for fork() issues with pseudo-random number generators shipped with Ruby (Kernel#rand, OpenSSL::Random (used by SecureRandom and also by Rails). If there are any other fixes/improvements that could be useful let us know. I think this is nearing the end of the line for the 3.x series which will then go into maintenance mode. I''m looking

Unicorn is an HTTP server for Rack applications designed to only serve fast clients on low-latency, high-bandwidth connections and take advantage of features in Unix/Unix-like kernels. Slow clients should only be served by placing a reverse proxy capable of fully buffering both the the request and response in between Unicorn and slow clients. * http://unicorn.bogomips.org/ * mongrel-unicorn at

Hey guys, I''m sending USR2 to unicorn after cap deploy, and the old master is getting replaced by a new master that doesn''t work. Here are some similar threads I found ... http://rubyforge.org/pipermail/mongrel-unicorn/2010-October/000733.html http://rubyforge.org/pipermail/mongrel-unicorn/2010-October/000717.html I''m not using Bundler, and I have working_directory

Hi folks, I''ve experimented a problem while deploying my app, I''ve sent the HUP signal to the master process, I''ve checked everything is ok: new master and workers are spawned and the old ones are killed(I''ve checked the PIDs), but the new code deployed isn''t reflected in the living site, so I''ve to stop and start again unicorn in order to see

This means we no longer waste an extra file descriptor per worker process in the master. Now there''s no need to set a higher file descriptor limit for systems running >= 1024 workers. --- I just pushed this out to git://bogomips.org/unicorn.git and it''ll be in Unicorn 4.x. The subset of raindrops used by Unicorn should work on all machines with mmap(2) +

Hello all, Last week, I finally decided to put into motion some ideas I''ve been kicking around for a year in my head since last year... Basically I don''t want to have to deal with threads or support platforms that rely on or encourage threads. Especially given MRI 1.9 where kernel threads are more difficult to debug than green ones. Given the limited scope of this project,

Hey everyone, Working on an engine for rails that needs specialized behavior with forking and I had a couple questions. 1. What is the best way to determine whether the app is indeed running inside a unicorn server? Most of the attempts I can find to detect check to see if the main modules for Unicorn are defined, but this really only checks to see that Unicorn is present, not that you are

I am using nginx with unicorn as a reverse proxy. Has been fantastic, but needed to look through some code for first time. Using ruby 1.9.3p194 with rails 3.2.9, development mode with ssl enabled, I start unicorn with -d ...and it does not get served up by nginx. Any ideas, or more information needed? Thanks!

Switched my RoR (3.1.3, 1.9.2) app from Thin to Unicorn (4.6.2). It ran fine in development (Mac OSX), but when deploying to production on Heroku, it fails silently (no backtrace, no error detail).

I am having issues when using unicorn with a Capistrano deployment. >From what I have been able to understand Capistrano uses a scheme in wich every release is deployed inside the releases directory under a unique name and if the transaction was successful, creates a symlink named current that will point to that release. So I end up with a deployment directory such as:

Hi all, I''m fighting with the after_fork hook and my sinatra application. The Sinatra app is using active_record, In my unciron.rb file I''m using preload_app true after_fork do |server, worker| ? defined?(ActiveRecord::Base) and ??? ActiveRecord::Base.establish_connection End but I always get the error: ERROR -- : ActiveRecord::AdapterNotSpecified

Hi, I''m deploying Unicorn on a Rails application with RUnit. Technically I''m using Chef''s deployment tools, if any of you are familiar with it (https://github.com/opscode-cookbooks/application_ruby) but to be clear they aren''t doing anything magical, so this is purely an issue with RUnit and Unicorn. The TL;DR of the following post, which has lots of

Has anyone seen anything like this before? I can get it to happen all the time if I issue a HEAD request, but it only happens very intermittently on GET requests. I''m using Ruby 1.9.2p180.

Hi, I''m trying to use unicorn in a test deployment of a Rails app that uses Mongoid, so Activerecord isn''t included in the app. When I start unicorn through Capistrano though, the stderr log fills up endlessly with identical ActiveRecord-related errors: I, [2012-12-05T04:19:25.375952 #5096] INFO -- : Refreshing Gem list I, [2012-12-05T04:19:32.941249 #5096] INFO -- :

Hi all, I''m having issues with Unicorn and connecting to RabbitMQ using the tmm1-amqp gem. I''ve tried lots of approaches. The classic initializer with Thread.new { EM.run } for the Rails app and even tried using the Qusion library. (https://github.com/danielsdeleo/qusion) I''ve made a simple mod to Qusion for it to monkey patch unicorn too. The code looks

We now give an example of how a before_fork hook can be used to incrementally migrate off the old code base without hitting a thundering herd (especially in the "preload_app false") case. Also comment on the per-worker listen usage in the RDoc, not just a hidden comment. --- I just pushed this out earlier, this example was inspired by Chris Wanstrath''s before_fork hook but

Signaling using normal kill(2) is preserved, but the master now prefers to signal workers using a pipe rather than kill(2). Non-graceful signals (:TERM/:KILL) are still sent using kill(2), as they ask for immediate shutdown. This change is necessary to avoid triggering the ubf (unblocking function) for rb_thread_call_without_gvl (and similar) functions extensions. Most notably, this fixes

If I''m running two rails apps on the same server using Unicorn, I have to run two instances of Unicorn, right? If so, then here''s a place where passenger might win in terms of memory use, as the rails code will be loaded into memory twice, right? I''m still probably going with Unicorn, but just exploring this first. Thanks, John
