similar to: Best Distro for Mongrel

Ok, a refinement of the question I asked yesterday (If there were any replies from yesterday I don''t have access to them here .. sorry if I''m duplicating anybody''s words here). How can one host multiple domains with mongrel? Assuming you are mass vhosting and you also want the performance benefits of using mongrel ... As far as I can tell, one could set up a

Hi All, I''ve been running into quite a few people who''ve claimed that they have Apache (or lighttpd) serving static files, but then they paste in error messages from Mongrel that shows not only Mongrel not serving the files, but Rails is serving them. Everyone using apache should run this very simple test: 1) Setup your apache so that it point at one backend. 2) Start your

Hi to everybody, This my first post on the list. I''m a newby of mongrel & rails, I''ve deployed my first project and everything seems to work fine, the only problem I have is the following: After about 1 or 2 days of the mongrel_rails daemon running the mongrel.pid in the log directory disappears, the mongrel process is still there running but doesn''t respond

Hey y''all: I''ve added some new stuff to mongrel_cluster. Give it try and let me know if it works for you. * Added ''--clean'' to cluster::start to force removal of the pidfile before trying to start the cluster member. This is useful for recovering from unexpected process death. * Added ''--only PORT'' to cluster::* to support running a

I just moved from apache2/fcgi to apache2.2/mongrel and everything seems to work great except for 2 issues, one being major and one minor. the major issue i am experiencing is that after a period of time where my rails apps are not used, typically overnight, the mongrel processes become unresponsive. I currently have 3 apps running behind an apache2.2 proxy. every morning when i come in to

Hello!

I just finished updating our internal site, which hosts multiple Rails apps, to Apache 2.2.3.

I tried to install Rails + Mongrel on CentOS4.3 64Bit (my provider only has the 64 Bit version available). I found out, that I have to install gcc and emacs-common and have to copy the *.h files of the ruby source into a certain directory (see below). But finally I get an error messag when I start mongrel and I have no idea how to solve that problem: wget

I am followint this article, http://blog.codahale.com/2006/06/19/time-for-a-grown-up-server-rails-mongrel-apache-capistrano-and-you/ ...but I keep getting this error in the log...not sure what to try next... ** Daemonized, any open files are closed. Look at log/mongrel.8000.pid and log/mongrel.log for info. ** Starting Mongrel listening at 127.0.0.1:8000

This is a super quick announcement for a new Mongrel plugin called mongrel_console. It was inspired by a request from Tobias L?tke who wanted to tail out logs while Mongrel was running. What mongrel_console does is combine the Rails script/console with Mongrel so that you can control a mongrel server while using script/console. Sounds weird but it''s quite awesome for development

Hey, I have just a few observations to report about the new version of Mongrel (0.3.13) on Win32. 1. When installing a new service, I have to use -N instead of -n to set the name of my app. The help file (-h option) has this right but the examples and such on the website all use -n. 2. The website documentation on the Win32 howto lists service::delete as a command but it should be

Thought I''d drop a note about my experience with running mongrel directly under the solaris service management framework. So far I''m very impressed. SMF is the solaris replacement for the init system. It''s tied much more closely to the OS and for instance doesn''t use pid files. I''ve found you can completely eliminate mongrel cluster, and for that

Hello Everyone, This is the official 0.3.13.3 release of Mongrel. Mongrel is now released under the *Ruby license* instead of the LGPL. I''m hoping this increases the adoption of Mongrel even further and hopefully I can start pushing to get Mongrel included in Ruby directly. INSTALL As usual, you install it with your friendly gem install method of choice: gem install mongrel Or

Hi mongrel users! I just posted a bad-ass capistrano file that automates *everything* for setting up an apache2+mod_proxy_balancer and mongrel+mongrel_cluster -- including apache2 setups. It''s based off Coda Hale''s guide and all Bradley''s work at fluxura and RailsMachine (thanks Coda and Bradley!). It''s, well, bad-ass, if I must say so myself. My favorite

Hey y''all: mongrel_cluster provides management tools for running Mongrel behind a reverse-proxy/load balancer. It is an extraction from Rails Machine, a deployment service and Ruby library that simplifies Rails application deployment. This release fixes bugs and adds a Capistrano task library. Changes: -changed pid file format to include port -only write configuration options

I''m trying to set up several different Rails apps on the same domain, each one running Mongrel. After reading all of the documentation, it''s fairly clear how to use subdomains - create several Apache virtual hosts, each of which has a different ProxyPass and ProxyPassReverse command to redirect from different ports (ie, 3000, 3100), and then have each Mongrel instance (or

I''ve been hunting the web and reading the mailing lists all day but I''m not finding any guidance on this problem. When I try to talk to my mongrel it simply responds with NOT FOUND and nothing else. I can''t find anything on google because this has to be the second most commond phrase in existence. Any help or guidance would be greatly appreciated. Sincerely, Chuck Vose

Apologizes in advance if this sounds rather dense, but I want to make sure I''m understanding everything correctly. We''re in the process of migrating from Apache2.0/FastCGI to Apache2.0+mongrel (why not 2.2? that story is too long and too uninteresting to recount here, but I will tell you that it involves RHEL and only using RHN rpms). The init script that comes with mongrel

Running into a strange bug using the mongrel upload progress plugin handler, sitting in front of a simple mongrel. The bug appears on an old Xserve (mac OS X 10.3.9 powerpc), but not on my macbook pro, or even a generic 686 linux box. http://pastie.textmate.org/98341 The gist of the pastie above shows that attempts through the browser and curl are actually hitting the filesController, as
