Hi All, Just about to set up RoR on our server and was wondering what the ideal setup for RoR is these days? Apache 1? Apache 2? fCgi? Any guidance would be helpful! Thanks, -Adam

This might be obvious to everyone but it is something that i haven''t been able to find an answer to. Do I need to have either scgi/fastcgi/cgi running on either lighttpd/apache for ruby scripts to work? If yes, why? I have installed the scgi server and i can get the service to run, i have also installed the following mod_fastcgi/2.4.2 mod_ruby/1.2.4 Ruby/1.8.2(2004-12-25) mod_scgi,

I have a webserver that''s happily running apache2 and PHP. I''d like to deploy a site that I wrote using RoR on that same server but read that there might be some conflicts with PHP and RoR trying to access the same MySQL database. How real are those conflicts? Could I mess up my running PHP site if I install mod_ruby and try to use Apache2? Would I be better off

I hacked a forking FCGI dispatcher for Rails. I have no idea if this is the correct way to do it, but it seems to work fine. It improves memory usage a bit; after it is started the processes share almost 10 MB (of 12 MB total), but unfortunately it drops to 2 MB after a few requests. ===================================== #!/usr/local/bin/ruby require File.dirname(__FILE__) +

Hi, While learning Ruby and Rails, I decided I just as well learn Linux along the way... It''s been fun, but I''m stuck at one of those exasperating moments... I hope someone can help me :) I installed Ruby 1.8.4 on Fedora Core 4, then Rails, then lighty, and then SCGI. I used yum to install lighty... and it already comes with mod_scgi. I created my first application in

Hi Everyone, I figured out this weekend that Ruby''s Thread implementation causes the Ruby/Event binding I wrote to completely stall and go dead. After reviewing the Ruby source and watching several strace runs, it''s clear that the Ruby Thread implementation uses select in a way that--while not being bad--just isn''t compatible with libevent. The second a thread is

I just switched my rails app over to production mode, couldn''t get it working, switched it back to development mode, and now nothing gets outputted in the browser. I''m sure I''ve missed something in the configs. Setup: Lighttpd/SCGI on WinXP, Rails 1.0. Environment.rb: ENV[''RAILS_ENV''] ||= ''development'' require

Hi All, Alright, this release is getting closer. It''s nearly complete except the docs on my site aren''t written yet. There is however a full README with RDoc documentation and several packages including a gem release. Please check out the latest release at: * Announcement: http://www.zedshaw.com/ * README and RDoc:

hello. i''d like to share some feelings of mine after a couple of *weeks* intermittent attempts to have rails applications working on windows (XP) with fastcgi performances under apache (2.0). i''d say the software stack i''m using now will be fairly common as more and more new rails developers will join the bandwagon. what is stunning me is the fact that, even if

two problems, pls help...I''m under big pressure at work to fix this! I''m having trouble getting scgi and lighttpd running on windows - here''s what I did: On Win XP, I installed ruby, rubygems, and setup my rails app. All works fine with webrick. I then did: gem install cmdparse and gem install highline (as required for the scgi_rails gem according to

I am trying to run instant rails on windows xp SP2. I can get the cookbook and typo sample sites to work with webrick but not with scgi. When i click the start with scgi i get a blank dos window and typing www.mycookbook.com returns Firefox can''t establish a connection to the server at www.mycookbook.com. This suggests that apache is not even running even though the green light is

Hi all, can you recommend me which web server config to use for developing rails on windows machine. I tried webrick, which is good but it''s annoying because console window is in taskbar for every site running and it have to be started manually. Apache with CGI is to slow and using FastCGI on the other side brings me lot of problems, like randomly not working RoR sites. Any help is

Or does anybody prefer fastcgi/fcgi? I''m using webrick for development, but plan on using scgi when I switch to production (because it appears to be an update to fastcgi, and I couldn''t get fastcgi working anyhow). thanks csn __________________________________ Yahoo!

Hi, Love Rails... I''m looking for a Production Quality Server that brings the same ease of use as Rails does to web development. I''ve tried TextDrive, and never got it to work. I''m sure there are good reasons why it didn''t work but they are beyond me. I''ve contacted tech support there several times, and it seems that there are so many setups that

Why isnt the RoR community focusing on robust and scalable mod_perl style of Apache environment, rather then splintering all over the place with lighthttp, mongrel, WEBrick, SCGI, fcgi, etc??? Its frustrating as someone who is trying to migrate to RoR. Its very unlikely I would ever get a contract to work on any webserver except Apache, so it would seem logicaly to focus all our efforts to

I''ve liked the scgi runner ever since it came out. I like the way it''scontrolled, the way it''s clusterable, and the fact that it runs onwin32 platforms so easily. Now it''s May 2006, and the scgi runner hasn''t changed since October,and now we have mongrel. I keep seeing hints of clustering in mongrel,as well. I just downloaded the win32 installer for

Hi please help, Id like to get SCGI working with rails. having gone through the instruction its seems straight forward enough, but for one slight snag. mod_scgi.so the one I downloaded seems to be for DOS. no problem, I just download the source and comile it for Solaris, oh oh for some reason it doesn''t compile. So I decided to search the web for a binarie version for Solaris 10

Hi railers, (railers? Rails-ers? How do you folks refer to yourselves?) I''m brand spankin'' new to most of this. I''m just learning ruby, just learning rails, just learning MySQL, and really just learning about Apache/CGI-type stuff. I have a long background with UNIX sysadmin and scripting (lots and lots of Perl and Bash), so the ruby is coming fast (and

Hello, is anybody using mod_scgi on FreeBSD? I can''t build it from the port. Anybody else having build problems? Greetings Michael Kastner

I''m trying to get an application running in a sub directory of a site using apache and scgi. The application runs fine with webrick. I have a site. Let''s call it "mysite.org". There is a variety of content on that site. I would like to add a rails application to that site. Let''s call the application "myapp". So we will have urls of the form
