similar to: apache2 fastcgi (fcgi) internal server errors, still :(

With the release of our filmfury.com project, I''ve been trying to rise to the stature of a true system administrator in the last couple of days (haha). I''m trying to understand how all of the pieces to this apache/fastcgi deployment fit together. Here''s what I''ve learned so far: * You need a separate FastCGI server for each Rails application on your

Hi everybody I am trying to get RoR to work with lighttpd. Nearly there, but I am stuck with a strange phenomenon. If I configure lighttpd to serve pages on say port 2000, I can get at my testapp fine and see the "Welcome aboard" page. However, if I configure lighttpd to use port 80, I get a download prompt from my browser. If I access my URI like

I''ve just spent a while chasing a false bug in lighttpd and load balancing among external fast cgi processes due to what I think is a documentation bug. Following the info on the wiki page <http://wiki.rubyonrails.com/rails/pages/LighttpdWithProcessScripts>, one would think that something like this works: fastcgi.debug = 1 fastcgi.server = ( ".fcgi" => (

Hi, I have an application completed that was built with RoR on windows. So this of course was tested with the webbrick server. I now want to put the project on our apache web server for production. I am having a very hard time getting this accomplished. I followed some of the steps here (because not all of them worked):

I have an application that works fine in development mode under plain old CGI and I''m trying to get it running under FCGI with multiple hours of frustration. Lately, I am running dispatch.fcgi standalone from the command line. It gives me a not very helpful one line error message; Status: 500 Internal Server Error The log file produces a not very helpful 2 line message;

I was talking to a friend of mine who''s developing PHP on trax and we came up with a solution to the ruby session file problem. I''m not sure if this idea has come up before, so I wanted to run it by everyone before making any code contributations and/or talking to the Rails core about it. It seems to me that the current situation we''re in with regard to

Hi, I wanna use Rails on a SuSE server with apache. Everything should be installed correctly, but when running the application I get this in my apache log: FastCGI: comm with server "/srv/www/htdocs/web4/html/rails/public/dispatch.fcgi" aborted: idle timeout (60 sec) FastCGI: incomplete headers (0 bytes) received from server

Yesterday, our of nothing my server went down... Rails application failed to start properly Imediately i started checking my logs and found quickly that something was wrong with the dispatch.fcgi or its function. I use FCGI, and it had been working perfectly with Apache 2.0.55, MySQL 5.0, Ruby 1.8.2 and Rails 1.1.2. What really got me wondering was that I did nothing. One day it worked

Hi all, I''m trying to use Apache 2.0.52 and FastCGI on Mac OS 10.4.6 and I''m having some trouble. The server starts up fine, but I get the error at the bottom of this post once I make a request to the rails app. I was curious if anyone had an idea as to why it wasn''t working. I have everything installed correctly (rubygems, fastcgi, ruby bindings, etc). I had this

Hi, I made some experiments with the sample blog application, my index.fcgi file contains the following: require ''camping/fastcgi'' Camping::Models::Base.establish_connection( :adapter => ''sqlite3'', :database => ''database/camping.db'' ) Camping::FastCGI.serve(''blog.rb'') Without ScriptAlias the application works fine,

Hi All, I have a Rails application that needs to be served from a Fedora Core 3 Linux server. The application runs well as a "plain" CGI application. My next step was to speed things up with FastCGI installed via "gem install fcgi". (version 0.8.6.1). That approach lead to this error in the fastcgi.crash.log: Dispatcher failed to catch: undefined method

I am running a RoR application on Apache 1.3/RedHat 7.3/MySQL 3.1.23 (Old versions I know, but upgrading to latest versions are not practical for a number of reasons). There are 5 RoR FastCGI processes configured using FastCgiServer. What I am finding is that, after a while, some of the FastCGI processes seem to ''hang''. They no longer process requests, and the only way to

I finally got around to installing lighttpd on my mac for dev work, followed the instructions at http://hivelogic.com/articles/2005/12/01/ruby_rails_lighttpd_mysql_tiger When I go into my rails app and type "./script/server" I get the following errors: baggio:~/work/teore pergesu$ ./script/server => Booting lighttpd (use ''script/server webrick'' to force WEBrick)

Hi everybody, after more than 18 hours trying to get Ruby Rails running, i ran into this problem that i cannot solve. I want to mention that with normal CGI the test app was running fine.

Hi I''m a RoR newbie, in fact i''ve been using it for less than 24 hours, but I''m not an internet/pc/apache/developement newbie so I expected this to go much easier :) Ok, here it goes. I''ve been trying to get RoR working with apache both on a RH server and after i didn;t managed there I tried on my machine, an windows XP/Apache2 machine. I don''t like

I''m running Ruby on Rails via FastCGI in an Apache environment, and I get the following error, a lot.

I''m successfully running Typo (from SVN) as a FastCGI application. Hieraki works well with "script/server", and works well as a .cgi (just very slow). My problem is, that
