Hi. I''m a fairly new mongrel user and have a scenario that I wanted to run by you all, see if anyone''s synapses connect -- mine def. aren''t! I''m running a fairly simple rails app through a mongrel cluster (2 mongrels). This site is consistently sloooow -- memory on the server is regularly paging (and shouldn''t be). ssh-ing in and running top shows

Hi all... Hopefully this is the last prelease. If people on non-linux systems could post back any problems with cluster::status, I''d appreciate it. Install with: gem install mongrel_cluster --source http://mongrel.rubyforge.org/releases/ Note: This is only an update to mongrel_cluster and not Mongrel or other gems. Details about what''s new (if you missed the first

I recently got into using RoR, and the only issue that concerned me was the apparently complexity of deployment. Setting up fastcgi can be a bit of a pain, and I was hoping that the Rails community would come up with something simpler. Mongrel was recommended to me from someone on my local Ruby user group. It was trivial to install as a Gem on my Linux desktop and the FreeBSD server that I am

Calling All Mongrel Minions! I wanna have some fun and would like this as a Christmas present. The site http://www.workingwithrails.com/ has this lame popularity system that''s kind of irking some of the main Ruby contributors. I think it''s kind of funny, but would like to demonstrate what an army of motivated people can do to these kinds of popularity contests. So, as a

Alright, it seems that I am having a bit of a problem with mongrel. My mongrel processes have been crashing pretty often and twice last night. I''m really not sure why, but I really need to fix it. I am running 0.3.13.3. Here is the mongrel.log file. Any ideas, things to look at, etc... is appreciated. Thanks, Carl PS, do all the broken pipe lines mean Mongrel is serving the static

Z-Man, DHH recently said: "And [_why''s] latest work on sandbox looks stellar. Making it drop-dead easy to run multiple Rails applications in the same Mongrel process without conflicts. Thumbs up to both him and Matz for getting Sandbox on track for inclusion with the next Ruby release." Does that mean what I think it means - that one or more Mongrel processes may one day be

Hello, I''m trying to get a new application running with mongrel. I''ve been running a number of applications already using it and it''s been working fine, however now I can''t get mongrel to start. The only difference I can think of is that I''m using postgresql for this and not mysql. However, I am able to run the application using webrick. When

Hi all, My environment is ruby-1.8.4, rails 1.2.2, mongrel 1.0.1, linux 2.6. Now, i have a problem on memory leaks with mongrel. My site is running 5 mongrel processes on a 2G RAM machine, the memory of each process grows from about 20M to about 250M, but it never recover to the initial 20M, so i had to restart the mongrel processes once per day. The load is about 1M hits per day. Waiting for

What''s a rule of thumb for guesstimating how many Mongrels to use in a cluster for an app? I have an app that gets about 5000 unique visitors per day. I figured I''d give it plenty of Mongrels -- twenty to be specific. After running out of memory and hitting the swap periodically, I scaled it back to five and it still seems to serve up visitors fine. So, is there some super-secret

Hello, I''m just wondering if there could possibly be a memory leak with the latest pre-release? When I run it, the processes keep increasing in memory size and easily pass 200MB and eventually crash due to a lack of memory. Is anybody else having this problem? Thanks, -carl PS, Zed, I sent you two emails directly to your address with logs and other stuff. Let me know if you

I''m using ruby on rails on a Macbook Pro with sqlite3. I''m finding that memory for the ruby process stays about 20mb until I hit an error after which the mermory doesn''t seem to be released and keeps going up until I can''t use my machine. What could be causing this? is it using sqlite3? have I set up rails or ruby wrong? Tim -------------- next part

Hey guys, Ok, basically I coded a ruby on rails CMS to manage a bunch of media files. I am finding that a lot of people are "hot linking" to these media files and would like to prevent this to save bandwidth. Usually in the past, it hasn''t been a problem, I would add something like the following to my .htaccess file RewriteEngine on RewriteCond %{HTTP_REFERER} !^$

Hi ! My mongrel just starting spitting out these nice lines: The error occured while evaluating nil.accept. TELL ZED HE''S A MORON. !!!!!! UNHANDLED EXCEPTION! You have a nil object when you didn''t expect it! Not sure what happened or why, but just FYI: Zed, you are a moron :-) Happy holidays! Gitte Wange

Hey Folks, I''ve been rather absent lately, but I now have this week slated for full-time Mongrel development. The goal is to get a few big fixes into 0.3.13.4 and release that, and then get a pre-release of 0.4 out for folks to test against. Please make sure you put any outstanding bugs into: http://rubyforge.org/tracker/?atid=5145&group_id=1306&func=browse And any feature

Hi there what''s the status of the 0.13.4 release on Windows? I want to wrap up a project in the next 2 weeks and I''d wait for the new release if it''s coming in that timeframe. Otherwise I''d stay with the current windows version. thanks Jens-Christian Fischer

I hope everyone is getting something out of these recommendations. Today''s recommendation comes from the "Damn Common Sense" dept. of advice. Let''s say you''ve written a really really slow rails application. Best you can get out of the thing is 2 req/sec. What can you possibly do about that? It''s a common problem for new rails developers. Well, the

Hey folks, I ran into a few people at RubyConf who were having 99% CPU issues. Please contact me if you meet the following criteria: 1. You are running a production site. 2. You are experiencing 99% CPU errors. 3. This is frequent enough that you cannot manage it. Thank you. Please contact me off-list about it. -- Zed A.

Time for some all time pimpage folks. Me and Matt Pelletier wrote a small PDF book on Mongrel entitled: "Mongrel: Serving, Deploying, and Extending Your Ruby Applications" since we really wanted you to know what it was about. It''s published by Addison Wesley Professional, has just over 100 pages of goodness, and is available for $14.99 at: http://safari.oreilly.com/0321483502

Hi everybody, I just suscribe to the list because I have a problem using mongrel and mongrel_cluster... I setup a server (debian unstable wich provide apache 2.2.3 as a pakage) but I have an error when I try to access my application : ERROR 403 : Forbidden, You don''t have permission to access / on this server.
