Hi. Although an expert developer for IBM systems (iSeries) I am VERY new to RoR and somehow to the PC development world as well and not familiar AT ALL with PC configurations, etc. (in my regular job good ol'' IBM takes care of all that and I just need to code). So forgive me if any of the following sounds stupid, it probably is. Just get a laugh at my expense and try to answer between

Hi all, I deployed a Rails application on a Windows Server 2003 machine as follows: + I created two instances of Mongrel at ports 4001, 4002 to serve the application + I set up an Apache instance at port 8080 for balancing load for the two Mongrels => So I can access my website at URL http://mywebsite:8080/ + I want to allow users access my website without typing port 8080 in the URL.

Can anyone direct me to a really good tutorial on Shibboleth integration with Rails, or indeed some sample code? I''ve been tearing my hair out all day on this one.

Hi All, Machine A: has Apache 2.2 doing load balancing, also has DB and 8 mongrel processes I''m using mongrel_cluster .

If possible then, please describe me the steps required (I''m using windows machines, and already losdt one week :-( ) Best

There is a lot of hype over mod_rails, but from my understanding it is more geared for servers with a number of apps on it. The reason it seems that way is how it frees up the memory if an app is stagnant for an extended period. The freeing up of the memory may not be an issue if the application gets a continuous traffic flow. I have a site that I will be putting up in a couple days and am

Hi, I just deployed my first rails application in production mode using Capistrano and mongrel clusters.

Is Mongrel dead? When I look at http://mongrel.rubyforge.org/wiki/News the latest news was from close to a year ago, when last version of Mongrel was released. A look at the tickets shows a rather sad picture with only two developers “evanweaver” and “luislavena” contributing to the bug fixes lately. Please understand that I am not complaining – I just want to know the situation so that I can

Has anyone tried using Rails (or PHP or whatever) on IIS lately? There is a FastCGI extention for IIS 5.1 and 6.0 [1], backported from IIS7 if I understand correctly. I''m curious if anyone thinks this would work in production and give Rails a decent inroad for IIS-based shops. It seems to perform [2] but I would like some verification from the community at large before I mention the

Hi, I could never find out what''s the difference between nginx and mongrel. All my searches say "nginx is a HTTP server ..." and "Mongrel is a fast HTTP library and server for Ruby....". For me they both mean "...HTTP server...". I kept up with this question for some time till I came across this santence from the guys at Friend for Sale: -----------------

Hi, I am a bit confused about what is the fastest way to run a rails application. I have seen examples which use Apache, mongrel, lighthttpd, fastcgi etc. Is there a correct way to do it?

Hi, I''ve configured a rails application on my VPS to run on two mongrels. When I run curl on localhost, the starting page comes up fine. That is, mongrel is serving the app perfectly. The problem arises when trying to access the app on my ip through apache. I get a 403 error. Just to test things out, I''ve set generous permissions on the entire rails directory structure

Hello list, I wonder if someone could help me understand the following: I''ve got a managed dedicated server with GoDaddy. Until now, I''ve only hosted PHP applications there.

Hi I''m running a 2-instance Mongrel cluster behind Apache 2.2.4 with Rails 1.2.3. If no requests are received by the application for several hours (this usually happens overnight) then Mongrel stops responding and no requests are detected by Rails (at least nothing is in the Rails log). Nothing untoward is in the Mongrel log. If you try and visit the application, the request times out

I have a running Rails application that uploads files back to the server occasionally. I recently switched my development machine from a Linux box to OS X 10.5, using the Apache server built-in on OS X and mod_fcgid. I thought everything was fine until I recently tried to use the file upload feature. If I specify a reasonable sized (164 Kb) file for upload then I get an immediate error, before my
