Hi, first off thanks Ezra for Merb - it''s certainly interesting and I''m keen to have a play. However, I''m having difficulties in getting started. I''ve followed the docs for setting up mrblog and everything seems to be installed correctly, and merb appears to start fine: $ merb you must install the markaby gem to use .mab templates you must install the

Hello Mongrels, Building on the last messages about Fastthread, can we get a detailed survey of the different ways people are deploying their applications? It will help with near-future Mongrel development. Please include the following things: * Framework, if any (Camping, Merb, Rails, Nitro, Ramaze, IOWA, Rack...) * Mongrel version * Mongrel handlers used (rails, dirhandler, camping,

I''m trying to emulate the mongrel_cluster_ctl but it takes a -c conf_file option... meaning I can run it from anywhere as long as I tell it where the conf file is. Merb doesn''t have that capability does it? (it has an additional/supplemental config like mup.conf etc) Do I have to be under the merb_app root /path/to/merb/app/ to be able to run merb? Let me know. Thanks,

I''m having an issue with ARsessions... I have a rails app AND a merb app both under the same domain... I have redirects working for this to be seamless... however, the session started on merb is different than the session started in the rails app... like so.. http://pastie.caboo.se/private/r1ar42qiaekrqjdt6y Any ideas why? The only difference I see, but dunno where to change this, is

Hi all, Tried out the mongrel upload progress plugin with Drb and it works great on my OSX development box, but when putting it into production (Ubuntu Dapper), uploads complete but the app isn''t returning any values for upload progress, and uploads are not showing up in the queue when running upload_client.rb. Before anyone asks, yes, I''m running both the mongrel instances and

Hey all, First off, thanks to Rick Olson and whoever else was involved with this plugin... It''s been amazingly easy to implement. I''ve got a question about the path_info parameter, though... It seems that unless the request PATH_INFO exactly matches the path_info passed in to the plugin at inclusion, it won''t actually trigger Add and add the upload to the list of

It is something that I have been wondering. When working with other application servers there is often/most of the time a 3 tiers/layers architecture: - Presentation layer/Web services - Application layer - Database layer They often resides on separate machines, 3 different sets. So the application code is logically AND physically separated from the presentation layer. Is this possible with

Hi Is there some definitive guide for upload progress plugin ? We have in this mailing list a lot of testimonials, bug reports, bug fixes, but there are still people like me who cannot use it correctly. Here is my config: - mongrel 1.0RC and upload progress plugin 0.2.1 - a 6 mongrels cluster - config/mongrel_upload_progress.conf: uri "/", :handler =>

Hi all, I''m using Boxroom (http://boxroom.rubyforge.org/) and trying to get upload progress working. I''ve also been testing the sample code at http://itblog.mcgeecorp.com/2007/5/15/mongrel-upload-progress-demo/. I run a Mongrel cluster, and so am using drb (as per http://mongrel.rubyforge.org/docs/upload_progress.html). Starting up rails, I get lots of useful-sounding output:

Hello, I have a cluster of three Mongrels running behind Pound. All is running well except when I restart the cluster (mongrel_rails cluster::restart) any in progress file uploads (handled through mongrel_upload_progress) stop uploading. That is, if I''m uploading a file (via a web app being served by the mongrel cluster) during a restart, my browser will indefinitely pause as if it is

Hello, I''ve been using NFS for sharing files across a cluster of servers but I''ve had a lot of problems with that. I''m planning to move to MogileFS which seems to be more stable and more adapted to this usage (lots of user uploaded files). I wonder if someone has already worked on an integration of MogileFS into Mongrel (and Rails app) for serving the files ? If not, I

Hello, I''m trying to install the upload_progress gem and i can''t see the upload progress status. My config is : apache2 with mod_proxy mongrel rails upload.rb : ############## require ''rubygems'' require ''drb'' require ''gem_plugin'' GemPlugin::Manager.instance.load ''mongrel'' => GemPlugin::INCLUDE

Hi Folks, I''m sure tons of people are gonna ruin a whole drawer of their best panties over this one. Rick Olson worked on the mongrel_upload_progress gem, documentation and examples and has almost everything you need to do progress tracked file uploads using just Mongrel to handle the upload. This means that Rails (or any other framework) isn''t blocked while the upload

I have an archiving application that handles large file uploads. I already use backgroundrb to run a behind the scenes bulk import of records. All good. Thank you Ezra. Now I would like to add long running file uploads to the things that backgroundrb does for me. That''s right that ole chestnut. I''ve seen a lot of mention of this practice around the web, but have yet

I''m a bit confused about how to get upload progress to work with mongrel.. I''ve installed the mongrel_upload_progress (0.1) gem, but have no idea what to do with it. According to the following page: http://technoweenie.backpackit.com/pub/602283 there''s a patch (mup.diff) which seems like it patches the mongrel_upload_progress plugin The following blog entry makes it

I was using the sample_app and found out that the progress bar wasn''t changing color. It was updating the percentage but wasn''t updating the width of the status bar style... I found that the mup.js was missing and appended "px" So here it is: my first ever Merb patch! http://pastie.caboo.se/28450 cheers, -rjs- (the_mug) Blog: http://www.rosamour.com --------------

I am using mongrel_cluster with mod_proxy_balancer and would like to enable compression (assuming it improves throughtput) and limit file size upload. I configured mod_deflate and LimitRequestSize in Apache, but in my trials looks like the proxied calls bypass those directives (the conf goes below). Is there a way to get this? -- fxn # Adapt this .example locally, as usual. # # To be

Hi all, I encounter timeout errors during file uploads in my Rails application. I think the problem may be in the Mongrel configuration. Here is my setup: * Load balancer (Cisco CSM, my provider''s Catalyst 6509) * Apache 2.2.3 with mod_proxy_balancer * Mongrel 0.3.13.3 * Rails 1.1.6 * Ruby 1.8.4 * MySQL 5.0.22 * file_column I host an application in which users may upload medium files

Just a quick question to those of you using merb and sequel or datamapper. How do you setup your merb app? For example: merb -X off -c 5, then run mod_proxy_balancer or nginx to load balance between the 5 (or whatever #) of merb nodes? merb -X off -d, then simply use something like proxypass merb -c 5, keep the mutex lock and cluster it haproxy, swiftiply, evented mongrel...... What

Rails instances themselves are almost always single-threaded, whereas Mongrel, and it''s acceptor, are multithreaded. In a situation with long-running Rails pages this presents a problem for mod_proxy_balancer. If num_processors is greater than 1 ( default: 950 ), then Mongrel will gladly accept incoming requests and queue them if its rails instance is currently busy. So even
