similar to: Rails production version not accessible from other machines

I just finished updating our internal site, which hosts multiple Rails apps, to Apache 2.2.3. It also has a TWiki rewritten into the root, ViewVC mounted on /cvs, and /server-status and /server-info. <VirtualHost *:80> ServerName int.example.com ServerAlias int CustomLog /var/www/logs/int.example.com/access.log combined ErrorLog /var/www/logs/int.example.com/error.log [...]

Hello, I am trying to deploy on to OS X Server with capistrano+mongrel+apache2, etc. I''m trying to do a "cap cold_deploy" as recommended here: http://blog.codahale.com/2006/06/19/time-for-a-grown-up-server-rails-mongrel-apache-capistrano-and-you/ I had a devil of a time getting cap to find the mongrel_rails command (which is in /opt/local/bin) on the server. I set the

I''ve been trying to track down the culprit of erratic behaviour and crashes on my production server (which is split into a number of Xen instances), so set up a staging server so that I could really try to get to the bottom of it. The staging server (also split with Xen) is set up pretty much identically as far as the mongrel_cluster server is concerned (the production box has two

Hi All, Machine A: has Apache 2.2 doing load balancing, also has DB and 8 mongrel processes I''m using mongrel_cluster . Now, I want to run Mongrels on Machine''s B and C (ie Cluster 3 Mongrels in three different machines). Is this possible? If possible then, please describe me the steps required (I''m using windows machines, and already losdt one week :-( ) Best

Hey All, I just wanted to get other peoples take on problems when running merb in production? Just as Rails used to do, the mongrels tend to get heavy/unresponsive over time so need a good kicking by a watcher daemon like god or monit. However, I have had serious problems getting God to restart the process, as the "merb -k <port>" command doesnt appear to work reliably

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 am out of my head here... I have a 3 node cluster with 10 mongrels running on each. When I deploy, I break all the mongrels every time. I have tried just about everything. I can restart my mongrels without a hitch manually, it''s only when I use cap deploy. Maybe I am missing something here... so if I can get some help it would be appreciated. The errors are the typical mongrel

A couple of questions please: What is the benefit of having more than one Mongrel/Rails instance on the same machine, could one instance not serve as many requests as say three instances? Is Mongrel Cluster a Apache add-in (like mod_*) or a separately running load balancer which runs on a separate port, I could not work it out from the sample Apache config... |# Redirect all non-static

Hi list, I have tried to reach Bradley (author of mongrel_cluster) by mail, but have not gotten a response. So I''ll try trough this channel: I have ''developed''[1] a small extension to mongrel_cluster that allows selective restart of any one listener in a configuration that contains more than one listener by using a command like mongrel_rails

I''m running FreeBSD 6.1 and installed the 1.0.1.1 mongrel_cluster prerelease. I had a problem with the mongrels not stopping, and it turns out it''s because ps is reporting my processes as just [ruby18] instead of someting more like "mongrel_rails start -d ......." Not sure why it''s doing that, but it is. Any ideas? For the time being I just changed line

Greetings - I dug around a bit and I couldn''t find a definitive answer to this question, apologies if it''s been covered before. A box running a apache 2.2 -> mongrel cluster for a rails app got power cycled at my ISP. Unfortunately monit couldn''t start the mongrel processes because the pid files were still there. Here is my monit config (for each mongrel

Apologizes in advance if this sounds rather dense, but I want to make sure I''m understanding everything correctly. We''re in the process of migrating from Apache2.0/FastCGI to Apache2.0+mongrel (why not 2.2? that story is too long and too uninteresting to recount here, but I will tell you that it involves RHEL and only using RHN rpms). The init script that comes with mongrel

I''m playing with the mongrel clustering, and am having a problem getting 2 mongrels to start up reliably. This should be a pretty simple cluster, with just 2 instances running. My mongrel config (mongrel_cluster.yml) looks like: cwd: /deployment/installed/myapp/current log_file: log/mongrel.log port: "8000" environment: production address: 127.0.0.1 pid_file:

I have 2 Ububtu DCs. One acting as a secondary/failover. At one point the users were replicated from primary to secondary. But now they are not replicating. The output from samba-tool drs showrepl is attached. What else may I provide to aid diagnostics? I know Samba does not replicate sysvol 'yet', so rsync is needed, but that does not seem to contain the users. Thank you,

Hi *, What''s the best way to find out on which port mongrel is running from within Rails? I have a cluster of mongrels behind a balancer (Pen) behind a webserver (Apache). In Rails, request.port return 80 and request.env[''SERVER_PORT''] returns 3000 (the port of Pen) Any ideas? Cheers, Max

Most of my machines have apache+mongrel running but the mongrels are using the localhost. In my production environment, I have 4 boxes. I have setup 2 http servers ( apache 2.2.4 ) and 2 app servers. They are currently using lighttpd+fastcgi. Which I am changing this week. I want to get advice from you guys before I actually do this since this is my production env. I have installed apache on the

I''ve done a clean install of Ubuntu 7.04 server in 2 different machines and everytime I reboot the machine or manually run /etc/ init.d/mongrel_cluster restart/start the mongrels won''t start correctly. I have to manually start them by using mongrel_rails cluster::start from each app folder. I''ve been searching around and it looks like mongrel has some problems

Hi all, I''ve been having problems with the apache 2.2-mod_proxy_balancer- mongrel setup. My setup is: CentOS 4.3 apache 2.2.3 (compiled from source) with mod_proxy_balancer mysql 4.1 ruby 1.8.4 mongrel 0.3.14 (I know I need to update but I think this problem is independent of the mongrel version) mongrel_cluster 0.2.0 rails_machine 0.1.1 I have apache setup as per Coda''s

Hi -- I have been reading documentation and googling around to find the correct way to do this but I have found many ways that seem to not work, or the documentation makes no reference to. I am using mongrel cluster with 10 mongrels for each server. Recently I installed monit but which lead me to find the correct way to start/stop mongrel instances one pid at a time. I am assuming one pid at a

Hi, I''m calling restart from my Capistrano task. I have this in my deploy.rb file: # until mongrel_cluster updates to cap2... namespace :deploy do task :start, :roles => :app do start_mongrel_cluster end task :stop, :roles => :app do stop_mongrel_cluster end task :restart, :roles => :app do restart_mongrel_cluster end end (What''s the scoop on
