Hi mongrel users! I just posted a bad-ass capistrano file that automates *everything* for setting up an apache2+mod_proxy_balancer and mongrel+mongrel_cluster -- including apache2 setups. It''s based off Coda Hale''s guide and all Bradley''s work at fluxura and RailsMachine (thanks Coda and Bradley!). It''s, well, bad-ass, if I must say so myself. My favorite

I''ve been hunting the web and reading the mailing lists all day but I''m not finding any guidance on this problem. When I try to talk to my mongrel it simply responds with NOT FOUND and nothing else. I can''t find anything on google because this has to be the second most commond phrase in existence. Any help or guidance would be greatly appreciated. Sincerely, Chuck Vose

Running into a strange bug using the mongrel upload progress plugin handler, sitting in front of a simple mongrel. The bug appears on an old Xserve (mac OS X 10.3.9 powerpc), but not on my macbook pro, or even a generic 686 linux box. http://pastie.textmate.org/98341 The gist of the pastie above shows that attempts through the browser and curl are actually hitting the filesController, as

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 have a small intranet app with only 20 or so users. I''m currently using lighttpd w/ssl for production and mongrel for dev. I don''t think Mongrel supports ssl, but what is the easiest front-end to put in front of it? Pound? Thanks Greg -- Greg Freemyer The Norcross Group Forensics for the 21st Century

Hey y''all: I''ve added some new stuff to mongrel_cluster. Give it try and let me know if it works for you. * Added ''--clean'' to cluster::start to force removal of the pidfile before trying to start the cluster member. This is useful for recovering from unexpected process death. * Added ''--only PORT'' to cluster::* to support running a

I know we already mentioned this before on the list but I couldn''t find it in the archives. Is there a way to differentiate the versions for ruby/mswin32 so that I could run a command like: # sudo gem install mongrel --source=http://mongrel.rubyforge.org/releases/ --include-dependencies --version 1.0 and have it not prompt me like this: Select which gem to install for your platform

Howdy, I am using the ''default'' Apache 2.2 mod_rewrite rules suggested from the Web site and they are working. One thing related to static (non cluster directed) resources: If I have a directory in public called ''static'', if I request it as follows: http://www.domain.com/static/ - then it works If I request it as: http://www.domain.com/static - then it

hey all, I managed to configure a mongrel+apache2 but now I would like to do a mongrel_cluster. For now I have a sites-available/myapp but when it comes to mongrel_cluster I need to set up myapp.common, myapp.proxy_cluster.conf and myapp.proxy_frontend.conf and I couldn''t find a tutorial that explain where should those file go. is it in conf.d or sites-available/ or else? thanx in

Hey, I was wondering what everyone else does in regards to getting webalizer or other site statistics software to work with mongrel. I currently have a mongrel cluster running behind apache 2.2 with proxy_mod_balancer, but I"m finding that webalizer isn''t too thrilled with that mod. Thanks, Andrew

Hi there I have a rails application that has been deployed with mongrel_cluster. My application contains a model "Cluster.rb" and now I run into namespacing problems when accessing the Cluster class (the Mongrel:Cluster module get''s to try to resolve method calls which leads to a embarrassing NoMethodFound errors) I have started renaming my model, but I wonder what the

Hello all, I''ve gone through a lot of extra effort trying to get Mongrel to place nice with Ubuntu. Since I''m at my wit''s end trying to get it to work on this distro, I was wondering if anyone could suggest a distribution that makes it easy to set up. Any thoughts?

I have an application I''m working on which allows me to upload files. The files are stored somewhere in the public directory so that they can be accessed directly. When I deploy an update with Capistrano, I ''lose'' the files because of the current symlink points to the new checked out version. Before I start working on a solution, has anyone else already solved this

Hi, I am using backgroundrb to create a automated system of typo blogs.So, users can create new typo applications using web interface and all that jazz. Now..its working perfectly except one minor glitch. Since latest version of typo has a command called "typo", i simply use that command to install new typo app.And it works. def do_work(args) DIR =

Hi Folks, I''ve been getting reports of people with serious stability problems in Mongrel. These problems go away instantly when they remove ruby-sendfile. If your mongrel starts up saying that you have "sendfile installed" and that it is using it then **you are wrong**. Remove the gem and don''t use it. I''ll be investigating why it doesn''t really

Hello! Today I''m announcing a "soft but official" release of Mongrel 0.3.13.4 for the Unix fans in the crowd. It''s been running stable for quite some time now for many people, and should be great for nearly everyone. You can read the announce at: http://mongrel.rubyforge.org/ This release includes new versions of mongrel_upload_progress and mongrel_cluster.

Hi all I got a vps setup amazingly fast using the deprec recipes on Ubuntu edgy, but now I''m having a minor issue where my site loads for the main domain when I only want it accessible from the subdomain. This is a pretty typical setup, apache 2.2.3 -> mongrel_proxy_balancer -> mongrel cluster. I''m sure I''m missing something obvious in the config... I have the

Hello everyone, I am trying to setup Mongrel to work with Apache on a VPS as part of a mephisto installation. Has anyone done this, and if so how did you edit your conf file to make it work? I used the info found on the mongrel site at: http://mongrel.rubyforge.org/docs/apache.html<http://mongrel.rubyforge.org/docs/apache.html> and one time I did get a mephisto splash screen, but it was

Hi All, I''ve been running into quite a few people who''ve claimed that they have Apache (or lighttpd) serving static files, but then they paste in error messages from Mongrel that shows not only Mongrel not serving the files, but Rails is serving them. Everyone using apache should run this very simple test: 1) Setup your apache so that it point at one backend. 2) Start your
