similar to: DirHandler in surplus slashing / unrequited unescaping

Hey Folks, Another announcement of Mongrel -- the fastest little web server library for Ruby yet. This release is nice in that it should build on win32 better and it now sports a small DirHandler that can serve directories and files. This means Mongrel is closer to replacing WEBrick as a Rails debug runner. You can get the releases and information from: *

im trying to figure out how to serve a favicon.ico for my app, does anyone have a line for Mongrel::Configurator? all i can see is that everyone seems to use the 404 handler...how boring.. uri "/favico", :handler => Mongrel::DirHandler.new(File.dirname(__FILE__)+"/favicon.ico") is sort of close, but it says The image ?http://m/favicon.ico? cannot be displayed, because it

A new TRAC entry with patch has been added (initially for Camping) to allow X-SendFile on Windows to use DirHandler to send files on drives other than the current drive, if the DirHandler base path is "/" (which is the way Camping uses DirHandler). As it was, "/" gets expanded to "C:/", and then you can''t serve files on any other drive, which I needed to do

fiddled around a bit and got DirGHandler to work for both files and directories with spaces in them, and plusses in them (on disk). eg: <a href="/files/usr/portage/packages/All/gtk%2B-2.10.1.tbz2">gtk+-2.10.1.tbz2</a><br/> <a href="/files/root/hey+whatsthis+dir">hey whatsthis dir</a> both end up at the right place now.. ..c. --------------

It seems that Merb is sending static files with Mongrel::DirHandler. (mongrel_handler.rb:52) if get_or_head and @files.can_serve(path_info) # File exists as-is so serve it up MERB_LOGGER.info("Serving static file: #{path_info}") @files.process(request,response) I haven''t done benchmarks and I''ve hardly glanced at DirHandler''s code but the

I am not sure what i am doing wrong here, but no matter what i try i get no output from mongrel_config: $ mongrel_rails configtool $ telnet localhost 3001 Trying 127.0.0.1... Connected to localhost.

I got some advice from Rick last night and started coding this handler to allow for time-based secure downloading similar to mod_secdownload that lighttpd offers. I got most of the code in the handler worked out and packaged into a gem but am still having the following problems: 1) I have a configuration script as follows require ''mongrel'' config = Mongrel::Configurator.new

Howdy. I''m working on a RoR CMS and need cached pages to all be in public/cache rather than public [in order to set svn:ignore on all the files properly]. I can get page_cache_directory set correctly and the pages are cached in the right place but Mongrel isn''t serving them because it''s only looking for them in public. During development I know I can set -r public/cache

Hello, So, I grabbed the mongrel_upload_progress code from subversion because I really need something similar for a project I am working on. Anyway, I installed the gem and can''t figure out a few things. 1) I''m not sure what Upload < GemPlugin::Plugin "/handlers" is for 2) How to call the Progress < GemPlugin::Plugin "/handlers" handler. While I

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,

Hello Folks, This is the long awaited release of the Mongrel HTTP library that supports *Ruby On Rails*. I know tons of people have been waiting for it, so I''ve got a few things to lay down first before you get all excited: 1) It''s very very ALPHA support for Rails. It will run a Rails app, and runs my simple apps, but it''s not fast or correct as it needs to

Morning Folks, I have a pre-release of Mongrel 0.3.12.4 up on the releases site that I''d appreciate everyone testing out. This release fixes the following: * Corrects the date format returned so that months are three chars only. * Fixes a problem where DirHandler wasn''t returning Last-Modified and Etag headers for unknown MIME types. * Implements a default mime type for

Everyone tracking the Mongrel 0.3.12 pre-release should dump their current install and re-install: $ gem uninstall mongrel $ gem uninstall gem_plugin $ gem install mongrel --source=http://mongrel.rubyforge.org/releases/ This release fixes a problem with specifying a directory to change to, and fixes the incredibly broken DirHandler code from last night. The big change people will probably

Hello Everyone, Just a small announcement for Mongrel 0.3.12.4 which fixes the following things: * Corrects the date format returned so that months are three chars only. * Fixes a problem where DirHandler wasn''t returning Last-Modified and Etag headers for unknown MIME types. * Implements a default mime type for anything it doesn''t know about, and lets you set it via an

Hi all, I''m playing around with mongrel handlers and I came across a behaviour that seems abnormal to me with regard to the Configurator#uri calls. It appears that order matters. For instance: ... listener do uri "/icons", :handler => DirHandler.new("/var/www/icons") uri "/", :handler =>

Hello. I just seen some errors in my mongrel application log: It seems related to the httpd OPTIONS keyword Example: Processing LoginController#login (for .30.5.208 at 2007-12-10 09:00:23) [OPTIONS] and our ruby application does not know what to do with it. and finally send an error Does mongrel (which is the http server) is supposed to deal with these kind of request ? I think these

I''m wondering if it''s possible to setup mongrel to have multiple document roots? The use case I''m trying to solve is one where I have a library of shared CSS/JS/Images and would like multiple rails application to use them. I have written a proxy controller and added some routes to serve the static files and it works reasonably well, but is extremely slow, because

I've created a dict service that listens on a unix socket and answers queries for sieve scripts (among other things). As I understand it (from the source code at http://hg.dovecot.org/dovecot-2.2/file/tip/src/lib-dict/dict-client.c), the dict client will unescape \001n, \001t, and \0011 to line feeds, tabs, and the \001 character respectively. In my service I am escaping those three
