hi, having a maddening problem with a redirects between controllers. app is working fine on my two local machines, a mac and a pc, with either webrick and lighttpd/cgi on either machines. i move it to my hosting provider and try to get it working with apache + cgi, most of it works, but it fails at a specific spot, and causes dispatch.cgi to hang indefinitely. nothing shows up at all in the

Hi I thought it was time to test my app out on a real server. So i have installed lighttpd following the instruction on the rails wiki. everything seems to work fine except the file upload page. It doesn''t throw any errors, it just doesn''t seem to write the image to disk. Nothing is printed to the lighttpd error log when the file upload fails. I thought it might be my code

Hi, I''m running RoR and have set it up more or less like described in the wiki (for instance here http://wiki.rubyonrails.org/rails/pages/LighttpdWithProcessScripts). I can start the fcgi listener and see that ports 7000-7004 are listening. I can start lighttpd, and try to connect to the server. I can restart the default.fcgi listening scripts that i see in "ps ax | grep

Hi, I''m having difficulty getting ruby running via Lighttpd and fastcgi.

I have Mongrel 0.3.13.4 running Rails 1.1.6 behind Apache 2.2.3 with mod_proxy_balancer, mongrel_cluster 0.2.0 as per the documentation, and mongrel_upload_progress 0.2, on Fedora Core 4. I''m using a cluster of three Mongrels. I have an existing app which allows users to upload files, and I''m migrating it to Mongrel from Lighttpd. Uploading files via multipart forms

I''ve been trying to add a basic file upload feature (just based on the Rails Recipes example), but I find that it only works with the webrick server and not my lighttpd 1.4.11 server. I''m running Rails 1.1.2 on OSX. The upload silently fails with both firefox and Safari, even with the useragent hack and with any size of file/image. My lighttpd config is pretty standard as

It''s actually REALLY easy with lighttpd on linux. Two apps...

Hello all, I use lighttpd 1.4.8 and I have a problem with image uploads. I tried file_upload plugin, but it is strangely working sometimes and refuse to work sometimes.

Haven''t been able to find a good enough answer on whether using sanitize() is enough to really protect me from XSS attacks I basically have a blog page that I want to allow people to display comments on but would like to allow html tags to be posted on the comments, these could html tags like the imageshack img tags, youtube player, photobucket img tags etc any other approaches or

I''ve just checked in changes to improve handling of massive posts and massive downloads. Generally speaking, Mongrel has been keeping everything in memory. (Unless you''re using DirHandler and have the sendfile gem in place.) Now, downloads should be pretty swift even without the sendfile gem. HttpResponse#send_file rips out the file streaming support from DirHandler and

Hi Guys, I hope someone can help me out. I am trying to configure two applications to run on lighttpd and each app will have its own domain. My machine is running on Fedora. When I run my lighttpd with the following conf file, I get no error but when I check out my app, it dishes out a 404 error- the 404 being served isn''t the 404 inside the railsapp/public folder. Do hope someone

I am having trouble uploading files through a form when using Apache (production) or Lighttpd (development). The odd thing is that when I force script/server to load Webrick, the upload works just fine on the same code-base. When it fails, the upload just sits there forever. Some browsers eventually return an error code, others spin for a long time... Anyway, it never recovers. The file is a

Situation: Need to increase performance of large file uploads. Hardware: Mac Mini Core Duo (1.66) with 1 gig of ram Software: Mac OS X.4, Pens, Mongrel (cluster), MySQL 5.0 Large file uploads are now a concern. The Rails (internal) site has 20+ users of which 3-5 are active on the system at a given time. Whats the best route for me to get a good performing system setup that can handle large

Hello everyone, I''ve got an app where I need to give the user the facility to upload a large-ish (up to maybe 10Mb) CSV file. I really don''t want to have to deal with idiots uploading porn, /dev/zero, and whatever else they feel I might appreciate - I want to eliminate everything that isn''t a valid CSV file as quickly as possible in the upload process. It''ll

I use dreamhost for my hosting provider, and I am working on app where it requires large files (max 10 MB) to be uploaded to the server. As of right now the fastcgi processes are configured with: FastCgiConfig -autoUpdate -initial-env RAILS_ENV=production \ -idle-timeout 120 -maxClassProcesses 5 -killInterval 300 My problem is that I try and upload a file via the web that is around 5 MB

Hello, I have a few models -- book, cd, dvd -- for which I''d like to have an abstract base superclass to hold some common stuff. That abstract class, I was thinking, would inherit from ActiveRecord. Didn''t work, though, and looking around, I found this: <http://wiki.rubyonrails.com/rails/pages/HowtoMakeAbstractModel>

Hi guys, I''m here again with a problem. I have a rails app called brewed. It''s located /home/user/brewed. My lighttpd.conf is located at /home/user/lighty. When I execute lighty on port 80 with: /usr/local/sbin/lighttpd -f /home/user/lighty/lighttpd.conf rails seems to work fine. If I type www.mysite.com/main/index on my browser, the page comes out well. I have my files
