similar to: cluster::restart vs. stop/start

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 wanted to be able to specify in my /etc/rc.conf file whether mongrel_cluster should be enabled and the mongrel_cluster_config file for the init script, so I wrote this simple rc.d style script. Just throw it in /usr/local/etc/rc.d/ and do a chmod +x /usr/local/etc/rc.d/mongrel_cluster.sh To enable the script, add mongrel_cluster_enable="YES" to /etc/rc.conf and optionally add

Hi Y''all, Just a quick note announce an update to mongrel_cluster. Changes: - ''mongrel_rails cluster::restart'' now calls ''mongrel_rails stop'' and ''mongrel_rails start''. ''cluster::restart'' now accepts the ''force'' argument instead of ''soft''. - Added ''.conf'' as

It appears the spawner in Rails 1.2 will do Mongrel clustering. I''m curious what this means for mongrel_cluster. They appear to overlap in features quite a bit. I don''t think the spawner uses a config, so that''s one difference. Will they be different enough? I only ask because mongrel_cluster could, theoretically, be made extinct if the spawner script has all the same

Hello all... I know its been a while since the last one, but a new prerelease is available with a gratuitous increase in version numbers! gem install mongrel_cluster --source http://mongrel.rubyforge.org/releases/ This one has some new features in it that need to be tested on all unix platforms. Please run --clean and cluster::status on every *nix you can find. I run linux so the rest are up

Hello, I''ve been trying (unsuccessfully) to hack my mongrel_cluster to re-ststart in an alternating manner. Specifically, this soluiton: http://blog.carlmercier.com/2007/09/07/a-better-approach-to-restarting-a-mongrel-cluster/#content Which means I an call to mongrel_rails cluster::restart to do this: mongrel_rails start 8001 mongrel_rails stop 8001 mongrel_rails start 8002

I''m running the latest mongrel (1.0.1) and the latest mongrel_cluster (1.0.1.1) on FreeBSD 6.1. When I use capistrano to try to stop or restart my cluster I get this (partial) output: ps: Process environment requires procfs(5) And my Mongrel processes haven''t stopped. Any ideas? Thanks, Jamie

Hi y''all; A quick note to announce the release of mongrel_cluster, a gem_plugin for Mongrel. This plugin provides commands for managing multiple Mongrel processes behind a reverse-proxy server and load balancer. To install: gem install mongrel_cluster Configure (use -h to options): mongrel_rails cluster::configure Start: mongrel_rails cluster::start I''ve posted a quick

Hi, I''m trying to setup my mongrel clusters to start on boot. I have followed the instructions under the "On Boot Initialization Setup" section at http://mongrel.rubyforge.org/docs/mongrel_cluster.html. When I try to start it up, I get the following error: me at mybox.com: sudo /etc/init.d/mongrel_cluster start Starting all mongrel_clusters... !!! Path to log file not

I''ve installed pen and mongrel with mongrel_cluster (as gems) on Debian sarge. I can run everything from the command line fine including starting from the /etc/init.d/mongrel_cluster script On boot though mongrel_cluster fails with this msg: /usr/local/lib/site_ruby/1.8/rubygems.rb:204:in `report_activate_error'': Could not find RubyGem mongrel_cluster (> 0) (Gem::LoadError)

If this was in the docs, I''ve missed it. How can I have multiple mongrel clusters on a server? All the documentation that I am seeing seems to assume that I am only running one cluster.

I have installed mongrel and mongrel_cluster fine and have them running great with my app. I tried using the init.d script provided with mongrel_cluster 2.1 to start it up on boot but it doesn''t. mongrel_cluster_ctl works fine for me by hand and so does /etc/init.d./mongrel_cluster start. I am on Debian so I installed the service links with sudo update-rc.d mongrel_cluster defaults. And

background: One of our developers is just getting started with Capistrano, just getting together a rudimentary deploy.rb, copied from one of our contract developers who is just getting started a bit too. I''m the systems manager and a complete Rails and Ruby newbie (who, by the way, cannot thank Zed Shaw enough for mongrel and Bradley Taylor enough for mongrel_cluster :-)

Hi all... Hopefully this is the last prelease. If people on non-linux systems could post back any problems with cluster::status, I''d appreciate it. Install with: gem install mongrel_cluster --source http://mongrel.rubyforge.org/releases/ Note: This is only an update to mongrel_cluster and not Mongrel or other gems. Details about what''s new (if you missed the first

I posted this to the rails list before by mistake, and only later realized that there is a specific mongrel list. Uff, I got lost. I had mongrel_cluster 0.1working fine, even with capistrano (my own hack). Then came mongrel_cluster 0.1.1 and I tried to set it up, but somehow I messed up things and nothing worked anymore. So here is what I did: on production machine: (debian linux, rails 1.1)

Hey folks. Sorry for the SUPER long email but if you''ve been experiencing the same problems with restarting your mongrel cluster with Capistrano, then I have two solutions that have worked for me and I''m pretty sure will for you as well. THE PROBLEM I was having trouble restarting my clusters using Capistrano. I''ve seen this come up before on the mailing list and

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

Hello all. I''ve recently installed the 0.2.2 pre-release of mongrel_cluster to try out the new --clean option. However, after installing, when I give a simple "mongrel_rails" command, the cluster::status command is not listed. The error I receive when I do try and run the full "mongrel_rails cluster::status" is... ERROR RUNNING

Hey y''all: mongrel_cluster provides management tools for running Mongrel behind a reverse-proxy/load balancer. It is an extraction from Rails Machine, a deployment service and Ruby library that simplifies Rails application deployment. This release fixes bugs and adds a Capistrano task library. Changes: -changed pid file format to include port -only write configuration options

Hi everyone, I''ve been working with Mongrel, Mongrel_cluster and Apache and it is great. However, I can''t get mongrel_cluster to start at boot time. I followed the instructions from http://mongrel.rubyforge.org/docs/mongrel_cluster.html (On Boot Initialization Setup) and mongrel_cluster does not start after rebooting the machine. I made sure that the shebang line is correct and
