Hi all, I''ve been spending quite a lot of time trying to install a decent RoR server on my dedicated server (Ubuntu 6.06 LTS), and now, everything works. However, the performances are not really what I had expected... I would like to know what you think about it. Here is my config: 2GHz VIA proc, 1Gb RAM, SATA-II HD. I have apt-got ruby 1.8.4, mysql5 and installed rails 1.1.4 by

Hello All I am trying to install 5 mongrel servers against my app. i am using Vista. I found this article on a website.. but am stuck on one point. here are some notes from article: Now enable the needed modules (url rewriting, proxy, proxy_balancer e proxy_http) by editing the httpd.conf file (under c: \Apache_Software_Foundation\Apache2.2\conf, if you installed Apache in its standard path).

I am using Apache2.2 + mod_proxy_balancer + mongrel setup and my mongrel.conf file(for apache is like this) 2 3 <Proxy balancer://mongrel_cluster> 4 BalancerMember http://127.0.0.1:9000 5 BalancerMember http://127.0.0.1:9001 6 BalancerMember http://127.0.0.1:9002 7 </Proxy> 8 9 <VirtualHost *> 10 ServerAdmin rags at

I have an Apache2.2 SSL setup with vhosts on my server with fastCGI running several applications. The applications all work except IE hangs any time the network traffic isn''t perfect. I have very few problems with firefox. When I run native Mongrel on a port and point the browser to that port it runs much much better. When I try pointing Apache to that port either using ProxyPass or

Our group has several web apps developed in ColdFusion, PHP, and Rails. The ColdFusion and PHP apps are on an older server, and the Rails apps on a new server. Ideally, we''d like them all to share the same server. Our current setup for the Rails server is Apache2.2 with mod_proxy_balancer and mongrel_cluster. We''d like to have specific directories be processed and served by

Hi- We just finished our app and I tested for performance with httperf. Our setup is browser -> apache2.2-> mod_poxy balancer-> mongrel cluster -> 3 mongrel servers. I have noticed that the total request per second is is about 7.5. When I increase the no of mongrel to 5, it inches up to 8 req/s. My question is how bad or good this number is? We are on a old dell 2400 machine

Hello All Mongrel Users, For the unintiated, Mongrel is a web server that runs Ruby web applications really fast. Read http://mongrel.rubyforge.org/ to get find out more about it. This is the Iron Mongrel release. It is the result of trying to trash Mongrel until it can''t move and then fixing anything that comes up. The work was done on EastMedia''s and VeriSign''s

Gang- We are getting ready to launch our ROR application; the last item remaining is the deployment platform. For testing, we had used Apache + MOD_FastCGI. I am not that impressed with it; sometimes it has strange effects. For example, when we start the application, for about 5 minutes or so, the app is very unstable and it gets better over time. My questions is .. should I go with (1)

Hello all, new convert to Mongrel here and am trying to get things going. Right now I can start mongrel up just fine and it seems to work great, but I''m trying to use the nifty console I heard about and can''t seem to get it going. `mongrel_rails console` Cannot run the console script: unititialized constant RailsConfigurator Any ideas? I just installed everything yesterday

Hi mongrel-users, Just a heads up for apache2.2 mod_proxy + mongrel + rails users: If you have a line like this in your source (because you''ve done a poor job maintaining your code and reading the API docs): render ''foo'', :layout => ''bar'' You might expect it to do what it says... but it actually sets deprecated_status and ends up setting

I''m newbie to mongrel, I''m not able to config mongrel_cluster in order to host multiple web sites added/remove as apache VirtualHost.

Cheers, I''ve just published a blog post about scaling Rails with Apache 2.2, mod_proxy_balancer and Mongrel. This way you do not need another proxy server or load balancer for Mongrel. Just use Apache 2.2 and mod_proxy balancer. http://blog.innerewut.de/articles/2006/04/21/scaling-rails-with-apache-2-2-mod_proxy_balancer-and-mongrel Jonathan -- Jonathan Weiss

Hello everyone- I am considering using Mongrel and I have read this list pretty extensively. I know that the Apache/mod_proxy_balancer/mongrel approach is the preferred one right now, with Apache serving the static content via mod_rewrite and such. However, in my hardware arsenal, I already have an old and trusty LocalDirector, which I would be inclined to at least try first as a

I''m trying to setup a mongrel cluster. I''m relying on information collected from a number of sources but I''m relying heavily on http://mongrel.rubyforge.org/docs/apache.html. I have noted that a number of sources mention the necessity of having the mod_balancer module installed in Apache. However, my primary source makes no mention of this; but instead, mentions only

Happy Holidays, I am new to RoR and have just run through the install, which well seemed to be vaquely documented as some ''Do this'' type of thing on the http://rubyonrails.org/download page. download gem setup.rb gem install rails rails path/to/your/new/application cd path/to/your/new/application ruby script/server and then ( drumroll ) .... Follow the instructions on

Our Mephisto install kills Mongrels and causes Apache to pound the CPU. This started when we moved to Apache+mod_proxy_balancer+Mongrel. Here''s what we know: The following things are working OK, except when used in the combination listed above: mongrel, mongrel_rails, MySQL, Apache, mod_proxy_balancer. We believe these are all OK because we moved five other Rails apps to this

Basically, the way puppet installs things things with /usr/bin/apt-get -q -y -o DPkg::Options::=--force-confold install <package_name> fails due to authentication WARNING: The following packages cannot be authenticated But if I do it from an ssh console normally, using apt-get install <package_name> it works fine without issues.

Hi, I run a medium-sized website that uses mongrel/rails in the following configuration: -frontend reverse proxy to a cluster of 7 app servers -each app server runs apache 2.2 with mod_proxy_balancer that balancers the requests out into a mongrel cluster of 35 servers. -each mongrel is version 1.0.1 the mongrel cluster config looks like: port: "1620" environment: production address:
