similar to: Pass env var from Apache to Mongrel?

Hi, I''m on Apache 2.0.54, Linux Fedora Core 2 with Plesk. I installed a Rails application previously on the box using SCGI and it works fine; even now. I''m trying to get a second app online and it fails. Same config, except for the SCGI runner ports of course. It looks like the error comes from the fact that the mod_rewrite loops. WHY ??? BTW : I have to put this app

Hi Yan, If you just need to access the env var which doesn''t change like SERVER_NAME, you should be able to access it directly using "request". However, if your env var is dynamicly set, you can try my way. I use mod_rewrite to proxy to Mongrel. In your httpd.conf (you need mod_header) RequestHeader set X_YOUR_ENV your_value And in Rails access it by

But I need to make these available here: https://www.mydomain.com/myapp and https://myapp.mydomain.com/myapp are on a second server using ProxyPass and ProxyPassReverse to

two problems, pls help...I''m under big pressure at work to fix this! I''m having trouble getting scgi and lighttpd running on windows - here''s what I did: On Win XP, I installed ruby, rubygems, and setup my rails app. All works fine with webrick. I then did: gem install cmdparse and gem install highline (as required for the scgi_rails gem according to

I''m looking for an easy way to have mongrel only serve dynamic railscontent, while letting Apache serve non-Rails content. Unfortunately,it seems that you have to segregate the static content in its ownfolder. That was also the case with the SCGI runner. I used thetrick outlined athttp://comments.gmane.org/gmane.comp.lang.ruby.rails/23347 to managethis. I was curious if a similar

Hello. Since two days I am trying to set up two rails-apps on a vserver-host so that I can access from work ;-) I tried all I can imagine and what Google/MSN teached me: FastCGI, SCGI, Lighttpd, Apache, Alias, Vhosts,.... But nothing really works. I am on Debian 3.1 with Ruby 1.8.4, Rails 1.1.2, FastCGI 2.4.0, mod_fastcgi 2.4.2, ruby_fcgi 0.8.6, ruby_gems 0.8.11, Apache 2.0.54, Lighttpd

Hi ! Has anyone got any tips/tricks on running a Productized Rails app on DreamHost ? Specifically, I get this in my error.log: ----------- [Mon Oct 10 11:39:46 2005] [error] [client 69.70.225.69] mod_rewrite: maximum number of internal redirects reached. Assuming configuration error.

For some users, request.remote_ip always return nil. According to the RAILS''s help: REMOTE_ADDR is the standard but will fail if the user is behind a proxy. HTTP_CLIENT_IP and/or HTTP_X_FORWARDED_FOR are set by proxies so check for these before falling back to REMOTE_ADDR. HTTP_X_FORWARDED_FOR may be a comma- delimited list in the case of multiple chained proxies; the first is the

I just switched my rails app over to production mode, couldn''t get it working, switched it back to development mode, and now nothing gets outputted in the browser.

Hello, I am configuring apache 2.2 to serve my rails app through mongrel at the root of my server. First, I redirect all http traffic to https with the following: ServerName emiliano NameVirtualHost *:80 <VirtualHost *:80> RedirectPermanent / https://emiliano #this server is only accessed internally </VirtualHost> Inside the <VirtualHost *:443> section, I have the following

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

Hi all, I''m currently trying to get Mongrel running my app whilst fronted by apache 2.2 in a sub-directory via https. A bit convoluted I''ll grant you but necessitated by existing systems. The pertinent parts of my httpd.conf: <VirtualHost 123.123.123.123:12345> #historic choice of random port number DocumentRoot /var/www/admin ServerName admin.example.com:12345

Does someone know how to tell mongrel_rails to read the public/system/maintenance.html file? -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.

Hi. I am trying to run RubyOnRails with scgi on RedHat ES4. I want to direct all access of "/" to index.html I do have DirectoryIndex in httpd.conf. But after I run RubyOnRails, the configuration stopped working. I tried many things, but it doesn''t work. Like: RewriteRule ^$ index.html [QSA] RewriteRule ^/$ /var/www/public/index.html [R] If I access /index.html, everything

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

I''m trying to get an application running in a sub directory of a site using apache and scgi. The application runs fine with webrick. I have a site. Let''s call it "mysite.org". There is a variety of content on that site. I would like to add a rails application to that site. Let''s call the application "myapp". So we will have urls of the form

I started the mongrel_cluster and tried to use the RewriteRule to forward the requests to proxy_balancer just as the http://mongrel.rubyforge.org/docs/apache.html said. When I visited my site from a remote computer, I always got the error messages "Forbidden, You don''t have permission to access / on this server." Finally, I added the "Allow from all" property (in the

I have recently setup some action caching in my Rails app and everything seems to be working fine. I am using file store pointing at /tmp/cache. The problem I am running into is that separate cache directories are being created for different domain names that point at the same server. For example mysite.com and www.mysite.com will have different cache directories. It seems like it should be easy

Hello list, Some time ago I was looking for apache (as non balanced proxy) + mongrel configurations. Almost everybody seemed to use similar approaches (one of these could be found @ mongrel.rubygorge.org docs) with mod_rewrite. I don''t use proxy_balancer because I don''t need it at the moment (my site has pretty low traffic). This is apache configuration that I''m using
