similar to: Can Win32 service more than one rails request at a time?

Hi, I found this article http://cyll.org/blog/tech/2006-08-09-themongrelcomet.html on mongrel and COMET very interesting. I ran the code, and it worked just as Christopher explained. The one thing I don''t understand is why mongrel can only handle 1 connection at a time. I thought that mongrel used a thread per connection. It appears that each registered handler can only handle 1

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

Hi list, I''m seeing a couple of issues with Mongrel. I''m running FreeBSD 6.1 and have previously been told that there are known conflicts between this and Mongrel, yet I hope these issues will be resolved with time. I''m overloading Mongrel with httperf on my local workstation. Mongrel is started directly with the mongrel_rails command and there is only one mongrel

Hello, I am running in to an error trying to run mongrel. The server starts but then trying to access any url in my application throws this error: calling Dispatcher.dispatch uninitialized constant RailsHandler::Dispatcher ./script/../config/../vendor/rails/activesupport/lib/active_support/dependencies.rb:477:in `const_missing''

I wrote an x-sendfile thing for the railshandler to get mongrel to catch the response header and stream out files from an application I''m writing but I''m pretty sure that zed said he''d built in x-sendfile somewhere already. I couldn''t find it, could someone lead me to it? Does mongrel work with SSL? If not is anyone interested in having someone write in SSL

This is a super quick announcement for a new Mongrel plugin called mongrel_console. It was inspired by a request from Tobias L?tke who wanted to tail out logs while Mongrel was running. What mongrel_console does is combine the Rails script/console with Mongrel so that you can control a mongrel server while using script/console. Sounds weird but it''s quite awesome for development

Hi, I''m halfway developing a tiny plugin that allows people to scrub flash video files. I''ve got my plugin setup to monitor a directory /movies. Whenever a .flv file is requested within that directory, some stuff should happen, if not, the request should be processed as usual. I don''t know how to do the latter.. require ''mongrel'' require

Hello I''ve a client which send this request to a mongrel HTTPHandler : res=Net::HTTP.post_form(URI.parse(''http://localhost:3000/test''),{"a"=>1,"b"=>2}) But in the handler I can''t read the parameters one by one, I can read the entire String only : class Serveur class MyHandler < Mongrel::HttpHandler def process(req, resp)

Zed, Very cool, finally got around to playing with StatusHandler and StatisticsHandler. One thing that was missing that I wanted was insight into _what_ the RailsHandler was working on, and what was queued up while it sat in single-threaded mode -- ie., the current list of requests. W/ the attached mongrel.conf, I hacked the RailsHandler to keep a hash of active requests, and spit that out

Hey all I am working with a technology standard (specific to the commercial print industry) by which each element within the workflow has bi- directional HTTP messaging. As each side needs a http server, I thought I could either: a) use a gem plugin to modify the behavior of mongrel b) subclass Mongrel::HttpHandler In short, its xml messaging between two points; each with a HTTP client

Greetings! I could use some advice on which version of BackgrounDrb to use in my current situation. I''ve implemented the initial, single-process multi-threaded version in a previous site, but have no experience with the new version. Current situation is as follows. The application involves personal health information and so has very stringent session management requirements. My

I''m setting up a Rails app for a client that uses Windows. I''m getting this error: c:/ruby/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/mongrel-0.3.18/lib/mongrel/rails.rb: 32: uninitial ized constant Mongrel::HttpHandler (NameError) from c:/ruby/lib/ruby/site_ruby/1.8/rubygems/ custom_require.rb:21:in `re quire'' from c:/ruby/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/mongrel-0.3.18/bin/

Hello, Just for further reference in case of someone else want to do the same : I wanted to write a mongrel for a CGI app : [[[ require ''cgi'' require ''foo'' cgi = CGI.new if !cgi[''uri''] || (cgi[''uri''] == '''') Foo.error "URI argument is required" end uri = cgi[''uri''] user =

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 Zed ! I''ve experimented a simple but limited performance tweak in the mongrel rails loader. With the following apache 2.2 mod proxy loadbalancer setup : # Redirect all non-static requests to cluster RewriteCond %{DOCUMENT_ROOT}/%{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f RewriteRule ^/(.*)$ balancer://mongrel_cluster%{REQUEST_URI} [P,QSA,L] We can assume that mongrel is called only when the

Hi all- I''m running mongrel with a tiny HttpHandler that hooks into a larger library I''m working on. I''ve run into a snag with trying to debug with it in that I''m not entirely sure how to get the exception logs of errors that are raised. All I get to stderr is this: Fri Dec 22 17:16:14 -0800 2006: ERROR: Couldn''t find Models::Contact without

I''m trying to run an external Ruby script from my Rails app. To do this i''m using this function def fork_with_new_connection(config, my_class = ActiveRecord::Base) pid = fork do begin my_class.establish_connection(config) yield ensure my_class.remove_connection end end Process.detach(pid) end Then, within my controller I do this:

This on Ubuntu testing with the default ruby1.8 package, RubyForge current gems, mongrel...this look familiar to anyone?? andre@andre:~/rails_apps/depot$ mongrel_rails /usr/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/mongrel-0.3.13/lib/mongrel/rails.rb:44: uninitialized constant Mongrel::HttpHandler (NameError) from /usr/local/lib/site_ruby/1.8/rubygems/custom_require.rb:21:in `require'' from

Hi folks, I have a problem with a storage web service our group wrote using Mongrel::HttpHandler We have a consistent problem when using http PUT to this service when the data is larger than about 4 GB. The web service actually retrieves and processes the data, but the clients hang - the TCP connection is still in the ESTABLISHED state on the client side, but the TCP session no longer exists on

I''m looking at writing a Mongrel handler that mimics the behavior of the Apache mod_put [1]. It allows for the streaming upload of very large (GB) files; it also supports resumable upload. Before I get too involved, I''d like to ask if my reading of the mongrel source code is correct, i.e. what I want to do isn''t currently possible. Looking at the class
