We are *days* away from the official 0.3.13 release, which will be followed quickly by 0.4 code named Enterprisey Edition 1.2. This latest pre-release update closes off the last of the annoying bugs, and adds one very nasty feature people should check out before we release. Read about Katanas below. ** This release doesn''t have win32 yet. That''ll be uploaded Monday. ** WHAT

Hello Everyone, Francois Simond inadvertently found a way to replicate a rare but deadly bug right as I was working up the official release of Mongrel 0.3.13. This bug only happened to a few people, but thanks to the wonderful fuzzing tool Apache Bench[1] he could replicate the slow select starvation people were seeing. TESTING This bug is now fixed in the current pre-release, and I''d

Hello Zed ! Do you knows or plan a way to spawn mongrel processes on demand ? I''m studying options to build an affordable but solid shared hosting solution. You wrote something very promising in your "NEXT STEPS", A combination of the ''"mostly C version'' and the mongrel_cluster replacement would be an elegant method to save much RAM on servers (until

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, I just found something weird for mongrel with static files. Performance endlessly decreases if mongrel serve static files from simultaneous requests : Here is the test setup: Ruby on Rails Mongrel (tested with 1.3.12.4 and 1.3.13-pre installed today) Ubuntu dapper, compiled ruby 1.8.4. http client : while true; do ab -n 1000 -c 30 http://localhost:3000/ 2>/dev/null | grep

Yeah I just noticed that the latest mongrel gem for win32 doesn''t have the proper dependency for ''daemons''. This of course causes the require to fail. Any chance at getting this fixed for future gems? :) Thanks Josh Ferguson

Hello, maybe someone can help with backgroundrb. I''ve written an application, which makes use of backgroundrb. Everything works fine on my development machine, but it crashes on my production server. Something seems to be wrong with backgroundrb, but I don''t know the cause. All I get is the error message attached below, which is extracted from the production.log. I

Hi, I have Apache (2.2) setup to proxy requests through to Mongrel (0.3.12.4) for a Rails (1.1.2) application (on ruby 1.8.4). The setup is great, but I''m experiencing some nightly failures. I thought I''d post here before digging in too deeply, but it looks like Rails is going into lala land and Mongrel can''t recover... Seems like everything gets all backed up in

Hi, I am a rails and ruby nuby :-) How do you pass data between different controllers and views? I have a page ( a quote) that I am editing url ....quote/edit/6 6 id the current id. I then go to a catalog (url....catalog) to add an item to my quote (I do this via a line_item file that the quote reads) I now want to go back to the quote. I have tried this <%= link_to ''Back to

Gem drives me daft sometimes. It gives you this wonderful ability to specify a platform for a gem, but forgets to provide a command line switch to select the platform. Politely it asks you, which is all very well when you are installing on one machine interactively, but no good at all on a cluster of 15 machines from a Capistrano script. Is there any way to get gem to automatically select the

Hi, After following the excellent tutorials in the Agile Web Development with Rails book, I was able to get my webservice working pretty much perfectly :) I can access it via SOAP and XML-RPC and look at service.wsdl to find the API. What I can''t do however is get the API for the XML-RPC call. It fails with : Internal protocol error: NilClass is not a valid input stream. It must

Alright, this time a small announce going out to *just* the mongrel list so I can get some early testing. There''s a new pre-release of 0.3.13.4 out that includes the win32 version of the gem. ** WIN32 USERS SHOULD INSTALL THIS AND TEST.*** ***** BUT NOT ON PRODUCTION SYSTEMS. ****** As usual, you install it with: sudo gem install mongrel --source=http://mongrel.rubyforge.org/releases/

Hello, I don''t know if this is really relevant anymore because a new version is about to be released it seems, however I''ve been trying to run mongrel 0.3.12.4 on a development server in development mode (simply with mongrel_rails start). I try to access the server and the first page (static file) loads, but then the server dies and I get this in the logs. I''m

Hi Zed or anyone that is also looking at Mongrel, Just want to report something that, although doesn''t crash mongrel, is rather annoying. I am running the latest Mongrel 0.3.13.3 - ruby version on cygwin (yeah, poor me). When I start mongrel_rails with ActiveRecord::Base.allow_concurrency = true in environment.rb, I see a lot of "Error sending file

Hi List, first of thank you Ezra for BackgroundRB. Very cool plugin indeed! This is a public service FYI. In case you are running postgres as your database backend and you are seeing the following errors in your backgroundrb.log: ActiveRecord::StatementInvalid: NoMethodError: undefined method `async_query'' for #<PGconn:0x22ed648>: You are using the postgres-pr adapter

I see that allow_concurrency is set to false by default. What are the risks and what can I eventually gain by setting it to true in terms of application speed ?

In a previous email you wrote this: Glad you''re getting some use out of the plugin ;) ActiveRecord does have some issues with threading and concurrency that can sometimes cause that error you are seeing. Open up your script/backgroundrb/ start file and comment out the following line: ActiveRecord::Base.allow_concurrency = true Make sure you do that up in your main app script folder

Hey all, Has anyone out there got Mongrel deployments working with Capistrano? I''ve had a crack at setting it up, and I''ve found that after a deployment (with updated symlinks) that a mongrel restart does not pick up the new deployed site. It seems to me (in my linkted experience) that the HUP that is sent to mongrel does not re-evaluate the ./current symlink that Cap puts in

Hello Everyone, Mongrel is getting closer and closer to being a rock solid release. My goal is to release 0.4 as "production ready" by Canada on Rails. Please report any problems or suggestions you have. There won''t be any major features or improvements just fixes and code reviews to repair any found bugs or security concerns. People interested in Mongrel should look at
