similar to: scgi and rails startup on OS X Tiger

Hi, I have recently upgraded to Tiger and needed a way to launch the rsync daemon on system-startup. Tiger includes the launchd which is responsible for launching daemons. I have made my config file available to download for anybody who is interested in doing the same: http://www.designsolution.co.uk/resources/rsync/ Perhaps this may be added to the resources section of the rsync site?

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

[ERR][17968] Handling client: can''t convert nil into String Hi, We decided to go with SCGI + Lighttpd for Rails at our company and had no problems with the initial setup. Everything ran fine and was fast. However, problems occurred when we tried to rebuild Lighty with SSL capabilities. With this build, even with SSL off in the config file the application fails on the first request.

I''ve run into a problem on one of my development machines. I''m trying to run multiple rails apps on one dev machine that runs Windows. Problem is that is seems that I can only run one scgi_service at a time, meaning that only one of my apps will function at a time. Anyone know how I can get around this, other than getting a *nix box (which I should have soon, hopefully) ?

Hi, I have followed the instructions below to get lighttpd and scgi working on windows. http://wiki.rubyonrails.org/rails/pages/HowToDeployWithLighttpdOnWindows When i typ in the following address http://127.0.0.1:9999/ i get just a blank white page. In the scgi.log file i have the following error but dont know what the problem is [INF][3552] Running in production mode on 127.0.0.1:9999

Hi, While learning Ruby and Rails, I decided I just as well learn Linux along the way... It''s been fun, but I''m stuck at one of those exasperating moments... I hope someone can help me :) I installed Ruby 1.8.4 on Fedora Core 4, then Rails, then lighty, and then SCGI. I used yum to install lighty... and it already comes with mod_scgi. I created my first application in

I am going through the process of transferring my MVC skills from Java and LAMP to RoR. If someone wanted beocme master/expert at both FastCGI and SCGI what would be the setup on windows XP? My thinking is to use: -XAMPP+SCGI on c drive -WAMP+FastCGI on f drive -lighttpd +SCGI or FastCGI and bind different servers to different IPs as I can set IPs via loopback interface to my networkcard.

Or maybe I crash it and don''t know why. Here is the setup: I have an action that will crash my debian sarge development box using fcgid, fastcgi and scgi running with Apache2, as well as fastcgi running with lighttpd, every time. Here is the action from the controller: ------------------- def crashme @orders = Order.find(:all, :order => "`id` ASC", :offset

I''ve managed to get Rails working using Apache->Lighttpd->SCGI. Restarting everything is really difficult. This appears to be the process: - stop apache - stop lighttpd - stop scgi - make sure scgi still isn''t running (it sometimes does) - if it is, kill it - delete all session files (they often cause permission errors) - start scgi - start apache - start lighttpd - cross

Hi ! I have Lighttpd and SCGI clusters running my applications. I self-host at RimuHosting, but I find that my processes die sometimes. I''m not a Linux administrator, so I simply want some kind of watchdogging process to ensure my stuff keeps on truckin''. I found Watchdog::Process on CPAN, but it won''t install. There''s some kind of error. Launchd would be

All of the documentation for scgi_ctrl says to run it from your Rails app directory, and I can''t get it to run from a single command line like you would in a system startup script. I''ve tried: scgi_ctrl -c /www/myapp/config/scgi.yaml start ...but that just errors out unless I run it from within the root of my rails app (/www/myapp). -- Posted via

Hi ! Following the manual, section 2.6 describes how to replace the restart task. Since I''m using Lighttpd and SCGI, I did the following: desc "Restart the web server" task :restart, :roles => :app do sudo "cd #{deploy_to}/#{current} && scgi_cluster stop < #{deploy_to}/#{current}/config/.password" sudo "cd #{deploy_to}/#{current} &&

I can''t figure out how to compile php with fcg enabled. I found a website which gives an example of how to write options in configure http://scoops.totallyrule.com/articles/2006/02/01/mysql5-ab-package-and-php5 So I wrote ./configure --prefix=/usr/local --program-suffix=5 --enable-fastcgi --enable-discard-path --enable-force-cgi-redirect --with-mysqli=/usr/local/mysql/bin/mysql_config

Hi Shelby, No prob, You are having trouble b/c you don''t call @festival.valid? before this line: if !(@festival.errors.invalid? :name ) # => true if name is invalid I wasn''t clear about it in my post, but ActiveRecord::Errors#invalid? doesn''t actually do validations. It just looks at the associated errors object (which is empty if validation hasn''t

Hi, I''m new to RoR and am trying to get it up and running on my iMac Tiger (intel). I was able to get it working with the built in server and am now trying to get it working with apache 1.3 I''m stuck on getting a universal binary for mod_fastcgi.so. or source code to compile it myself. Has anyone been able to get RoR to run successfully with this configuration?

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.

Hi, I''ve had several reports of people with problems using lighttpd 1.4.1 or 1.4.2 with my recently released SCGI Rails runner. I''ve been testing these versions of lighttpd and I see the following problems: 1. When run with -D option, a CTRL-C will often times give a segfault. This is linux for me, any others? It most often happens right after try an SCGI handled request.
