Ok, I have checked in the first draft of rails win32 service into examples mongrel_rails_service is the controller, and the _svc script is actually the service. The controller uses Mongrel Commands as requested by Zed, but the service was simplified for debugging purposes, later will merge and refactor both files. The environment defaults to production, so if wanted to run it on other, you must

Hello Folks, This release of Mongrel should make the win32 folks go crazy. Thanks to Luis Lavena it supports a full service system for installing any Rails app as a service. This lets you start your rails apps from either the command line or the Service console. Stopping is still a bit problematic but we hope to have that solved in the next release. You win32 folks should probably send Luis

Hello Everyone, Just a small announcement for Mongrel 0.3.12.4 which fixes the following things: * Corrects the date format returned so that months are three chars only. * Fixes a problem where DirHandler wasn''t returning Last-Modified and Etag headers for unknown MIME types. * Implements a default mime type for anything it doesn''t know about, and lets you set it via an

Ok, this might sound bad... well, actually it is. I''m my rewrite of mongrel_rails_service and provide a uniform set of commands in the line of gem_plugin commands, found a few issues while stopping the service. Thinking that rails (1.1.2) was responsable, tested against my 1.0.0 rails app, both with the same results. Again, reverted to mongrel 0.3.8, when services was working ok, with

I''m doing another 0.3.7 release this weekend which will roll in changes from Luis for the win32 service, and some enhancements to the mongrel_rails Unix runner which makes it behave better with switchtower. There''s also a new document on setting up a proxy with lighttpd to do simple clustering on the site: http://mongrel.rubyforge.org/docs/lighttpd.html I''ll be

Hey, I did some pre-compiled gems for both Mongrel and win32 service, wrote some quick instructions, and threw everything onto a (Mongrel hosted) temp site. Please go hit: http://zedshaw.homelinux.org:3000/files/win32_howto.html And give the instructions a shot. Luis should have the stuff moved around and then we''ll have a nice clean install and set of instructions for all this. Any

Hey Luis, Just implemented the first cut at a graceful stop setup. It seems to mostly work except for a few hicups here and there which I''ll test out. I''ve tested this under OSX and will test on the other platforms soon. To use it take a look at the examples/simpletest.rb and see how I setup an "INT" handler to call HttpServer.stop. Hopefully this will help with

Hello Windows Users! I have finally got my new computer with it''s win32 build working and have just done the first pre-release for 0.3.13 that has win32 support. *** All win32 users should try to grab the pre-release and tell me if it works. *** You can install it with: $ gem install mongrel --source=http://mongrel.rubyforge.org/releases/ >From EITHER win32 or any other platform

Hi folks, I''ve been working on the plugins system this weekend and I think I''ve nailed it down. The system will basically be able to load gems that are configured right to be plugins. It''ll do it fairly dynamically and shouldn''t require any configuration from the end user other than to install the gem. Doing this though will involve a bit of surgery on the

Hi Everyone, Just a quick message to say that I''m holding back the 0.3.7 release so I can get this flexible plugin system going that we''ll need for the next step of loading user defined handlers and filters. What I''ve done is completely replaces pluginfactory with an alternative that lets you create simple classes like so: class Stop < Plugin "/commands"

I don''t think there''s a way to do that other than using a proxy (ISAPI_REWRITE) or just a server-side redirect.

Hi all, I''ve forwarded this from the Mongrel mailing list to see if anyone has any thoughts. In summary, Luis is hitting broken pipe errors on occasion when he tries to stop a service. In a later email Luis mentions that simply ignoring them might not always be the best idea, since sometimes the service seems to no longer respond, even though it still appears to be running fine.

This patch: - adds --prefix option to service::install in mongrel-service plugin - fixes bug with config values merging in the service - enables gemplugins in the service. Questions: - why the load_plugins command was commented out? It seems working for me. - why bin/mongrel_rails_service and bin/mongrel_rails_svc still in the main package? - a lot of code is duplicated in both versions

Hopefully that gets everyone''s attention. Evan Weaver has whined enough to make me do a release to change the requirements on the Mongrel gem so that it doesn''t need the cgi_multipart_eof_fix anymore. *************************** THIS ALSO MEANS THAT MONGREL WILL HAVE TO REQUIRE RUBY 1.8.6 OR GREATER! NO EXCEPTIONS! *************************** I know Debian guys like to hack

This release of Mongrel is coming at you with lots of very little but important features and fixes. The big highlights are: * Initial beginning of the plugin support that will let people write their own handlers and other things for Mongrel. * Timeout now works again but couldn?t find an alternative to the buggy Timeout class. * SwitchTower friendly signal handling for

Hello Folks, This is the big release of Mongrel that''s been in the works for a while now (well, like a week). It is chock full of changes and features, but mostly it syncs up the Win32 side of things, and validates that Edge Rails works without problems. It also features a more extensive and useful example of the GemPlugins called mongrel_config. First the usual stuff for people
