similar to: Pound + Mongrel = Easy RoR deployment

Fyi, here''s a write-up I just posted on deploying Rails with Mongrel(s) behind Pound: http://blog.tupleshop.com/articles/2006/07/08/deploying-rails-with- pound-in-front-of-mongrel-lighttpd-and-apache Rob

Finally! I''ve released Mongrel 0.3.13 OFFICIALLY to the public for better or worse. This release is pretty huge compared to previous releases. It''s got oodles of fixes, design improvements, hosting enhancements, win32 changes, and the release even works with the latest cygwin. Read all about it at http://mongrel.rubyforge.org/news.html GETTING 0.3.13 Most people do this:

Hi Everyone, So I''m finally going to sit down with a few of the guys and do an even comparison between some stuff proxying to mongrel (we ourselves typically use Big-IP or Zeus to Apache 2.2 to mongrels). If you have other pieces of software that you know about beyond, can you please let me know? Perlbal Pound Pen HA-Proxy Nginx TCPBalance Balance Balance NG TCPFork Apache 2.2

I was about to write a long post about how I couldn''t get request.ssl?to work in Rails behind Pound and Mongrel, but then I figured it out. In your pound.cfg file, just add: HTTPSHeaders 1 "X-Forwarded-Proto: https" Assuming you''ve got Pound working correctly with SSL, this will giveRails the header it''s looking for. If there''s any interest in a Debian

Hi All, I''m experiencing a problem when using pound with Rails. My set up is I have a machine acting as a load balancer running Pound. This listens on port 80 and directs requests with a particular URL to two backend servers both of which are serving my rails app using mongrel cluster on ports 9000,9001 and 9002. There is a problem with sessions even though I am storing the session data

Right now you can use either Pens/Balance/Pound to put in front of some Mongrels and it works really good (easy to setup too!). I got to thinking, would it be possible to mimic what Pens/Balance/Pound does in pure Ruby (yeah, I know the answer is yes)? I guess I''m looking for a starting point. Does one simply write an HTTP listener that then redirects the calls to Mongrel? Is

Hi Folks, There was an error in the Pound documentation at: http://mongrel.rubyforge.org/docs/pound.html Basically the documentation has a sample config that only configures one backend for one service, which isn''t what people want. You actually want *three* backends in *one* service. Please go check that your configuration looks like the current documentation. Thanks. -- Zed A.

So far, apache is the only server I have found that supports ssl client authentication. Pound can forward the client certificate so I could verify it myself. I couldn''t find any information on client auth with lighttpd. Litespeed evidently doesnt'' support it. I''ve been trying to use apache for the ssl connection and then pass the ssl env back to mongrel or lighttpd,

Hi, i''m using to ziya to display some graph. If i use it running mongrel as single instance all work good (very slow but work). If i try to use it with pound as htto proxy ziya charts wait forever for data...that never arrive. If i check the mongrel log it seemes to make queries on the database and retrieve data,but nothin appera. Anyone have an idea on how i can solve this problem?

Hi! I run a mongrel cluster with 6 mongrels in it. I want to monitor them individually for process hangs (and then restart them) and this is the solution I came up with: Here''s my configuration file for monit (/usr/local/etc/monitrc): [snipped relevant bits] ------ #check lighttpd process check process lighttpd with pidfile /var/run/lighttpd.pid start program =

Happy RailsDay! While everyone else was out having fun with RailsDay I spent my time wisely and wrote up tons of documentation for Mongrel and cleaned out some of the docs I''ll never write anyway. I also took the time to apply some nice patches from Jonas Pfenniger for easily setting up redirects in Mongrel. Some of the highlighted documents people will be interested in are: *

Is anyone using the setup described at the Rails blog? http://weblog.rubyonrails.org/2006/7/3/pound-makes-lighty-and-mongrel- play-nice I''m using it in production, and the only problem I have is the same as people have described in the comments over there, namely that Rails thinks all requests come from localhost. See http://isabont.com/requestinfo for the headers. Any

Hello, I''m experiencing a strange, but very bad behavior with Mongrel 0.3.13.4 and Pound 1.8. Every 6 hours or so one of our nine (not consistent on which one) application servers ( each one running several mongrel processes ) will start leaving lots of socket connections with pound open. This leads to "Too many open files" errors. I''ve set pound to close connections

For those of you using Pound with Mongrel, the latest dev release allows for the single line certificate behaviour that Jeff wrote the patch for initially. I''ll update the wiki to make mention of it once we''ve been able to do some testing with it.

Hi, I''ve noticed an issue (or what I think is an issue) with mongrel_cluster: in the config file, I tell it to store pid files in / tmp/ and when I start it they get saved there, but when I run restart or stop, it says it can''t find pid files. Problem being: it looks for pid files in /path/to/my/app/tmp/. Is anyone else aware of this? I have lighty forwarding to pound

Hello, I've been working on an * dialer application, whereby a requirement is that if no one answers the call, a message must be left on voicemail. I've been using the record(tmp.gsm) function with silence detection enabled to wait for the greeting to finish before speaking. However, on voicemail systems where you can interrupt the greeting with a pound (#) key to access your voicemail

some of my validation error messages contain a pound sign (the British currency, not #) however, this get''s shown as a question mark in the view. i can get round it by using the html reference (&pound;) instead of the literal character, but it seems a little counter-intuitive to handle this in the model... isn''t it view related? any suggestions? I''m developing

I''ve got a RoR app that will be going to production soon (in the next month or so) and would like to get some feedback on what kind of web server setup people have had good luck with. I''m looking for something that is: 1. Stable 2. Easy to setup 3. Secure (sorry but Windows is ruled out here) My deployment will either be on Fedora Core 5 or possible Mac OS X Server.

Hi, First, my thanks to Zed for including LiteSpeed in cgi.rb vulnerability report. Appreciated! I just got time to review ruby-lsapi code and test the vulnerability against LiteSpeed. I found that, in our latest ruby-lsapi release 1.11, lsapi_read() function returns Qnil when the end of request body has been reached. So, in theory, LiteSpeed should not be vulnerable to this attack. Our test

Dear all, I've used trixbox to compose a custom IVR, and I've defined the input of pound key(#) leading to the repetition of the parent announcement. But each time the pound key is pressed, file "dir-intro.gsm" will always be played. Can any one tell me the reason? By the way,if I want to modify the build-in IVR, which configuration file should be edited? Thanks in advance.
