similar to: Toturial on Rails + LiteSpeed LSAPI

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

Hi, I am glad to announce that Ruby LSAPI extension 1.4 is released, in this release we mainly addressed two issues, one is that a worker process does not remain persistent if a request has been canceled in the middle, this is addressed in 1.4. Another one is that process manager may create a lot more worker processes than the value configured when there were too many canceled requests, which

Hi, We released Ruby LSAPI extension 1.5 to address a bug introduced in 1.4 that may cause small post requests blocking. If you are using LiteSpeed + Ruby LSAPI, please upgrade. Best Regards, -- George Wang LiteSpeed Web Server http://www.litespeedtech.com/

Hi, We released Ruby LSAPI 1.6 today to address a issue that some ruby processes can only be terminated with SIGKILL (-9). This is due to conflicts in signal handler between LSAPI and ruby. Upgrade is highly recommended for existing user of Ruby LSAPI + LiteSpeed.

Hi, If you have been using or evaluating LiteSpeed web server + Ruby LSAPI setup for Rails application, please make sure your are using the latest release, Ruby LSAPI 1.9 and LSWS 2.2.2. We have been fixing a few bugs that causes DB connection errors, incompatibilities with WEBrick/Mongrel and ruby process management issues, currently, all bug reported has been addressed in timely manner and

Fellow Rail users and developers, Right now the easiest way to run Rails is in combination with Mongrel. However, it may not be a good idea to expose Mongrel directly to the outside world in a high-load production environment. In-addition, Mongrel_cluster + proxy + load balancer have to be used even for a single server deployment making the unified setup more complicated than needs be.

Hi, For those who are waiting for our tutorial on LiteSpeed + Capistrano deployment in a Rails App cluster, please take a look at http://www.litespeedtech.com/support/wiki/doku.php?id=litespeed_wiki:capistrano Basically, you need to setup sudo permissions and add sudo "#{lsws_cmd} restart" to deploy.rb of your Rails application. Best Regards, George Wang

Apologies in advance if this ignites a war of comflicting opinions.... I''m a few days away from going live with my first RoR application. It is completely database centric and each user will have his own queries so cacheing will not really help. I have a dedicated linux server being built by my hosting provider and I need to tell them which webserver to use. The databse is MySQL

Yo Zed, Just curious -- what do you think of the LiteSpeed server? Is it better than Lighty? Does it (gasp!) also serve Rails apps like Mongrel? I think I read that LiteSpeed doesn''t have proxying support. Thanks, Joe __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Tired of spam? Yahoo!

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.

I''ve heard good things about Litespeed but all the documentation I''ve found doesn''t reflect the new 3.3 version. The older 2 and 1 versions are just so different. I''ve gone down the road with the old docs and it''s always a dead end. I''d be happy to pay or trade code or some kind of programming favors for some help in this area. I''ve

How do I debug Litespeed Server on Mac OS 10.5 with GDB? I haven''t a clue on how to proceed.

Hi! Searched a long time for this, but haven''t found an answer. I''m trying to make the user download a special file, no matter what mediatype it is (could be jpg, pdf or doc for example). My code right now is this: def download_path( _id = params[:id]) result = Philestructure.find( _id ) headers[''X-LiteSpeed-Location''] = "/downloads/

When using file upload with Safari and Litespeed server it often get stuck and it looks like it''s loading but nothing happens. What could be wrong? Firefox is better.

My personal showdown: Using Ruby on Rails: I was pretty productive right away. Documentation though for the Rails APIs and stuff is not as good as I''m use to in Perl (particulariy CPAN). No being critical, just saying the Rails documentation left me hanging more than once and guessing as to what I was doing wrong. Production deployment is a bit much. I''ve found using

Hi, I am having a bit of a problem with my app that is using mongrel. For a particular vendor we use, they are generating links that look like:

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: *

I''m a bit surprised I can''t find anything about this in the mailing list archives. Basically since Mongrel 1.0.1 I''ve had Mongrels fall asleep without any real cause. A deep sleep, actually more like a coma. The mongrel in question (I''m using a cluster of three) can not be revived. A cluster::stop, then cluster::start is nessesary. A ::restart would not

I''ve been reading, hearing, and looking at blogs that state Ruby on Rails is rather slow. Coming from a VB 6 world (thank you Microsoft for killing VB because VB.NET is NOT VB) I was always told that VB was a toy or too slow. Now, I''ll easily tell you that yes VB was not a great language. It had it''s share of warts, like a lot of other languages I might add, but

In May I had problem with mongrels suddenly consuming huge cpu resources for a minute or two and then returning to normal (load average spikes up to 3.8and then back down to a regular 0.2 over the course of 5 minutes, then again 1/2 hour later. or 4 hours later, no predictable rhythm). I posted to Litespeed forums because I thought the problem was there but didn''t get far. And a week
