similar to: How does lighttpd/fcgi/rails work?

I have the fastcgi.server part of my lighttpd.conf like this: fastcgi.server = ( ".fcgi" => ( "test" => ( "socket" => "/tmp/test1.socket", "bin-path" => "/home/paulbarry/public/dispatch.fcgi", "min-procs" => 1, "max_procs" => 2 ) ) ) When I start

I started an earlier thread about this ... Someone suggested a different version of LightTPD, since the version I was using had some known issues with FCGI. Well, we''ve upgraded to LightTPD 1.4.11 and the problem is still happening. We have Rails running under fcgi (one process) under LightTPD. This, in turn, is proxied to by Apache. This is on a test IP, so only a few people should

Ever since I moved my dev environment from my Powerbook to my new MacBook Pro, I cannot run the lighttpd webserver - it starts and immediately crashes out with an error (see below) saying a file does not exist. I''ve checked the file does exist. WEBrick works without any problem. Has anyone else experienced this problem? John:~/web john$ ruby script/server => Booting lighttpd

I finally got around to installing lighttpd on my mac for dev work, followed the instructions at http://hivelogic.com/articles/2005/12/01/ruby_rails_lighttpd_mysql_tiger When I go into my rails app and type "./script/server" I get the following errors: baggio:~/work/teore pergesu$ ./script/server => Booting lighttpd (use ''script/server webrick'' to force WEBrick)

Hi, as i''m aware that there are not too many out there still using dispatch.fcgi && lighttpd (rather moving to mongrels && nginx ) , i''ll try to make this simple: how do i limit a file upload size in lighttpd? am i supposed to do this via the app? i''ve racked the internet for a while now, and my mind is heavy and stumped. i''m running

I''ve been trying to add a basic file upload feature (just based on the Rails Recipes example), but I find that it only works with the webrick server and not my lighttpd 1.4.11 server. I''m running Rails 1.1.2 on OSX. The upload silently fails with both firefox and Safari, even with the useragent hack and with any size of file/image. My lighttpd config is pretty standard as

Hi, I followed the instructions I founded here : http://developer.apple.com/tools/rubyonrails.html I can run a small RoR application with webrick, everything is fine in this case. But when I try to use lighttpd i can access http://localhost:3000/images/rails.png for example but not a dynamic page. In the latter case I dont get any page, the browser is just waiting infinitely. If I force

I am trying to set-up lighttpd and rails to work with fastcgi. Here is what I am currently using for the virtual host definition. I have gotten this from various websites. Sorry about the formatting I can''t seem to control it with Thunderbird. var.wholesale = "wholesale" $HTTP["host"] =~ "^wholesale" { server.document-root = "/var/lighttpd/"

Hi, I''m getting the following error message when I try to start lighttpd: BEGIN ERROR: $ script/server => Booting lighttpd (use ''script/server webrick'' to force WEBrick) => Rails application started on http://0.0.0.0:3000 => Call with -d to detach => Ctrl-C to shutdown server (see config/lighttpd.conf for options) 2006-04-24 03:29:39: (mod_fastcgi.c.1022)

Hi, I have a Rails application sitting on my computer that works just fine with webrick. I would like to try to serve it locally with lighttpd I followed the instructions on the hivelogic site for installing lighttpd http://hivelogic.com/articles/2005/12/01/ruby_rails_lighttpd_mysql_tiger Then I looked on page 457 in the Agile Rails book for instructions about configuring the rails app for

Hello list, I''ve been developing a rails app using webrick as my server. I''m trying to change my server over to lighttpd as I am now attempting to deploy on a host that uses lighttpd. I had an older version of lighttpd installed and could never get it running correctly with my app. Preparing for deployment I decided to get lighty working and after poking around a bit I

I have a problem with lighttpd on OSX. Everything builds fine (and webrick runs just fine) but lighttpd barfs: edward-kenworthys-computer:~/Development/Ruby/pricematic/trunk edward$ script/server => Booting lighttpd (use ''script/server webrick'' to force WEBrick) => Rails application started on http://0.0.0.0:3000 => Call with -d to detach => Ctrl-C to shutdown

I''ve finally gotten lighttpd working for my production instance (SUSE 10.0 with SSL). (Had to install the fcgi dev toolkit, the SUSE 10 ruby-fcgi rpm, and the fcgi gem. I''m not positive all 3 were required, but that is what I did.) Now the devel instance of my app is broken. I''m not sure how to fix it. Previously I was using WEBrick for both devel and production.

Hello everyone, I?ve been working with Ruby on Rails for about 2 months now and have really enjoyed the ease of use of it. I?m only been doing development on it so I?ve been using WeBrick. Recently, I have built a server running Debian Linux, with ruby 1.8.2, rails 1.0.0, lighty 1.4.3, and Mysql 5.0.18. I used WeBrick to generate a lighttpd.conf file for me, I changed the paths in the

I am trying to get Rails running through Lighttpd, on a Suse 10 box running Rails 1.0.0 and Lighttpd 1.4.10 I followed the instructions in the wiki (http://wiki.rubyonrails.com/rails/pages/Lighttpd) but keep getting the same error: linux:/etc/lighttpd # lighttpd -f lighttpd.conf 2006-02-27 12:32:17: (mod_fastcgi.c.997) execve failed for:

I am having trouble uploading files through a form when using Apache (production) or Lighttpd (development). The odd thing is that when I force script/server to load Webrick, the upload works just fine on the same code-base. When it fails, the upload just sits there forever. Some browsers eventually return an error code, others spin for a long time... Anyway, it never recovers. The file is a

Hi all, I just updated lighttpd from 1.4.8 to 1.4.9 and it now refuses to start with the following error: 2006-01-24 23:12:24: (mod_fastcgi.c.989) execve failed for: public/ dispatch.fcgi No such file or directory 2006-01-24 23:12:24: (mod_fastcgi.c.1015) the fastcgi-backend public/ dispatch.fcgi failed to start: 2006-01-24 23:12:24: (mod_fastcgi.c.1019) child exited with status 2

Hi guys, I''m here again with a problem. I have a rails app called brewed. It''s located /home/user/brewed. My lighttpd.conf is located at /home/user/lighty. When I execute lighty on port 80 with: /usr/local/sbin/lighttpd -f /home/user/lighty/lighttpd.conf rails seems to work fine. If I type www.mysite.com/main/index on my browser, the page comes out well. I have my files

Hi Everyone- I am trying to setup lighttpd on a CentOS 4.2 box after having problems with getting it to work on Apache. I am hoping some fresh eyes can see any errors below. The log files are useless as they just say server stop and server start. When I create an app in rails I can see the rails welcome screen, but everything else comes up 404. Here is my lighttpd config pointing to

I have been testing various web development solutions on an unloaded Mandrake Opteron 150/1Gb box. I am a little confused about my results on lighttpd with apachebench.
