similar to: Lighttpd scgi error on windows

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

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) ?

[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 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.

I have installed instant rails and configured it http://instantrails.rubyforge.org/wiki/wiki.pl?Getting_Started I can get typo and webrick to work on webrick localhost:3000 but cant get anything to work with scgi.

I''m trying to get an application running in a sub directory of a site using apache and scgi. The application runs fine with webrick. I have a site. Let''s call it "mysite.org". There is a variety of content on that site. I would like to add a rails application to that site. Let''s call the application "myapp". So we will have urls of the form

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

Hello. Since two days I am trying to set up two rails-apps on a vserver-host so that I can access from work ;-) I tried all I can imagine and what Google/MSN teached me: FastCGI, SCGI, Lighttpd, Apache, Alias, Vhosts,.... But nothing really works. I am on Debian 3.1 with Ruby 1.8.4, Rails 1.1.2, FastCGI 2.4.0, mod_fastcgi 2.4.2, ruby_fcgi 0.8.6, ruby_gems 0.8.11, Apache 2.0.54, Lighttpd

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

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 trying to run instant rails on windows xp SP2. I can get the cookbook and typo sample sites to work with webrick but not with scgi. When i click the start with scgi i get a blank dos window and typing www.mycookbook.com returns Firefox can''t establish a connection to the server at www.mycookbook.com. This suggests that apache is not even running even though the green light is

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} &&

Is anyone using scgi with their rails app on an OS X machine running Tiger? I found a nice launchd tutorial for lighttpd, but I can''t figure out how to modify it for scgi, and I would like to have the whole mechanism come up on reboot, as this is a production machine. I''d be grateful for any pointers... Shelby

Hi. I am trying to run RubyOnRails with scgi on RedHat ES4. I want to direct all access of "/" to index.html I do have DirectoryIndex in httpd.conf. But after I run RubyOnRails, the configuration stopped working. I tried many things, but it doesn''t work. Like: RewriteRule ^$ index.html [QSA] RewriteRule ^/$ /var/www/public/index.html [R] If I access /index.html, everything

Yesterday, our of nothing my server went down... Rails application failed to start properly Imediately i started checking my logs and found quickly that something was wrong with the dispatch.fcgi or its function. I use FCGI, and it had been working perfectly with Apache 2.0.55, MySQL 5.0, Ruby 1.8.2 and Rails 1.1.2. What really got me wondering was that I did nothing. One day it worked

Hi, I''m on Apache 2.0.54, Linux Fedora Core 2 with Plesk. I installed a Rails application previously on the box using SCGI and it works fine; even now. I''m trying to get a second app online and it fails. Same config, except for the SCGI runner ports of course. It looks like the error comes from the fact that the mod_rewrite loops. WHY ??? BTW : I have to put this app

Hello, If i''m planning on using apache2, should I use FastCGI or SCGI. I have tried both and have both working in non-production. I would just like to know which is perfered. Robert Boone -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.

Or does anybody prefer fastcgi/fcgi? I''m using webrick for development, but plan on using scgi when I switch to production (because it appears to be an update to fastcgi, and I couldn''t get fastcgi working anyhow). thanks csn __________________________________ Yahoo!

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.
