Hi, I''m running a rails (mongrel) based web service behind an apache proxy, on windows 2003. Sometimes I see a POST in the apache log that returned a 404 but nothing about it in the rails log. It doesn''t happen every time, 9 out of 10 times it works just fine. The post (is actually a put) comes from a .NET application uploading a small xml-file. The log message in apache

Hi guys, I''ve been chasing a problem in my web-stack: Lighttpd -> Mongrel -> Rails, and found a problem with the interaction of Lighttpd and Mongrel. If a request takes more than 5 seconds, Lighty will retry it - and then the requests / responses get mixed up in Lighty and it returns a bad response to the client. Not good. I''m convinced that the problem is

Hi, im not sure if this is a mongrel or rails question, so im sorry if I got the wrong list. Is there anyway to turn off logging (in production.log) if a request comes from a given IP address. I use monit to watch everything, and I get tons of this in my log file: Processing AccountController#login (for 127.0.0.1 at 2007-07-31 14:06:28) [GET] Session ID: XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX

Hi Facebookers, Is there a helper or suggested approach for presenting validation errors on an fbml form? Something to translate rails error markup to fbml:error markup? thanks Joel

Hi all, I''ve been having problems with the apache 2.2-mod_proxy_balancer- mongrel setup. My setup is: CentOS 4.3 apache 2.2.3 (compiled from source) with mod_proxy_balancer mysql 4.1 ruby 1.8.4 mongrel 0.3.14 (I know I need to update but I think this problem is independent of the mongrel version) mongrel_cluster 0.2.0 rails_machine 0.1.1 I have apache setup as per Coda''s

Hi, I''m halfway developing a tiny plugin that allows people to scrub flash video files. I''ve got my plugin setup to monitor a directory /movies. Whenever a .flv file is requested within that directory, some stuff should happen, if not, the request should be processed as usual. I don''t know how to do the latter.. require ''mongrel'' require

Hi, according to the Facebook docs, you can add a uid to the fb_request_form_submit button which will pre select the user for the form. So you can do: <fb:request-form action="/my_tasks" method="POST" invite="true" type="MyApp" content="wants to invite you to xyz app"> <fb:request-form-submit uid="FRIENDID" />

I am trying to user XSendFile in my application. I have installed the plugin and in the environment.rb included this line XSendFile::Plugin.replace_send_file! but it is unable to read the files. Earlier i had used send_file but it increases the mongrel size and slows down the application. Any suggestions about how to make it work? -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.

So if I am using fbml,canvas & facebooker, can I do ajax calls? if so how? From reading it seems they support some sort of mock ajax, but I don''t really understand, can somone explain to me? If I cant do ajax, can I still do javascript? Can I use 3rd party libs like prototype & scriptaculous? thanks Joel

I think I must be missing something obvious on this one, but I can''t get past the initial "ensure_application_is_installed_by_facebook_user" in a rails app that I''m trying to put together. I''m running on edge rails with the latest Facebooker as a plugin. I''ve tried adding my settings to the environment configs and recently I tried the new yaml

I followed the tutorial from Coda Hale[1] on setting up Mongrel/Mongrel_cluster and Apache to move away from my current Apache+FastCGI setup. The mongrels are all working fine, and Apache is proxying all dynamic requests through to the cluster using proxy balance. Strange thing is now, that all my images in public/images aren''t loading at all, if I access them directly I just get a

Hi CentOS users I am running a forum with small video clips (from YouTube and others). I convert those Macromedia Flash videos with: $ mencoder example.flv -ovc xvid -xvidencopts bitrate=1000:autoaspect -vf pp=lb -oac mp3lame -lameopts fast:preset=standard -o example.avi I use mencoder RPM from Dag Wieers 1) Its very generic command line to convert videos. What would you improve? The size

Alright, it seems that I am having a bit of a problem with mongrel. My mongrel processes have been crashing pretty often and twice last night. I''m really not sure why, but I really need to fix it. I am running 0.3.13.3. Here is the mongrel.log file. Any ideas, things to look at, etc... is appreciated. Thanks, Carl PS, do all the broken pipe lines mean Mongrel is serving the static

Hi, I managed to get my own FLV videos working over the web: http://certik.github.com/record/ it plays in the opensource flash player (flowplayer), but I have to convert theora to FLV (you can use the script in the package above). My question is, does anyone know if it's possible to get theora itself working? I know firefox3.5 will be able to do it, but I am afraid that will be the only

If you are using facebooker as a plugin, you can now have all your configuration in one place, namely config/facebooker.yml. You can create this file with rake facebooker:setup. It is also generated when you install it as a plugin. It has a similar setup to database.yml with sections for each environment. You can also configure your ssh reverse tunnels. If you are upgrading, make sure to

While I could figure this out, I''m asking here first to see if anyone has already dealt with/created this. I''m running a mongrel cluster, running 4 mongrels on ports 8001-4. I''m using capistrano to deploy. And I''d like to use monit to check to make sure everything is running nice. I''d like to have monit restart only single mongrels if they fail, and

I am using mongrel_cluster with mod_proxy_balancer and would like to enable compression (assuming it improves throughtput) and limit file size upload. I configured mod_deflate and LimitRequestSize in Apache, but in my trials looks like the proxied calls bypass those directives (the conf goes below). Is there a way to get this? -- fxn # Adapt this .example locally, as usual. # # To be

Hi ! I''m no expect when it comes time to configure Apache. I just enabled page caching in my Rails app, and am now looking at making Apache serve the cached files instead of calling into Rails. I know Mongrel is able to serve cached files if it finds them, but I''d like Apache to do it. Looking at .htaccess, there is this section: RewriteEngine On RewriteRule ^$ index.html
