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, 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)

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

Following the instructions on Hivelogic, everything works flawlessly on my Powerbook until I do the ''sudo gem install fcgi. I''m getting no-definition errors all over the place. Any thoughts how to resolve this? Example of errors: No definition for fcgi_s_accept No definition for fcgi_s_each No definition for fcgi_s_each No definition for fcgi_s_iscgi -- View this message in

If I browse to \myRoRApp, I get the "Welcome aboard" screen. I''ve done the ruby scripts/generate controller MyTest, and "Rolling with Ruby on Rails" tells me I should be able to browse to \myRoRApp\MyTest and see an error page, but what I''m actually seeing is a fastcgi config file! I have installed fastcgi, but apache can''t "see" the

I''ve followed the install the install guide on http://hivelogic.com/articles/2005/12/01/ruby_rails_lighttpd_mysql_tiger and it seemed to work. And I''ve been following the Instant Gratifiction guide in Chapter four in Agile Web Development with Rails book. I''m in terminal and I type - cd work (everything works fine) then rails demo (everything seems to work) then cd

Hi All, Just about to set up RoR on our server and was wondering what the ideal setup for RoR is these days? Apache 1? Apache 2? fCgi? Any guidance would be helpful! Thanks, -Adam

I just noticed something interesting (or not) about getting to my RoR app on the 2 browsers. I''ve tested it running Webrick or Mongrel_rails and get the same behavior. The app is at http://www.mydomain.com:myport#/app/list Specifying that complete URL works fine in both browsers. However in IE if you just specify www.mydomain.com:myport#/app/list I get page not found. In FF the URL

Hi there, I''ve a Rails app running on one of my shared hosting accounts. Everytime I log out from SSH, my Rails application shows this error message after 5-10 minutes: "Application Error (Rails)" Whenever I log back in to SSH with my account, my site is back to normal. I''ve Googled everywhere for days and tried all of these suggestions: - make sure

I''m working on my first little rails-application. It''s a rewrite of a gallery-script i once made (in PHP): http://notdotnet.net However - my rails-version is waaay to slow :( http://r.notdotnet.net/ I don''t do any heavy image-processing, I don''t have any killer-algorithms with a time complexity on O(n^n), and I don''t use any major hacks. The only

I have RoR running on lighttpd on RedHat Linux and every morning that I check the web page it just keeps waiting to refresh it forever, Firefox and IE never times out on any of the pages I try. Has anyone seen that happening to their RoR? I also removed lighttpd completely and just ran webrick but there was no difference. The linux box has a pretty old kernel 2.4.21-4, could that be the

Hello happy Railers, I used to develop with a local out-of-the-box Apache and load times were pretty slow (like a few seconds each page). "Well, it''s the price to pay for no compile / cache / etc..." I thought. Nonsense. Yesterday I installed SCGI, and now I''ve got the best of both worlds: rails development env uses my very latest modifications, while SCGI ensures I

This might be obvious to everyone but it is something that i haven''t been able to find an answer to. Do I need to have either scgi/fastcgi/cgi running on either lighttpd/apache for ruby scripts to work? If yes, why? I have installed the scgi server and i can get the service to run, i have also installed the following mod_fastcgi/2.4.2 mod_ruby/1.2.4 Ruby/1.8.2(2004-12-25) mod_scgi,

Just spent 40+ hours in two days deploying my app on Windows 2000. Not all the time was Apache/MySql related, but a significant portion was. What a nightmare that was. Unfortunately, the customer is dead-set on "standardizing" by using Windows. So, as I sat there between a Linux box and an AIX box working on this thing, I ran into problems, part of which were: CGI was slow (Dell

hello. i''d like to share some feelings of mine after a couple of *weeks* intermittent attempts to have rails applications working on windows (XP) with fastcgi performances under apache (2.0). i''d say the software stack i''m using now will be fairly common as more and more new rails developers will join the bandwagon. what is stunning me is the fact that, even if

Hello. Any help the community can give me will be greatly appreciated. I''ve got the server guys who administer my dedicated server working on my issue, but it''s been two days and they are still at square one. Let''s start with the history. I''ve been working with ruby for a month or so now, and am starting to get pretty comfortable with it. I asked my host

I''m trying to set up shared rails websites, so every user has its own public_html for rails scripts. I''m not really satisfied with the fastcgi approach (cgi scripts can sometimes be nasty security problems) so I''d like to try the another approach. (If someone knows a good tutorial on installing rails on FreeBSD including the fastcgi configuration that would be nice).

I''m having a huge memory leak problem with a rails application I''m developing! I first noticed that when running under webrick (via script/server) there was a fast memory leak.. several users using the app for a few hours would use 2 gig of memory!!! I searched the archives and found that some users found that it could be avoided by saying --daemon when launching webrick..

I''m trying to run rails on RHED (centos 4) by following this tutorial: http://wiki.rubyonrails.org/rails/pages/RailsOnRHEL and something is gone a bit astray during the install process that is not allowing lighttpd \ apache to run rails on the web. Since i''m running Centos, I should mention I''m NOT running SELinux. As it is, i''m at a total loss as to why

Anyone figured out how to get rails/fastcgi to run on Resin. I assume it would be similar to PHP, which there are directions here: http://www.caucho.com/resin-3.0/thirdparty/php.xtp One thing that confuses me is that it wants a server address: <server-address>localhost:8002</server-address> Apparently you start the php process, like this: php -b 8002 And then the PHP process
