Hey folks. Sorry for the SUPER long email but if you''ve been experiencing the same problems with restarting your mongrel cluster with Capistrano, then I have two solutions that have worked for me and I''m pretty sure will for you as well. THE PROBLEM I was having trouble restarting my clusters using Capistrano. I''ve seen this come up before on the mailing list and

Hi everyone, I am going crazy over here! :) I just want to be able to use --clean with my mongrel_rails cluster::start command. I''ve upgraded to mongrel_cluster 1.0.1.1 and mongrel_rails 1.0.1. my config file is in /etc/mongrel_rails/config.yml and contains: --- log_file: log/mongrel.log port: 8000 pid_file: /var/run/mongrel_cluster/mongrel.pid servers: 2 address: 127.0.0.1 environment:

Hello, Thank you for your development of Mongrel, great job. :) I am using mongrel_cluster, but I have a problem where my rails application name includes a "." such as mydomain.com, which causes an error when generating the PID file for mongrel. I have attached below a diff of the current working copy in the trunk and the changes I made to overcome this problem. I kept your

Hi, I am using mongrel for a long time... But just now I see a problem. I am running 3 instances using mongrel_cluster and nginx as a reverse proxy. When I start the cluster I have a memory usage of 20MB per instance... In the end of the day this usage is something about 230MB for each instance. It should be a memory leak? Thanks for the help. -- Fernando Lujan -------------- next part

Hi, I have an application which is dying horrible deaths (i.e. segmentation faults) in mid-flight, in production... And of course, I should fix it. But while I find and fix the bugs, I found something I think should be different - I can work on submitting a patch, as it is quite simple, but I might be losing something on my rationale. When Mongrel segfaults, it does not -obviously- get to clean

I wanted to show a Rails site to someone so I set up Mongrel and it ran fine, This is my mongrel_cluster.yml, port: ?80" environment: production pid_file: log/mongrel.pid servers: 4 Now, after going back to Apache/Tomcat I can''t get the Mongrel site up and running again...? Any suggestions? (When I run Mongrel, I stop Apache first) Jim

I''m using the mongrel_cluster recipes for Capistrano as laid out by codahale.com and the new ed. of the Agile Development book, but I''m having problems on restart and stop: I can start: [root current]# mongrel_rails cluster::start Starting 3 Mongrel servers... And I can see 3 processes running: [root current]# ps aux | grep mongrel mongrel 1947 0.0 8.2 24684 10776 ?

Hello all... I know its been a while since the last one, but a new prerelease is available with a gratuitous increase in version numbers! gem install mongrel_cluster --source http://mongrel.rubyforge.org/releases/ This one has some new features in it that need to be tested on all unix platforms. Please run --clean and cluster::status on every *nix you can find. I run linux so the rest are up

I''m trying to use the Ferret DRB server to avoid concurrency issues when using multiple mongrels. I can successfully add and edit data on my index via the DRB server, however, when I search the index, I get the following error: DRb::DRbConnError (DRb::DRbServerNotFound): /usr/lib/ruby/1.8/drb/drb.rb:1647:in `current_server'' /usr/lib/ruby/1.8/drb/drb.rb:1709:in

Hi Y''all, Just a quick note announce an update to mongrel_cluster. Changes: - ''mongrel_rails cluster::restart'' now calls ''mongrel_rails stop'' and ''mongrel_rails start''. ''cluster::restart'' now accepts the ''force'' argument instead of ''soft''. - Added ''.conf'' as

We''re running Ferret and acts_as_ferret in our production environment. We have multiple mongrels talking to a single index on a separate (virtual) server over DRb. This is working ok for now, as our index updates are fairly infrequent. I''m concerned with the lack of rendundancy/scalability in this layout. Our index won''t get too big - maybe 100k indexed objects, each no

Hi, I''m trying to setup my mongrel clusters to start on boot. I have followed the instructions under the "On Boot Initialization Setup" section at http://mongrel.rubyforge.org/docs/mongrel_cluster.html. When I try to start it up, I get the following error: me at mybox.com: sudo /etc/init.d/mongrel_cluster start Starting all mongrel_clusters... !!! Path to log file not

Hi everybody, I have installed mongrel and mongrel cluster in a new linux box .... at the end of the day I was able to lunch mongrel (mongrel_rails start -e production) and all is working fine with. However, when I tried to set a mongrel cluster the command mongrel_rails cluster::start get the following output : starting port 8000 starting port 8001 starting port 8002 But when I lunched the

Hi, Im a newbie to ruby and rails. I installed mongrel using the command: sudo gem install mongrel --include-dependencies When i try to start mongrel with mongrel_rails start -d, its throwing the same error as it did to you: /usr/local/lib/ruby/site_ruby/1.8/rubygems/custom_require.rb:32:in `gem_original_require'': no such file to load -- http11 (LoadError) from

I''m playing with the mongrel clustering, and am having a problem getting 2 mongrels to start up reliably. This should be a pretty simple cluster, with just 2 instances running. My mongrel config (mongrel_cluster.yml) looks like: cwd: /deployment/installed/myapp/current log_file: log/mongrel.log port: "8000" environment: production address: 127.0.0.1 pid_file:

Hi all, I am out of my head here... I have a 3 node cluster with 10 mongrels running on each. When I deploy, I break all the mongrels every time. I have tried just about everything. I can restart my mongrels without a hitch manually, it''s only when I use cap deploy. Maybe I am missing something here... so if I can get some help it would be appreciated. The errors are the typical mongrel

I blogged about some of the problems with aaf in production (http://www.jroller.com/BrightCandle) yesterday but inspired by the poitive response I thought I would share the perceived problems and discuss some of the potential solutions to help newcomers and make aaf work as if by magic just like Rails does. All of these problems boil down to one simple problem, running acts as ferret in a

Hey y''all: I''ve added some new stuff to mongrel_cluster. Give it try and let me know if it works for you. * Added ''--clean'' to cluster::start to force removal of the pidfile before trying to start the cluster member. This is useful for recovering from unexpected process death. * Added ''--only PORT'' to cluster::* to support running a

I am going to bet this is a mongrel issue,because this doesn''t happen under webrick. Anyway, I was able to get fckeditor: http://www.fckeditor.net/ to work under rails: http://www.joshuamcharles.com/xhtml/fckrails.php i even saw the part about adding "1. Adding a YAML configuration file. For example, create $(RAILS_ROOT)/config/mongrel_mime.yml with the contents: xml:

First off, a big thank you to Zed and the development team for mongrel and mongrel cluster. I''ve deployed it for two apps (through an apache 2.2 proxy) and it''s amazing how much snappier everything is. Previously we were using lighttpd and lighttpd-fastcgi proxying through apache 2.0, which was turning into a hassle for lots of reasons, most notably the ruby fcgi
