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

Hi, So thanks to Zed I was able to get lighty/scgi and a Rails app running. I know this might not be the best place to post this, but I guessed there may be several others with similar experiences here. So, the following step is to have several apps each in its on subdirectory. I tried the following to no avail: $HTTP["url"] =~ "^/tango/" { server.document-root =

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''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

All of the documentation for scgi_ctrl says to run it from your Rails app directory, and I can''t get it to run from a single command line like you would in a system startup script. I''ve tried: scgi_ctrl -c /www/myapp/config/scgi.yaml start ...but that just errors out unless I run it from within the root of my rails app (/www/myapp). -- Posted via

I have a ton of these in my Lighty error log: 2006-02-15 15:55:53: (connections.c.1383) Warning: Either the error-handler returned status 404 or the error-handler itself was not found: /dispatch.scgi 2006-02-15 15:55:53: (connections.c.1385) returning the original status 404 2006-02-15 15:55:53: (connections.c.1387) If this is a rails app: check your production.log And I guess it''s

I''m trying to setup my rails application with Light+fcgi. This is the error I''m getting when I try to start Lighttpd : ============ [getcapture@alpha getcapture]$ ~/etc/rc.d/lighttpd.sh start Starting Lighttpd 2006-04-15 11:27:24: (mod_fastcgi.c.1022) execve failed for: /home/getcapture/application/public/dispatch.fcgi No such file or directory [getcapture@alpha getcapture]$

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) ?

I''ve been trying to get lighty configured to work with Rails and I''m having quite a time of it. I have all of the following installed on a FC4 system: ruby-1.8.4 gems-0.8.11 rails-1.0 fcgi-2.4.0 ruby-fcgi-0.8.6 lighttpd-1.4.10 Before I tried setting up multiple apps, I just decided to try for a single app setup. I have the following configuration: ### begin config ###

I transferred a site from Lighty+SCGI to Lighty+Mongrel, and now I''m having problems with it becoming unresponsive. It works fine for about 10-15 minutes, but then attempts to access the site just stall forever. Nothing is written in any of lighty''s or mongrel''s logs. Here''s my lighty config: $HTTP["host"] =~ "www.xyz.com" {

I''m trying to get our app running on Lighty... I followed Ezra''s instructions: http://brainspl.at/pages/rails_stack... Currently the app runs fine with webrick, but with lighty I get 404 errors on everything. I found if I don''t edit the lighttpd.conf file to use absolute paths, it works fine. But this is not good for production because I need to run it with the -d

Hi! 1. I want to install Ruby and Rails on Red Hat... Any RPM available... 2. I am not able to install Fast CGI gem in windows environment... with Lighty.. I am getting following error: Pl. guide me to correct this error... Thanks Siva. C:\>gem install fcgi Attempting local installation of ''fcgi'' Local gem file not found: fcgi*.gem Attempting remote installation of

I''ve just spent a while chasing a false bug in lighttpd and load balancing among external fast cgi processes due to what I think is a documentation bug. Following the info on the wiki page <http://wiki.rubyonrails.com/rails/pages/LighttpdWithProcessScripts>, one would think that something like this works: fastcgi.debug = 1 fastcgi.server = ( ".fcgi" => (

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

Hi, I have an application running on Apache SCGI (Win XP). Once I run it in production mode (scgi_ctrl config -S -e production ) I''m getting stack trace instead of HTTP status 500 (Application Error) and the error is logged production.log. The application works fine without SCGI. Your help is highly appreciated.... Thanx /* production.log */ # Logfile created on Thu Jan 04 16:35:43

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

i had been trying for weeks to get fcgi to play right with apache. i finally got it working, but it''s far from stable. it was recommended to me that i should try using SCGI and that it is much easier to set up. being new to this stuff though, i''m not sure if there''s a lack of documentation or if there are some things that are just assumed and not known by a noob

I am running (testing) a noob-tube for myself as follows: Windows XP SP2 lighty ruby 1.8.x rails 1.1 scgi I have everything working fairly well, but with one minor exception: the actions that I have defined as follows are not found. class MytestController < ApplicationController def index render_text "Hello Nurse!" end def dilbert render_text "Dilbert

Hi, I''m trying to setup up a rails deploy environment. I get an error when start lighty in production.log undefined method `downcase'' for nil:NilClass /usr/local/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/actionpack-1.12.3/lib/action_controller/request.rb:17:in `method'' /usr/local/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/actionpack-1.12.3/lib/action_controller/base.rb:902:in `log_processing''

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,
