similar to: mongrel_cluster 0.1: easy mongrel clustering

Hi mongrel users! I just posted a bad-ass capistrano file that automates *everything* for setting up an apache2+mod_proxy_balancer and mongrel+mongrel_cluster -- including apache2 setups. It''s based off Coda Hale''s guide and all Bradley''s work at fluxura and RailsMachine (thanks Coda and Bradley!). It''s, well, bad-ass, if I must say so myself. My favorite

Hey y''all: mongrel_cluster provides management tools for running Mongrel behind a reverse-proxy/load balancer. It is an extraction from Rails Machine, a deployment service and Ruby library that simplifies Rails application deployment. This release fixes bugs and adds a Capistrano task library. Changes: -changed pid file format to include port -only write configuration options

Hi all... After a few months of slumber, I''ve booted mongrel_cluster out the door. Nothing is really new from the prereleases except some bug fixes. I imagine there will still be some issues with ''ps'' on non-Linux platforms. I''ll gladly take patches. Most of the new stuff is described here: http://rubyforge.org/frs/shownotes.php?release_id=12907 Let me

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

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

If this was in the docs, I''ve missed it. How can I have multiple mongrel clusters on a server? All the documentation that I am seeing seems to assume that I am only running one cluster.

I posted this to the rails list before by mistake, and only later realized that there is a specific mongrel list. Uff, I got lost. I had mongrel_cluster 0.1working fine, even with capistrano (my own hack). Then came mongrel_cluster 0.1.1 and I tried to set it up, but somehow I messed up things and nothing worked anymore. So here is what I did: on production machine: (debian linux, rails 1.1)

I''m looking for an easy way to have mongrel only serve dynamic railscontent, while letting Apache serve non-Rails content. Unfortunately,it seems that you have to segregate the static content in its ownfolder. That was also the case with the SCGI runner. I used thetrick outlined athttp://comments.gmane.org/gmane.comp.lang.ruby.rails/23347 to managethis. I was curious if a similar

Hi y''all, A prerelease of mongrel_cluster 0.1.3 is available for testing with the Mongrel 0.3.13 prerelease. This release contains bug fixes and adds a Ruby script for managing all applications on a server with a single command. To install: gem install mongrel_cluster --source=http:// railsmachine.rubyforge.org/releases/ Changes: * Suppress output from mongrel_rails. * Added a

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 all... Hopefully this is the last prelease. If people on non-linux systems could post back any problems with cluster::status, I''d appreciate it. Install with: gem install mongrel_cluster --source http://mongrel.rubyforge.org/releases/ Note: This is only an update to mongrel_cluster and not Mongrel or other gems. Details about what''s new (if you missed the first

It appears the spawner in Rails 1.2 will do Mongrel clustering. I''m curious what this means for mongrel_cluster. They appear to overlap in features quite a bit. I don''t think the spawner uses a config, so that''s one difference. Will they be different enough? I only ask because mongrel_cluster could, theoretically, be made extinct if the spawner script has all the same

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''m currently working on 4 different RoR apps all using mongrel cluster and each with their own config file in /etc/mongrel_cluster. I would like the ability to stop|start|restart a single app. Anyone working on something like this? I''d be happy to code it up and contribute this if there''s a need. Basically I would like this: sudo /etc/init.d/mongrel_cluster restart

Hi list, I have tried to reach Bradley (author of mongrel_cluster) by mail, but have not gotten a response. So I''ll try trough this channel: I have ''developed''[1] a small extension to mongrel_cluster that allows selective restart of any one listener in a configuration that contains more than one listener by using a command like mongrel_rails

Anybody know where to submit a bug for mongrel_cluster. Thanks _________________________________________________________________ On the road to retirement? Check out MSN Life Events for advice on how to get there! http://lifeevents.msn.com/category.aspx?cid=Retirement

Hello Mongrel Fans, After about a Month of busy work, bad computers, moving half my house across the country, and other dramas, I''m finally pushing out the next release of Mongrel. This pre-release has lots of little goodies and the start of some documentation that should get everyone primed for the big "Mongrel 0.4 Enterprisey Edition 1.2" coming real soon now. INSTALLING

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:

What''s the difference, architecturally between cluster::restart and cluster::stop/start (I haven''t looked at the code, which is kinda lazy of me to ask the question I know) If they aren''t very different actually, can I put a plug in for having cluster::restart do a "start" if something''s happened and mongrel is stopped for that configuration?
