Hello Everyone, Been head down with personal stuff, but I wanted to shoot out this email saying that I''ve collected the list of volunteers and decided that I''d just hand the keys over to them and see how they do. The list of people I have so far is: Ezra Zygmuntowicz <ezmobius at gmail.com> "Kirk Haines" <wyhaines at gmail.com> "Wayne E. Seguin"

Hello Guys, I''m reviewing the code for 1.9, and forgot about this when we first spoke on this subject. The current way we stop threads is using Thread#raise to spread StopServer exception, which will not work as expected in 1.9. 1.9 will treat raised exceptions as #kill, like JRuby does, so the worker threads will not finish serving the client and _then_ exiting, but will be

Hey so, People are asking about Mongrel Ruby 1.9 compatibility. Isn''t the point of 1.9 for library developers to have time to get ready for 2.0? It''s not like 1.9 is a production release. Evan -- Evan Weaver Cloudburst, LLC

Dear Mongrels, The same questions keep coming up over and over on the list, which is ok, but not really optimal. If we added a wiki to the Mongrel site to handle FAQs, what wiki should it be? Required features would be: * Spam protection * Doesn''t look shitty I would probably spring for Trac (and also migrate the bugtracker) if noone else has opinions, but I''m sure some of

Hi Zed, I checked in a pure-Ruby URI classifier to Mongrel trunk. Ola''s Java port of the TST had some bug, and I don''t think it''s necessary in the first place. The Ruby classifier is around 25 lines instead of the 400-odd lines for the C extension and the 200-odd for the Java extension. It uses a Regexp which is perhaps shady: @matcher = Regexp.new(routes.map do

Hello Guys, I''ll like to suggest a small release fix before we start doing big changes: platform fixes. Current we''re setting MSWIN32 (mswin32) as platform for Windows gem, but we should be using Gem::Platform::CURRENT instead (i386-mswin32 as current Ruby windows implementation). Also, the jruby/java platform need to be defined. That change will ease the compatibility path

Zed, I purchased your book and was reading through it. On page 25 it states: "Mongrel will give precedence to the parameter values in the config file over those in the command line." I was wondering why this is not the other way around, preference given to the command line options. Thanks, ~Wayne

Hi All, I''m hosting with MediaTemple who are currently using 0.3.3 of mongrel on their GridServer. My rails app has an image upload facility whereby if you upload a large image (e.g. 5Mb) mongrel crashes. I''ve requested an upgrade to the latest version of mongrel but don''t believe that''s going to happen too soon. I''m not getting too much

I''m trying to get a rails app running with this configuration: Mongrel, Apache 2.2, mod_proxy load balancer and Rails 1.1.6 error I have a rails app on another server working with (apparantly) the same configuration and it runs fine so I''m stumped. I''m wondering if anyone has any insight into the error I have pasted below. It seems to be one of those errors that

Guys, Just for fun, I tried to see (I know, a silly way to test it) how much overhead we have calling the C functions of the extensions. the benchmark script and the results: http://pastie.caboo.se/128646 The naive C extension: http://pastie.caboo.se/128647 I compared 1.8.6 (VC6 and mingw builds) against a fresh checkout of ruby trunk. What I understand from that is 1.9 is slower than 1.8

Hey folks, I''m falling behind in my Mongrel duties and seriously need to recruit an enterprising individual to take on the patch queue and help push out a new release with some minor fixes. The goal would be to just get patches that are currently languishing, pull them together, put them in the source, write some tests to try them, and then one slight design change. If this works out

I''m trying to figure out a possible memory leak problem I have in my application. I''ve tested both with mongrel and webrick and the problem remains. So I think it''s not a mongrel problem, but I''m posting here to see if anybody can help me. The RAILS application is quite simple, no special plugins ( no RMagick that has the memory problem ),

Time for some all time pimpage folks. Me and Matt Pelletier wrote a small PDF book on Mongrel entitled: "Mongrel: Serving, Deploying, and Extending Your Ruby Applications" since we really wanted you to know what it was about. It''s published by Addison Wesley Professional, has just over 100 pages of goodness, and is available for $14.99 at: http://safari.oreilly.com/0321483502

Hey all - I''ve got a question that I haven''t seen addressed anywhere and was wondering if anyone has put any thought into it or not... Here''s my setup... I have several *small* sites running apache/mongrel. Each has a single mongrel instance. Most don''t get any traffic (no one reads my blog :). And I was thinking, I could host a couple of more

Which web server does mongrel fair best with? -Ron

It would be an interesting topic. I bet there are quite a few. I just released one that 1/2 runs on Mongrel. http://direxionfunds.com It was released before it was _quite_ ready, but the last of the content is getting inserted today. I am still waffling on how I will leave it running longterm. Right now it uses a slightly modified version of the Mongrel http parser with EventMachine to front

Hello. I have discovered that mongrel does not correctly take on all the groups of the requested user/group combination. It seems that while the specified user and group is correctly activated, all the other groups that are associated with this user are not enabled and the group permissions remain the same as the caller (i.e. root). This problem (and solution) is discussed in the Ruby Forum:

Hello, I''m running a Rails application which must sort and manipulate a lot of data which are loaded in memory. The Rails app runs on 2 mongrel processes. When I first load the app, both are 32Mb in memory. After some days, both are between 200Mb and 300Mb. My question is : is there some kind of garbage collector in Mongrel? I never see the two Mongrel processes memory footprint

Hi Guys, I?m getting this error with mongrel_cluster. I am able to start mongrel through mongrel_rails start but the cluster is not working. Initially mongrel_rails wouldn?t work but after I added $ORACLE_HOME and $PD_LIBRARY_PATH variables it worked but mongrel_cluster isn?t working still. The mongrel log file looks like below. Any help is appreciated. Thanks. -----------begin
