Hello, I''m a total newbie, so please forgive my ignorance. I am trying to port an application from java to ruby. In order to do that, I need to put the object containing all the business logic into something like application scope. The nicest solution would be just to have an application wide hash, where I can put all kinds in of objects. Where and how would I instantiate such an

Hello, maybe someone can help with backgroundrb. I''ve written an application, which makes use of backgroundrb. Everything works fine on my development machine, but it crashes on my production server. Something seems to be wrong with backgroundrb, but I don''t know the cause. All I get is the error message attached below, which is extracted from the production.log. I

Hello to all, I am entirely new to Ruby and also to Ruby on Rails. As far as I understand, Rails builds its model according to the a specified table structuree in in the database. However, most of my applications, are for the most part (except some backend CRUD stuff) not database centric. They do a lot of calculation for the user. So, how can I create a model, when no database is needed,

Hello, maybe someone on this list can help me. I am trying to implement a sort of long database search. In order inform the user about what''s happening, status messages should be displayed to the user while the request is working. e.g. - starting search process - currently searching through database A - found 10 results - currently searching through database B - found 25 results -

Hello, this is killing me: i can''t find a way to let idle sessions expire after a certain period of time. If they don''t expire, they will pile up until there''s no more memory available. Please, can anybody give me a hint? Basically, all I need is a hash or list with all the sessions in DRbStore. Greetings Michael Kastner

Hi, we still have the problem in that the Ferret Drb server dies on us sometimes. Looking through ferret_server.out and we come accross this: deadlock 0xb7261cb0: sleep:F(1012) - /usr/lib/ruby/1.8/drb/drb.rb:566 deadlock 0xb71d8654: sleep:F(409) - /usr/lib/ruby/1.8/drb/drb.rb:566 deadlock 0xb723f3e0: sleep:F(7) - /usr/lib/ruby/1.8/drb/drb.rb:566 deadlock 0xb72607c0: sleep:F(11) -

Whenever I tried to start mongrel_rails with the upload progress script, it would die with the following error: /usr/local/lib/ruby/1.8/drb/drb.rb:837:in `getaddrinfo'': getaddrinfo: No address associated with nodename (SocketError) from /usr/local/lib/ruby/1.8/drb/drb.rb:837:in `open_server_inaddr_any'' from /usr/local/lib/ruby/1.8/drb/drb.rb:860:in

Hi, all- I started playing with RSpec in a new Rails app. I''ve installed the plugin and bootstrapped it, and run ''script/rails_spec_runner'' (not rails_spec_server as the website currently reads, btw) in a separate shell, then in another shell I run ''script/rails_spec'' and get the following: /usr/local/lib/ruby/1.8/drb/drb.rb:837:in

Hi All, I''m using Backgroundrb as a general purpose long-running-task back-end (upload processing, email sending, etc), and it''s been a great solution. However I''ve recently run into some some intermittent connection issues that have me baffled. I''m running on apache2/fcgid and the problem occurs in both devlopment and production mode. The problem seems to

Hi all! We use the DRB-Server Backend and are getting strange DRb::DRbConnErrors lately. It started with: too large packet 687865856 (druby:/10.0.0.10:9010) /usr/lib/ruby/1.8/drb/drb.rb:573:in `load'' and later only this one: premature marshal format(can''t read) (druby:/10.0.0.10:9010) /usr/lib/ruby/1.8/drb/drb.rb:580:in `load'' Do you have any ideas what that

I was just trying to use acts_as_ferret with DRb and filter_proc, without much success. My guess is that this isn''t possible because there''s no way to send the proc to the DRb server, correct? Person.find_by_contents("jonathan", :filter_proc => proc {}) causes an exception when using DRb (DRb::DRbConnError: DRb::DRbServerNotFound). I can work around this by

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

I want to use DRb within my Rails app. Right now I''ve got a very basic class: class PaymentGateway cattr_accessor :ssl_config, :host, :port def self.gateway @@gateway ||= new end def process(amount, card, type = :auth) @biller.process(amount, card, type) end def set_card(user_id, number) @biller.set_card(user_id, number) end protected def initialize

Hi, Sorry if this is a stupid question! I used to have a site running on Merb 0.1.0. When running as a cluster, it would automatically start a drb process to co-ordinate the upload progress monitoring. Since uploading to 0.3.7 (a bit of a jump!), the drb process hasn''t started automatically. I seem to start one if I run merb -s 32323 manually, but when I do check on a file

Greetings, I''m certainly :-) too thick, but after reading Ferret and AAF''s documentation I''m still wondering if I really need a DRb server in production. At the moment, the planned structure for production mode is a single server running the app with Apache and fastcgi; as far as I know, Ferret is multithread-safe, isn''t it? So, is a DRb server required to

The problem with getting DRb to luanch on reboot is the same problem causing some people to ahve trouble getting mongrel clustersw to come back up on reboot. The problem is the PATH. ON many new RH distributions running SELinux, /usr/local/bin is not added to the PATH until reboot is complete. Therefore, those of having installed ruby in /usr/local/bin run in to issues. SO, hoping to save

Hello List, For a small project I''ve been using ''ruby script/spec -X spec'' to execute my specs. Now that I added ZenTest on it, found that the test takes longer to run due the complete load of test environment. Since autotest uses ''script/spec -O spec/spec.opts'' as the command, I decided to add --drb to spec.opts Using --drb or -X, spec_server is

(Sorry if some people see this twice. I originally posted this question from ruby-forum.com, but didn''t realize that the Ferret forum was a mirror and that I actually wasn''t a member.) Anyway, I''ve read all the documentation I could find, and read most of this forum, but I''m a still a little confused on running a ferret DRb server. All the examples seem to be

I''ve installed the ferret gem. I installed AAF as a plugin into my vendor/plugins directory of my project. In development environment my searches work just fine, without any problems. For production I configured the ferret_server.yml file with correct information about the machine my DRb server is running on. I start the ferret server with the following command: ruby script/runner

Hi all, We''re attempting to use Ferret with the DRb server at the moment, and it doesn''t work, at all... = Executive Summary The DRb server process keeps on calling the remote index to the DRb server process... Which means DRb is calling itself, and itself, and itself, until Ruby kills the Thread with a SystemStackLevel error. = The excruciating details... # Mongrel is
