Hi there - I wanted to know if anyone has used Rails & PHP on the same production server and whether they''ve experienced any problems. I''m looking to install rails on our production soon, however I would like to know if there are any issues I need to be aware about. Many thanks, Jared.

Hi, After following advice from you good folks, I gave mongrel a try in a cluster design based on the example on the Mongrel website - and it worked right out of the box which is great - and it''s very fast :) I have got a bit stuck though. I have two MS Word files in /public/files/. I can pull back these files no problem but it isn''t sending a mimetype. I think I have two

Hi, I''m having great fun developing with Rails but I''ve come to a problem that I can''t quite figure out. I have an Order object that "has_many" order_lines. This works perfectly and I can see all the lines. The OrderLine object has an order_id field as well as product_id and amount. Now ideally I would want to do : order.orderline[0].product.name for

Hi, I changed my environmnet.rb to say PRODUCTION mode, however when I start up a server "ruby scripts/server" a) it runs in development mode (via the logs) - any ideas why? b) why does webbrick run - I thought by default now it was supposed to be lightty Tks -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.

Hi all, I've read a bit about fastcgi, and wondered if it might be an interesting solution for e.g. running php in a user-switched environment or running ruby-on-rails etc. But I wonder why nobody (searched on Google) seems to use CentOS with mod_fastcgi for Apache 2.x. And I also wonder why people actually using Apache 2.x and ruby-on-rails with CentOS did run a lighthttpd-fastcgi

Hi, I need a relatively simple image api for the app I''m writing. I need to copy photos, rename them, and re-size them to put them in a standard format. I tried using RMagick/Imagemagick, but the photos would be corrupted on re-size, so I''m looking for some suggestions. -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.

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,

Rails 1.0 on RedHat with MySQL It seems that my app stops functioning overnight [actually I am assuming that it is after a period of inactivity]. Googling around for solutions, it seems that it might be an issue with timeouts on the MySQL session. A suggestion I found was to a) increase timeout on MySQL [don''t want to do that]; b) add idle-timeout parameter to Lightty. So I

Hi all, as part of adopting Rails in my company I had to go through the hassle of setting up a Rails production environment on Win32 system since we mostly use MS SQL as our database back end and also because we mostly dealing with customers who become green-blue-purple as soon as you mention Unix/Linux and run for the door. I also need to mention that most of our web applications are internal and

I am wanting to one run instance of lighttpd, many many instances of mongrel. I also need ssl but only for one of my sites. I understand that Mongrel does not play with SSL so I am forced to use Lighttpd. I think that lighttpd only handles ssl or non-ssl on any given instance. Is there a way for me to accomplish my goal of one lighttpd with multiple mongrels and the occasional ssl connection? --

I have my code working on my local machine no problem, but when I upload to the server the RJS effects I have aren''t working. The server is running Ubuntu Dapper w/ lighttpd while on my local machine I''m using webrick. For kicks I shut down lightty and booted my app on the server with webrick and it works fine. So it''s definitely a lightty issue. Anyone else seen

Hi, Anyone know where i can find out more info on Reaper/Spawner. Currently, every time i add a new account on my production machine, i have to restart the whole server. After about 150 accounts, this puts a real strain on the server (it takes 3 full minutes before i can access any site on the server). I think reaper/spawner is my answer, but i am havving trouble figuring out how to use it.

Hi, Having googled extensively about storing money in Rails, it seems to be accepted that the best way is to store the prices etc in the smallest part of the currency so that you can use an integer i.e ?20 would be stored as 2000 pence. This is fine and I''ve made a nice pretty wrapper that outputs the price in the standard form for invoicing and what not - but here I''ve

Hi, I''m looking to rewrite an existing app in Ruby but it makes extensive use of URL paths. For example a site would redirect to : /Portal/foo/ and from this I could tell that ''foo'' was the site that did the redirect. Of course when I try this with Ruby I get "method not found" which is hardly surprising. I''ve had a quick look round google but

Hi, I''ve been doing more searching, and I''m kinda stuck on how to send back error messages to a SOAP / XML-RPC client if say for example the username and password they supplied were incorrect. Can anyone point me in the right direction? Cheers, Pete -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.

Hi, I''ve got an interesting one here :) I have a form with three fields : serial_number initial surname now, if serial_number is entered, it must be between 1 and 64000. If it''s filled in, the other two fields must be blank. If serial_number is left blank then the other two boxes must be filled. Any suggestions? -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.

Hi, One of my apps has to export data for the backend system to process it. What''s the best way to create a CSV file in Rails and then return it as a file to the client? i.e when they go to the link /csv/get_data it would return a csv file. I''ve been messing with the CSV library and I can get it to write out to a file, but not sure how to best use this in a web app. Hope

I see that the RubyOnRails.com site has migrated to Mongrel with Apache as a front-end proxy. Is that now the/a recommended setup for Rails apps? We''re still using FCGI but I''m always interested to learn more about other folk''s successful deployment choices. Across all of our sites we''re pumping out about 300k pages per day so anything that saves memory or has

When I run lighttpd 1.4.10 [on Mac OS X] the socket file is called ''fcgi.socket-'', versus ''fcgi.socket-0'' that I get under 1.4.8. Further, when the FCGI daemon quits, the file does not get deleted, and I cannot restart my Rails app until I manually remove it. Can anyone confirm before I raise a bug at lighttpd.net?
