Hi Everyone, I''m happy to announce the 0.2.0 release of Mongrel -- the fastest HTTP 1.1 library Ruby has yet. http://mongrel.rubyforge.org/ -- ruby docs lame page. http://rubyforge.org/projects/mongrel/ -- project page. Special thanks to Tom Copland for setting up my RubyForge goodness, and to Why for kicking in time to get the Camping examples up to snuff. This release should

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''m trying to get Lighttpd started, and understand how it works (not quite there yet with Ror). Some questions: 1) Can I run Lighttpd as a main server instead of Apache2? 2) When hosting different RoR projetcs, will there be one server for each? Or is it one server running all? 2) Can it do everything Apache can? Like PHP, webdav, etc? -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.

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

Hi, In short, RoR is brand spanking new to me, I set up Instant Rails (if you can call copying files "setup") and made my own simple app via scaffold. One table, 11 cols, 100 rows. All is well, except when I view the data, it takes 5-10 seconds to show the page, 5-10 more seconds to get the edit page and so on. Going back to the previous page is no faster (via previous link).

Hi all, can you recommend me which web server config to use for developing rails on windows machine. I tried webrick, which is good but it''s annoying because console window is in taskbar for every site running and it have to be started manually. Apache with CGI is to slow and using FastCGI on the other side brings me lot of problems, like randomly not working RoR sites. Any help is

Hi All, Just about to set up RoR on our server and was wondering what the ideal setup for RoR is these days? Apache 1? Apache 2? fCgi? Any guidance would be helpful! Thanks, -Adam

Has anyone had any experience with making calls to Win32 COM object in a rails controller. I have no problem making the calls using the WIN32 module, however I do seem to have some memory leaks, when the COM object being called at some point makes use of SafeArrays. The same method calls in VB,Visual C++ don''t produce the same memory leaks. I realize this might seem a little odd, but

I have a problem deploying FastCGI for use with RoR. OS: FreeBSD 5.4 Apache: 2.0.55 FastCGI: 2.4.2 ###### I compiled a new mod_fastcgi.so and copied it to /usr/lib/apache/mod_fastcgi.so ###### My httpd.conf looks like this: LoadModule fastcgi_module /usr/lib/apache/mod_fastcgi.so <IfModule mod_fastcgi.c> AddHandler fastcgi-script .fcgi </IfModule> ###### The testscript

I have no idea why this is happening but it seems like every method on my controller gets called twice. Here is what it looks like when I call a list using the scaffold code ========================== Processing DepartmentsController#index (for 127.0.0.1 at 2006-02-24 01:05:00) [GET] Parameters: {"action"=>"index", "controller"=>"departments"}

I see that lighttpd 1.3.14 supports SCGI. lighttpd 1.3.14 - 2005-06-15 18:10 Changes ------- * added SCGI support via mod_scgi * added hash-based and round-robin load balancing to mod_proxy * fixed range requests larger than 2Gb * fixed compilation on Solaris * fixed endless loops in mod_fastcgi, mod_cgi and mod_proxy * fixed handling of URIs for ''+'' and

Hello, >From purely a memory consumption standpoint, is it generally more efficient to run a simple Rails app using WEBrick alongside a separate apache installation or to run Rails under FCGI and use Apache to bridge to the Web? I have looked through lots of docs and old forum posts. Most seem to center on just getting Apache+Rails running, or on speed. I am really not concerned about my

I have a webserver that''s happily running apache2 and PHP. I''d like to deploy a site that I wrote using RoR on that same server but read that there might be some conflicts with PHP and RoR trying to access the same MySQL database. How real are those conflicts? Could I mess up my running PHP site if I install mod_ruby and try to use Apache2? Would I be better off

Hello, I have a big controller of about 1000 lines and whenever I make changes to views the browser does not show the updated code. I am running in development mode which makes it all more confusing. This happens in both rails 1.0.0 and 1.1.2 and both in ruby 1.8.2 and 1.8.4. It also happens for fcgi and scgi. Also for apache, webrick, and mongrel. At this point I have no idea what is going

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 got a brand new Fedora Core 4 box and was all excited to get Rails running on it. That was about two days ago. I did all the ''yum install ruby, etc. etc. etc.'', then ''gem install rails, etc. etc. etc''. I''ve tried running Rails with httpd (fastcgi and cgi), lighttpd (scgi, fastcgi, cgi), mongrel, webrick, and even ''ruby

Hi all. The subject pretty much says it. I''m running on a VPS-style shared server at pipespring.com. I''ve got Typo setup, and have been running it fine for about a month. However, today I got an e-mail from my host saying they disabled Ruby (chmod 000) because it was using waaay too much swap space. I haven''t changed anything with my server at all (Rails or otherwise)

Hi all, On theserverside.com there is an article describing an interview with Bruce Tate, where he calls Java dead like Cobol. See: http://www.theserverside.com/news/thread.tss?thread_id=39066 However in the comments, some guy comes up with a good point: He states the following: <quote> I couldn''t come up with a viable enterprise quality/grade deployment platform for RoR. Even

Yesterday, our of nothing my server went down... Rails application failed to start properly Imediately i started checking my logs and found quickly that something was wrong with the dispatch.fcgi or its function. I use FCGI, and it had been working perfectly with Apache 2.0.55, MySQL 5.0, Ruby 1.8.2 and Rails 1.1.2. What really got me wondering was that I did nothing. One day it worked
