Hello, I''m trying to write a rails application serves by mongrel and using accentuated characters in the .rhtml page. But Mongrel replace them by ''?'' . It works fine for static pages by defining the charset to iso-8859-1 in the mongrel_mime.yml But how to change the default encoding (seems to be UTF-8) for the dynamic pages ? thanks for your help. -------------- next

On one of my development servers mongrel dies when idle for any length of time. Since I''ve not been able to solve that problem I thought I''d route around it by using monit to kick things when necessary. My monitrc contains the following... -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- check process mongrel_8310 with pidfile

While trying to debug a goofy XML loading issue in IE, I''ve found that Mongrel (latest) returns Content-Type: 0 with every request on a particular (CentOS 4) server, yet not on my local (OS X) box. These both access identical Rails apps. This seems like a clue, but thought I''d ask here if for some reason this is expected behavior. Both running Ruby 1.8.4. Both return

I just launched the website for Rails Day 2006, the second annual 24 hour Ruby on Rails development contest. Teams of one to three people have 24 hours to develop a Rails application from scratch. When the contest is over, entries are judged, and cool prizes are awarded. http://www.railsday2006.com/ Sponsoring Rails Day is a great way to promote your company to the geek demographic. If

I''m attempting to deploy a rails application using switchtower. My IT guys are refusing to give me sudo for a user changeable script. I really can''t argue with their logic. If I have sudo for a script that I can update, well, I can do most anything I want. They are suggesting I create a cgi that performs the same function. Since the cgi would run as www-data (this is a debian

I'm rsyncing a directory on a linux box to a win xp pro with cygwin. Some of the files are always copied, or so it appears by the progress report and the fact that a dot version of the file is created and grows to the full size before completion. Note, the source file is not changing - it is a static file sitting in a directory and is not modified. Nor is the corresponding file in the target

Switchtower is really cool once you get it going. Quick question, I do a: % rake deploy % rake remote_exec ACTION=symlink_pictures ...but what''s the easiest way to combine the two in a single command? Thanks CM -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.

Just loaded up Switchtower 1.0 today, via gems. I''m on OS X (10.4.5), with ruby and friends installed via darwinports in opt/local. After installing ST, I switchtowerized my app, set up the deploy recipe, then ran: rake remote_exec ACTION=setup When I do, i get this error: rake aborted! uninitialized constant SwitchTower Obviously, this happens with any of the tasks in ST (like

I''m using a find with a :joins clause, like this: :joins => "JOIN table_b ON table_b.id=table_b_id" The records returned are used in a scaffold generated list page. The edit, show, and destroy links are getting the wrong id. They are getting the id of the table b record. When I run the query using mysql, I see that the query returns *2* id columns, the id of the main

I''ve followed the install the install guide on http://hivelogic.com/articles/2005/12/01/ruby_rails_lighttpd_mysql_tiger and it seemed to work. And I''ve been following the Instant Gratifiction guide in Chapter four in Agile Web Development with Rails book. I''m in terminal and I type - cd work (everything works fine) then rails demo (everything seems to work) then cd

Hello I''m doing rake remote_exec ACTION=migrate and I get an output with servers []: loading configuration c:/ruby/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/switchtower-0.10.0/lib/switchtower/recipes/standard.rb loading configuration ./config/deploy.rb executing task migrate executing "cd /var/www/catalyst/current && rake RAILS_ENV=production migrate" servers: [] processing command

I''m struggling to get switchtower working, and from other posts about it I know it has something to do with ruby binding to open ssl. I''m just not sure what I should recompile/reinstall to get things to work. running: "rake remote_exec ACTION=setup" gives me ---> ...executing "mkdir -p -m 775 /usr/apps/hello-rails/releases /usr/apps/hello-rails/shared/system

I''m trying to set up switchtower, following the info in the Manual, but am getting this error when I run "rake remote_exec ACTION=setup": servers: ["cantona.dnswatchdog.com"] /usr/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/net-ssh-1.0.3/lib/net/ssh/transport/packet-stream.rb:203:in `sysread'': bignum too big to convert into `long'' (RangeError) from

I moved a rails application to textdrive using their low-cost shared plan. Once on textdrive my app would display ''proxy errors'' periodically. Hitting reload seemed to be all that was needed to get past the proxy error. After discussions with their support people I decided the proxy errors were being caused by apache server restarts -- because there were many of us sharing one

I''m trying to deploy a rails app with no success. I can execute: ''rake remote_exec ACTION=setup'' but when I try to execute : ''rake deploy'' I got this error: loading configuration c:/ruby/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/switchtower-0.10.0 /lib/switchtower/recipes/standard.rb loading configuration ./config/deploy.rb executing task deploy transaction: start

I''ve been trying to configure SwitchTower to perform deployment of my app to a Dreamhost server. I can run rake remote_exec ACTION=setup just fine but rake deploy keeps giving me errors when its checking out the latest revision from the Subversion repository on the same Dreamhost server. It displays errors like this: loading configuration c:/ruby/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/switchtower-0.1

Does your *shared* hosting account work without errors? I''m interested in both positive and negative reports. If you are willing, please contribute - name of the hosting service - how long you have used them - your experience ("flawless!", "it''s crap!") You *do not* need to reply saying your VPS service works great. This is about *shared* hosting

I had posted a thread couple of weeks ago whereby mongrel just mysteriously stops interacting with my application after an idle period...usually less than 8 hours. http://rubyforge.org/pipermail/mongrel-users/2007-February/002908.html I had hoped this would go away after a few upgrades but to know avail. Interestingly, the process does not die...it still accepts HTTP requests but does not
