Looking at the code for ActionController#send_file I see that it is using ruby to send the file contents. Linux supports a sendfile() OS call. The implementation of Linux sendfile() is extremely fast and very CPU efficient, far faster than what can be done in user space. Does Windows support a sendfile() equivalent call? I haven''t been working with ruby long enough to know how it handles

Hey guys, I often get this problem the first time I try to deploy a rails app on dreamhost and I''m not sure what the cause is. Basically, I have an app that''s running fine on my local machine. I''ve uploaded the app, configured and migrated to the latest version of the db, and set all of the necessary directories to 755. But when I run dispatch.rb in ssh or

I am running a RoR application on Apache 1.3/RedHat 7.3/MySQL 3.1.23 (Old versions I know, but upgrading to latest versions are not practical for a number of reasons). There are 5 RoR FastCGI processes configured using FastCgiServer. What I am finding is that, after a while, some of the FastCGI processes seem to ''hang''. They no longer process requests, and the only way to

The lighttpd config file is set up like this... Rails url: //host/controller/method/id Lighttpd tries to open the file ''controller/method/id'' from the document root. Of course this doesn''t work and generates an error 404 This gets caught with: server.error-handler-404 = "/dispatch.fcgi" Which turns the request into "/dispatch.fcgi" That gets caught

I''m having a lot of problems with my Typo install. My fastcgi fails horribly after a reboot: [13/Jan/2006:16:55:28 :: 19796] Dispatcher failed to catch: (Interrupt) /usr/lib/ruby/site_ruby/1.8/fcgi.rb:597:in `each'' /usr/lib/ruby/site_ruby/1.8/fcgi.rb:597:in `each_cgi'' /usr/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/rails-1.0.0/lib/fcgi_handler.rb:52:in `process!''

Hi, Any advice/comments on the potential for hosting some personal Ruby applications from home? (i.e. for learning, sharing with friends etc) Would the basic concept be: * Need to buy a static IP address from you ISP * By a domain name and point it to the static IP address * Run Apache as the front end web server - Q: What basic lockdown/security steps should one take? * Perform a PORT

Hi, Background: I''m currently stuck getting my basic rails application working on dreamhost. I have gone throught the doco.

In web applications that have user generated content, it is clearly necessary to provide some ability to ''escape'' user generated text to avoid SQL injection, XSS, and other nasty attacks. The existing dogma on this point seems to favor escaping text as it comes out of the database, rather than doing it on the way in. I''m not sure that I understand the logic behind

Hello I have been trying a number of security/login generators recently. My favourite so far is the Acts_as_authenticated. I like the fact that it is only billed as a starting point and doesn''t try to do everything. I would like to add security roles to it, so that some of my controller actions can only be used by an admin role. Has anybody implemented this using

Hello Doug, I am not disputing anything you say and in fact, spring-rich is "okay" as far as swing development goes.
