similar to: problems with lighty on linux

Hello everyone, I?ve been working with Ruby on Rails for about 2 months now and have really enjoyed the ease of use of it. I?m only been doing development on it so I?ve been using WeBrick. Recently, I have built a server running Debian Linux, with ruby 1.8.2, rails 1.0.0, lighty 1.4.3, and Mysql 5.0.18. I used WeBrick to generate a lighttpd.conf file for me, I changed the paths in the

I''m trying to setup my rails application with Light+fcgi. This is the error I''m getting when I try to start Lighttpd : ============ [getcapture@alpha getcapture]$ ~/etc/rc.d/lighttpd.sh start Starting Lighttpd 2006-04-15 11:27:24: (mod_fastcgi.c.1022) execve failed for: /home/getcapture/application/public/dispatch.fcgi No such file or directory [getcapture@alpha getcapture]$

I need to graft some rails apps onto a website running apache 1.3 and I must be missing something very obvious because I cannot get things working properly. Here is what I need: 1) The server must be running apache 1.3. A very large body of PHP content is currently vended by the server through 5 vhosts and I have neither the time nor resources to replace apache1 with apache2 or lighttpd. Maybe

Hi, I have created a small :restart task to overwrite the default one: task :restart, :roles => :app do sudo "/etc/init.d/lighttpd stop" sudo "/etc/init.d/lighttpd start" end This works fine and lighty does restart, but the last command never finishes, so I never return to the prompt. Here''s my output: cap restart loading configuration

I''ve got switchtower set up, and it seems to work fine except for one problem: It doesn''t successfully restart lighttpd. I have the following task in my deploy.rb file: desc "Restart the web server" task :restart, :roles => :app do sudo "/usr/local/etc/rc.d/lighttpd.sh restart" end This is on a FreeBSD system, so it''s using the rc script to

I''ve been trying to get lighty configured to work with Rails and I''m having quite a time of it. I have all of the following installed on a FC4 system: ruby-1.8.4 gems-0.8.11 rails-1.0 fcgi-2.4.0 ruby-fcgi-0.8.6 lighttpd-1.4.10 Before I tried setting up multiple apps, I just decided to try for a single app setup. I have the following configuration: ### begin config ###

I have been trying to get Lighttpd working.... we have been using webrick, but want to move to a production quality web server. I followed the instructions found here : http://brainspl.at/pages/rails_stack We are developing on windows and deploying to Fedora Linux. We''re using rails 1.0. The build actually happens on the windows box and using ant transfers the code to the Linux box.

Hi there, The default recipe expects you to be able to access your web server directly from your local machine. On our web server, for security purposes, it is only possible to ssh to it through one particular ip (which is also a remote machine.) The capistrano source is so compact and tidy it looks very hackable. But rather than messing around I thought I''d ask first if anyone else

In case this helps anyone I recently finished setting up a Debian server closely following Ezra''s excellent guidance @ http://brainspl.at/rails_stack.html. I used newer libraries in some cases (and mysql 5.0) and everything worked great until the end when lighttpd wouldn''t start. I finally figured out that Lighty 1.4.9 has a problem working with rails out-of-the-box. See

I''ve just spent a while chasing a false bug in lighttpd and load balancing among external fast cgi processes due to what I think is a documentation bug. Following the info on the wiki page <http://wiki.rubyonrails.com/rails/pages/LighttpdWithProcessScripts>, one would think that something like this works: fastcgi.debug = 1 fastcgi.server = ( ".fcgi" => (

Hi everybody I am trying to get RoR to work with lighttpd. Nearly there, but I am stuck with a strange phenomenon. If I configure lighttpd to serve pages on say port 2000, I can get at my testapp fine and see the "Welcome aboard" page. However, if I configure lighttpd to use port 80, I get a download prompt from my browser. If I access my URI like

I have a rails app on a debian server running lighttpd and I''m trying to set up typo so that it also works (with a different url). I have 4 URLs running -- let''s call them foo.com, bar.com, www.typo.com and php.typo.com I am starting lighttpd by going into the directory where my foo.com app is and typing either ruby script/server or script/server -e production -- either

Hi Guys, I hope someone can help me out. I am trying to configure two applications to run on lighttpd and each app will have its own domain. My machine is running on Fedora. When I run my lighttpd with the following conf file, I get no error but when I check out my app, it dishes out a 404 error- the 404 being served isn''t the 404 inside the railsapp/public folder. Do hope someone

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,

Team, I''m trying to figure out how to run 2 rails apps on one host. I ran an experiment: cd /tmp/ rails app1 rails app2 cd app1 script/server rails put a copy of lighttpd.conf in /tmp/app1/config/ and then started lighttpd http://localhost:3000 gave me the splash page. I shutdown the server I added something to /tmp/app1/config/lighttpd.conf server.modules = (

I have RoR running on lighttpd on RedHat Linux and every morning that I check the web page it just keeps waiting to refresh it forever, Firefox and IE never times out on any of the pages I try. Has anyone seen that happening to their RoR? I also removed lighttpd completely and just ran webrick but there was no difference. The linux box has a pretty old kernel 2.4.21-4, could that be the

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? --

Hello, I have an project running on a dedicated server: Debian, P4 CPU 3.00GHz, 1GB RAM, ruby 1.8.4 (2005-12-24) [x86_64-linux], rails (1.0.0), activerecord (1.13.2) lighttpd-1.4.10 + fastcgi + mysql 5.0 7 dispatchers.

Hi this is a newbie question that should be easy enough for somebody to answer, I''m horrible at this web server configuration stuff. I''m running Rails on Fedora Core 5 with Lighttpd and MySql.
