similar to: dispatch.fcgi dieing randomly

First let me say that Rails caching is very very cool. The traffic (and responsiveness) I''ve saved by added 10 lines of ruby code would be enourmous, if I actually had traffic... ;) Sweepers as observers are great, btw. Since every page of my side is dynamic, once I did some DB optimization I''m caching the content of the index page which was taking the bulk of the time to load

I have a problem where when I try and access my site a dispatch.fcgi process is started but then exits right after the page has loaded. Requireing it to start all over agin the next time a request is made. I''ve read about people using two or more FCGI processes to help with the request load but how do people do this? Firstly, how do you make a FCGI process persistant? I''m

Finally got fcgi installed with apache. Now whe I click on "About your application''s environment" on the Rails Welcome page, it simply prints out the dispatch.fcgi script as shown below. I would appreciate any help I can get on this. I can provide other infomation if necessary. #!/usr/local/bin/ruby # # You may specify the path to the FastCGI crash log (a log of unhandled #

Hello, I just did a "gem update" on my server updating to the latest version. After this none of my scripts work. In apache error log I get: FastCGI: comm with (dynamic) server "/home/user/public_html/dispatch.fcgi" aborted: (first read) idle timeout (30 sec) My only guess is that the problem is related to the fastCGI binding but I have no idea what to look for. I

I have an application that works fine in development mode under plain old CGI and I''m trying to get it running under FCGI with multiple hours of frustration. Lately, I am running dispatch.fcgi standalone from the command line. It gives me a not very helpful one line error message; Status: 500 Internal Server Error The log file produces a not very helpful 2 line message;

Hey Folks, I''m deploying a camping app on an internal Apache2 + FastCGI server at my office. Of course, on my Mac it works great, but I can''t get things to work with Apache and FCGI. I''ve followed the directions on why''s page documenting how to do this, but I''m getting the following error in my Apache error.log file: FastCGI: (dynamic) server

I''m having tons of problems with fcgi on apache2. The app didn''t crash over the weekend when it wasn''t used. I ran it this morning and it was fine. It''s an inhouse app so it wasn''t used for 3 days over the weekend. It did however crash today. Does this sound like a bad fcgi setup or just a very buggy fcgi/Apache combo? Charlie Bowman

Hi all. There is an issue with Rails, FastCGI and Apache2 on Debian that I''ve been dealing with since I started Rails development in late 2005. I''ve developed various workarounds but have not been able to solve the problem at the root. Every so often, for reasons I''ve never been able to determine, a load of dispatch.fcgi processes get spawned and take over my whole

hi all, I can blab, but here is a sample of my /var/log/apache2/error.log, it has all the info: any ideas what I can do prevent 500s from hitting my users?

Hi, I know that Apache2 + fastcgi is sometimes difficult to setup, but I was wondering if anyone has come across this error and if yes what did you do to resolve it?

We''re trying to run Ruby on Rails on Debian with Apache and FastCGI, but can''t get it to work. As far as we can tell, it seems to go wrong in the final stages; Apache appears not to be doing anything with dispatch.fcgi, even though FastCGI looks to be set up correctly. We''ve followed several "how to"s, but we don''t get any other results. What
