Greetings, I need some help... please be gentle :-) MY SETUP: Solaris-X86, ruby-1.8.4, Apache-2.2.0, Mongrel-0.3.13.4, MySql-4.1.10a I am using the typical setup with apache proxying request to mongrel with mod_proxy_balancer. Currently, I am only running a single instance of mongrel behind the proxy. I am also using the following gems with this app: capistrano (1.2.0) daemons (1.0.2)

Hi guys, I''ve been running mongrel for a while now with Ruby 1.8.4, and last week upgraded to 1.8.6. Since upgrading, each morning when I wake up there''s a big problem: 1. Accessing the site returns a "500 Internal Server Error" 2. All the mongrel_rails processes are still running, but none of them are active (when I run top) 3. Lighttpd and pound are still

Hi, I have had trouble with mongrel freezing after a period of inactivity. Following the advice from the mongrel FAQ, I added: ActiveRecord::Base.verification_timeout = 14400 to my environment.rb file. Unfortunately, that registered a mongrel error: "uninitialized constant ActiveRecord (NameError)" How do I overcome this one? I tried: require ActiveRecord::Base but that registered

i am using the following comman to fire up mongrel: [sergio@vb_workstation chatlogger]$ mongrel_rails start -d -p 8088 ** You have sendfile installed, will use that to serve files. and everything works fine until some point at night.. i think it is pooping out some time in the middle of the night.. if i try to hit the app in the morning, it just stalls out.. if i restart it, it''s

Hi I''m running a 2-instance Mongrel cluster behind Apache 2.2.4 with Rails 1.2.3. If no requests are received by the application for several hours (this usually happens overnight) then Mongrel stops responding and no requests are detected by Rails (at least nothing is in the Rails log). Nothing untoward is in the Mongrel log. If you try and visit the application, the request times out

Hi all, I''ve been having problems with the apache 2.2-mod_proxy_balancer- mongrel setup. My setup is: CentOS 4.3 apache 2.2.3 (compiled from source) with mod_proxy_balancer mysql 4.1 ruby 1.8.4 mongrel 0.3.14 (I know I need to update but I think this problem is independent of the mongrel version) mongrel_cluster 0.2.0 rails_machine 0.1.1 I have apache setup as per Coda''s

Hi, I have Apache (2.2) setup to proxy requests through to Mongrel (0.3.12.4) for a Rails (1.1.2) application (on ruby 1.8.4). The setup is great, but I''m experiencing some nightly failures. I thought I''d post here before digging in too deeply, but it looks like Rails is going into lala land and Mongrel can''t recover... Seems like everything gets all backed up in

Hi I posted this to the Ruby on Rails Talk group but I thought I''d post it here too as it''s probably a more appropriate group. Hope this is ok. I''m running a 2-instance Mongrel cluster behind Apache 2.2.4 with Rails 1.2.3. If no requests are received by the application for several hours (this usually happens overnight) then Mongrel stops responding and no requests are

As a follow up from my previous post, I am pondering some changes to my env. I read that with AR I should change the verification timeout to be lower than the MySQL db Interactive_timeout. Now, I have done some performancing tuning to mysql in LAMP env''s but not RoR. MySQL typical set the default interactive_timeout to 8hrs (28800) this has bitten me a few times with sleeping processess

This isnt totally a rails question; I am using ActiveRecord for storing some simple values into a database. My problem; I keep gettign MySQL Errors. On the Win32 machine it was off and on. Now on the linux machine (ubuntu) I can'' t connect at all. I have all the password settings correct. My only thought, I am working with Threads and thought that might cause the issue, but I

I know this question gets asked a lot but I can''t seem to find the answer when I search through the mailing list. First off here''s my set up. Cent OS 4.3 Apache 2.0 Fast CGI 2.4.0 Rails 1.1 Mysql 5.0 The app starts up fine, but every morning it refuses to start and gives me the dreaded Application error untill I reload Apache. I thought my database was timing out so I added

Hello everyone, I have developed several ruby apps which are currently live in production. Recently I have encountered a problem where my apps stop responding after a long period of inactivity. I am using Webrick as the server with Rails 1.1.2 and mysql 5.0.21. I have dug up other issues people have had with mysql dropping connections after 8 hours, and the supposed fix of adding an

Hi. I have mongrel 1.0.1 running a really simple application and found to lock up (rarely, but still). There''s nothing in the logs, it just stops responding. When I mongrel_rails stop it, I get lots of entries like: Waiting for 3 requests to finish, could take 60 seconds /usr/lib64/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/mongrel-1.0.1/lib/mongrel.rb:675:in `process''

A bit about my environment. Fedora Core 6 httpd 2.2.2 ruby (compiled) 1.8.5 gem 0.9.4 rails 1.2.3 ruby/mysql C library 0.2.6 mysql 5.0.27 interactive_timeout = 28800 wait_timeout = 28800 mongrel 1.0.1 I''ve had this experience in other environments with different versions but this configuration is the most recent attempt I''ve made. I get the "Broken Pipe" error after

Recently I started noticing that after running for a while puppetmaster would freeze after a client called `freshness` which would eventually result in the client getting a timeout and the client dyeing. I tracked the freeze down to the call to ActiveRecord::Base.verify_active_connections! in rails.rb on line 26. After scouring the nets I finally found:

Hi folks, I have some user name with Apostrophe, where these names are displayed in view files with some unwanted characters instead of Apostrophe.

Hi everyone, I have been trying to solve this problem for quite some time now and I really don''t have any further clue to investigate. I am running a mongrel_cluster 1.0.5-2 (mongrel verison : 1.1.5-5) on a ubuntu box with apache2 2.2.12-1ubuntu2.1 I have 4 different apps on the same box and each app has two mongrel instances. After a short period of time ( < 2 hours ) some of the

Hi One of the two mongrel processes has died in the middle of the night four times in the past 9 days, and I need help debugging this. Each time the symptoms are the same: * Each time I can restart the process via cap -a restart_app. * Before the restart, there is nothing unusual in production.log or mongrel.log. * During the restart, about 100 repetitions of an error message are generated in

I have a rails app serving up XML on an infrequent basis. This is being run with mongrel and mysql. I''ve found that if the app does not get exercised for longer than a few hours it goes dead ("Lost Connection to MySQL") and starts throwing Errno::EPIPE errors. It seems that the mysql connection gets timed out for inactivity or something like that. It can be restarted with
