Is anyone using ferret with Mongrel/Mongrel-cluster? The first one or two times I access the ferret index it works fine, but then it throws a write lock error StandardError (: Error occured at <index_rw.c>:703 Error: exception 6 not handled: Could not obtain write lock when trying to write index ):
I need to do more testing on this to narrow down the problem/solution but just wanted to throw out the question to see if anyone was using this already succesfully or if someone (Dave? :) knew why ferret might choke on this setup. I've been developing using lighttpd as a server without any problems -Debian sarge built like http://brainspl.at/articles/2005/11/13/the-perfect-lightweight-rails-lighttpd-debian-install but I've just started testing on a production server -Debian sarge with with Apache 2.2, mod_proxy_balancer and Mongrel built like http://forums.rimuhosting.com/forums/showthread.php?t=230 and http://blog.innerewut.de/articles/2006/04/21/scaling-rails-with-apache-2-2-mod_proxy_balancer-and-mongrel (I put in the links in case anyone else is interested in deploying their own rails server - these links have been gold to me) Sam _______________________________________________ Ferret-talk mailing list [email protected] http://rubyforge.org/mailman/listinfo/ferret-talk
