Zed, It seems that the issues is fixed. I'll explain better again: The missing mongrel.pid file problem was reported by the mongrel_rails mongrel::stop command when I noticed that the the mongrel server stop responding and I was trying to stop it, actually sometimes the pid file was there but the mongrel stop command reported that the file was missing.
Again I noticed this problem because my configuration ( apache 2.0.59 + mod_proxy + 1 mongrel task ) stopped respoding after a couple of hours it had been launched, also contacting directly the mongrel server didn't work. Looking around various thread I've found for a similar problem : mongrel stopping responding, due to a bug in apache 2.2.x and it could be solved by adding: SetEnv force-proxy-request-1.0 1 SetEnv proxy-nokeepalive 1 I've modified the server configuration and now it's over 8 hours that the server is running fine. Hope this solved the problem I'll let you know and if you want I can try to reproduce the bug. Massimo Zed A.
