Oh this is absolutely fantastic. It actually turns out to be exactly what I needed today. We can't go 24 hours without ferret segfaulting mongrel on the most completely random searches ever - and the change to mongrel 1.0.1 from 0.3.13.4 seems to leave the pids laying around more. The --clean seems to be working great in my monit-initiated restarts (in production mind you :-) ) and now I can happily ignore trying to find the segfault needle in the ferret haystack again(*) Thanks Bradley!

But a) laziness is a require virtue of systems management and b) trying to find a random segfault in thousands of lines of C code is no longer fun to me ;-) ) -- ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Jason Young -- Systems Manager, eXtension http://about.extension.org/wiki/Jason_Young ______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Mongrel-users mailing list Mongrel-users@rubyforge.org http://rubyforge.org/mailman/listinfo/mongrel-users
