Hi Mike,
You're definitely hitting this more often then I am (about once per
day).
With monit, you can do an HTTP request and test the response, which
is how I determined if it's hanged. Sounds pretty similar to what
you're doing with cron.
Which OS are you running + version of ruby? I'm on OpenSUSE 10.3,
Ruby 1.8.5, Rails 1.2, and Mongrel 1.0.1. I also run memcached,
lighttpd, and pound. I'm running 6 mongrels using mongrel_cluster
(the latest version).
Thanks,
Pete
