I just created a test rails app, and am having very wierd issues with mongrel cluster. Here's what I'm doing:
rails test sudo chown -R mongrel:mongrel test cd test sudo mongrel_rails \ cluster::configure -e production \ -p 8000 -N 3 -a 127.0.0.1 --user mongrel \ --group mongrel It correctly writes the mongrel_cluster.yml file to the config directory. Now, if I: sudo mongrel_rails start -d Everything works like a charm. I can browse to the site on port 3000 and everything is both hunky and dory. However, if I : sudo mongrel_rails cluster::start It tells me it's starting 3 mongrels, but nothing happens. The mongrel log file shows this (apologies for the long listing): [EMAIL PROTECTED] log]$ cat mongrel.log ** Daemonized, any open files are closed. Look at log/mongrel.8000.pid and log/mongrel.log for info. ** Starting Mongrel listening at 127.0.0.1:8000 ** Changing group to mongrel. ** Changing user to mongrel. ** Starting Rails with production environment... /usr/local/lib/ruby/site_ruby/1.8/rubygems/custom_require.rb:27:in `gem_original_require': no such file to load -- /home/limbach/www/test/config/environment (LoadError) from /usr/local/lib/ruby/site_ruby/1.8/rubygems/custom_require.rb:27:in `require' from /usr/local/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/mongrel-1.0.1/lib/mongrel/rails.rb:155:in `rails' from /usr/local/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/mongrel-1.0.1/bin/mongrel_rails:112:in `cloaker_' from /usr/local/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/mongrel-1.0.1/lib/mongrel/configurator.rb:138:in `call' from /usr/local/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/mongrel-1.0.1/lib/mongrel/configurator.rb:138:in `listener' from /usr/local/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/mongrel-1.0.1/bin/mongrel_rails:98:in `cloaker_' from /usr/local/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/mongrel-1.0.1/lib/mongrel/configurator.rb:51:in `call' from /usr/local/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/mongrel-1.0.1/lib/mongrel/configurator.rb:51:in `initialize' from /usr/local/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/mongrel-1.0.1/bin/mongrel_rails:83:in `new' from /usr/local/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/mongrel-1.0.1/bin/mongrel_rails:83:in `run' from /usr/local/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/mongrel-1.0.1/lib/mongrel/command.rb:211:in `run' from /usr/local/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/mongrel-1.0.1/bin/mongrel_rails:243 from /usr/local/bin/mongrel_rails:16:in `load' from /usr/local/bin/mongrel_rails:16 [snip] That pattern is repeated for each of the three mongrels In case it helps, here are the gems I've got installed: [EMAIL PROTECTED] log]$ gem list --local *** LOCAL GEMS *** actionmailer (1.3.3) Service layer for easy email delivery and testing. actionpack (1.13.3) Web-flow and rendering framework putting the VC in MVC. actionwebservice (1.2.3) Web service support for Action Pack. activerecord (1.15.3) Implements the ActiveRecord pattern for ORM. activesupport (1.4.2) Support and utility classes used by the Rails framework. cgi_multipart_eof_fix (2.1) Fix an exploitable bug in CGI multipart parsing which affects Ruby <= 1.8.5 when multipart boundary attribute contains a non-halting regular expression string. daemons (1.0.6) A toolkit to create and control daemons in different ways fastercsv (1.2.0) FasterCSV is CSV, but faster, smaller, and cleaner. fastthread (1.0) Optimized replacement for thread.rb primitives gem_plugin (0.2.2) A plugin system based only on rubygems that uses dependencies only mongrel (1.0.1) A small fast HTTP library and server that runs Rails, Camping, Nitro and Iowa apps. mongrel_cluster (0.2.1) Mongrel plugin that provides commands and Capistrano tasks for managing multiple Mongrel processes. mysql (2.7) MySQL/Ruby provides the same functions for Ruby programs that the MySQL C API provides for C programs. rails (1.2.3) Web-application framework with template engine, control-flow layer, and ORM. rake (0.7.3) Ruby based make-like utility. sources (0.0.1) This package provides download sources for remote gem installation Thanks in advance for any help.
