I thought I'd follow up on my progress with this thread. I haven't seen the
problem now for a couple of days so (fingers crossed) my problem appears to
be fixed.
Firstly, I DO have logrotate scheduled to run daily using cron but I didn't
touch this, so I don't believe this is the problem in my case.
I initiall tried setting the following in environment.rb
ActiveRecord::Base.verification_timeout = 14400
This did NOT solve my problem, but is probably a change which should be made
anyway.
I then made two significant changes:
1. I didn't have the MySQL gem installed, so I have installed this (version
2.7).
2. I made the following change to my Apache Virtual Host setting to prevent
Apache from losing the connection to the proxy (according to
http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.0/mod/mod_proxy.html)
SetEnv force-proxy-request-1.0 1
SetEnv proxy-nokeepalive 1
After making these two changes and restarting MySQL, Apache and the Mongrel
Cluster, the problem hasn't reoccurred.
Hope this helps.
Cheers, Olly
