To keep it short: You're using JRuby, not Matz Ruby (MRI) so: mongrel_service gem will not work, since it depends on win32-service, which is only Windows (not Java). You're using a old version of mongrel_service (0.1) which definitely will not work as expected with latest Rails and Mongrel. Daemonize (-d) otpion requires fork functionality, which is not available in Windows (neither MRI or JRuby or any Ruby for Windows implementation). > > > Also, is there any way to keep mongrel live and running??
