That behavior is normal with mongrel_service. has been implemented in a way that the ruby process automatically restart in case of a failure, which is seems is happening in the background. To debug this, please start mongrel standalone: cd my_app mongrel_rails start Doing that, you should see, on the console, what is happening. Please paste the results on your reply so I can help you out.
