Dear Luis,

Thanks a lot for replying, I followed your advice and it revealed the problem: 
it was the --prefix switch that caused it. When I start it like 
E:\RailsApps\3vi>mongrel_rails start -e development -p 3001 -a 127.0.0.1 -l 
"e:/RailsApps/3vi/log/1.log" -P "e:/RailsApps/3vi/log/mongrel.pid" -t 0 -r 
"public" -n 1024 --prefix "/labelyzer"
I am given a ton of errors:
** Starting Mongrel listening at 127.0.0.1:3001
** Starting Rails with development environment...
** Mounting Rails at /labelyzer...

And if I skip --prefix, it's all fine. Any ideas?

Thanks in advance,

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.

Cheers,
