What are these things called? They're not really options, are they? Just tried it out and not only can I trap these options easily using preinitialize.rb with mongrel_service as well as mongrel_rails, but it also works perfectly fine in script/server (sorry, I know you don't like this and I trust your judgement, but it is the only option I have when debugging under Netbeans). THIS SOLVES MY PROBLEM! I missed this feature completely or it is undocumented. Had I known that a couple of weeks back I could have spent a week at the beach and would still be further than I am now. > 3) Add the additional parameter to created mongrel_service manually > (registry editing) For me that isn't a big deal since we have an installer and can easily configure the mongrel services during installation by writing to the registry directly. > Thank you for explaining in further detail your need, it helped me > provide you a better alternative.

Now I've also noticed that mongrel_rails service::install doesn't complain at all if I specify such glyphs (like MYAPP_TARGET=foo). However, they are not added to the ImagePath. If you think this would be useful, I see if I can fix it and submit a patch? Many thanks again, its hugely appreciated. _______________________________________________ Mongrel-users mailing list Mongrel-users@rubyforge.org http://rubyforge.org/mailman/listinfo/mongrel-users
