Lately we've had problems with the web-server processes in our rails 3.1 app intermittently stop responding. We haven't been able to work out why (no exceptions, high cpu or memory usage or networking calls) - it just seems like every few days one them just randomly hangs and never recovers. The process is still there, but not responding to requests and everything sent to it times out. We're using heroku so our logging options are limited.
So, I was wondering - what do people use to keep their servers responsive? (Especially on "hands-off" platforms like heroku) How common is it to routinely restart processes? (Sounds like the wrong solution to me, but some people recommend it) Iain Beeston -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby or Rails Oceania" group.
