Hi! I think the best is to just ignore those compaints.. I don't know either..
But this will solve your stale PIDs problem: http://textsnippets.com/posts/show/931 I used this patch from the guy in the comments: --------------------------------- Index: bin/mongrel_rails =================================================================== --- bin/mongrel_rails (revision 536) +++ bin/mongrel_rails (working copy) @@ -83,9 +83,17 @@ config = Mongrel::Rails::RailsConfigurator.new(settings) do if defaults[:daemon] if File.exist? defaults[:pid_file] - log "!!!

If anyone has ideas: I can say "/etc/init.d/mongrel_cluster start" and it starts just fine, but when I restart the system, it doesn't start... I did issue: "sudo update-rc.d mongrel_cluster defaults" and got: Adding system startup for /etc/init.d/mongrel_cluster ... /etc/rc0.d/K20mongrel_cluster -> ../init.d/mongrel_cluster /etc/rc1.d/K20mongrel_cluster -> ../init.d/mongrel_cluster /etc/rc6.d/K20mongrel_cluster -> ../init.d/mongrel_cluster /etc/rc2.d/S20mongrel_cluster -> ../init.d/mongrel_cluster /etc/rc3.d/S20mongrel_cluster -> ../init.d/mongrel_cluster /etc/rc4.d/S20mongrel_cluster -> ../init.d/mongrel_cluster /etc/rc5.d/S20mongrel_cluster -> ../init.d/mongrel_cluster Strange, very strange!! nginx is starting fine.. I tried to remove / add nginx links with update-rc.d and it still worked.. but cluster just won't start.. What could possibly be causing this?
