Ok, after the earlier weirdness with stopping my mongrel cluster I've now got things to the point where I'm working on the Apache proxy and after following the instructions from various sources, it doesn't work.
Most everyone says to set up <VirtualHost *:80> and so on But that just blows out Apache 2.2.8 with a complaint about "can't mix * ports with non * ports". To elminate that error I put the host name or ip address in place of the *. Then most everyone's instructions assumes that there's a directory "logs" inside /etc/apache2, but on Ubuntu 8.04 Apache 2.2.8 keeps it's logs in /var/log/apache2 so those instructions have to be changed for that config. The final killer is that having done all that the proxy balancer is now refusing to pass on the request. The error logs show [error] [client 192.168.1.15] client denied by server configuration: proxy:balancer://mongrel_cluster/chapter4 the mongrel cluster is set up as # Taken from p 156 of Deploying Rails Applications <Proxy balancer://mongrel_cluster> BalancerMember http://127.0.0.1:8000 BalancerMember http://127.0.0.1:8001 BalancerMember http://127.0.0.1:8002 </Proxy> Oddly, even though I'm starting the mongrels on 127.0.0.1 I can access them on the machine's public address so 192.168.1.12:8000/something lets me in, but 192.168.1.12/something blows me out with the above error in the logs. Any ideas? Or should I give up and use Passenger?
