X-Forwarded-Proto / X_FORWARDED_PROTO

2010-01-09 Thread skaar
Eric,

think I came across an issue with the parser in unicorn, with a request
(due to 2 layers of nginx proxying) coming across with both a
X_FORWARDED_PROTO and a X-Forwarded-Proto header. From the socket (in
HttpRequest) - we get:

  X_FORWARDED_PROTO: http
  X-Forwarded-Proto: https

which is parsed to 

  HTTP_X_FORWARDED_PROTO=http,https

There was a passenger ticket that describes that from nginx's point of
view - X-Forwarded-Proto is the correct form.

Re: X-Forwarded-Proto / X_FORWARDED_PROTO

2010-01-09 Thread skaar
 
 The Rack (and CGI) specs require that '-' be replaced with '_' for
 HTTP header names, so Unicorn is doing the correct thing and treating
 it as the same header.

but should it aggregate the values?
 
 Even though '_' appears to be allowed in header names by rfc 2616, it's
 use is questionable as there are parsers that reject it.  Any chance of
 fixing whatever sends the X_FORWARDED_PROTO header?  It's completely
 pointless to set to http

in our case we can probably fix the proxy chain - we have a set of
dedicated SSL systems (which sets X-Forwarded-Proto) which forward to
the main nginx front end (which sets X_FORWARDED_PROTO). I'll also look
at removing the proxy-set-header cases that sets it to to 'http'.

Just for reference: we ran into this issue when replacing nginx to
mongrels over a TCP socket, with nginx to unicorn over a domain socket.
With mongrel we don't have this problem (although I see from
e26ebc985b882c38da50fb0104791a5f2c0f8522 - that you added support for it
in http11)

unicorn/reexec/bundler/cap deploy issue

2010-01-02 Thread skaar
Hi Eric,

we've run into an issue with Unicorn's reexec, when the rails app is
using Bundler and we deploy into dated release directories. Still not
sure what the correct fix is for this, but what happens is that bundler
modifies (acutally prefixes) PATH/RUBYOPT and when you reexec unicorn
these are passed along to the new master process - and Bundler will
again append to the PATH/RUBYOBT.

This becomes more of a problem when you deploy with capistrano and
include SIGUSR2 restart of your unicorn. And effectively it will attempt
to load all Bundler vendor/bundler_gems/environment.rb for all deploys
since unicorn was first started - and if you have, say, a keep only 5
releases strategy, you will soon get failures when a bundler
environment.rb file in RUBYOPT has been shifted out.

I'm still not sure what the right solution is (to modify unicorn, the
unicorn.rb config file or to address it in bundler), but the following
patch does it brute force in unicorn and introduce the assumption that
a reexec should take the same PATH/RUBYOPT variables as the initial
invokation of the unicorn process (using a similar strategy as with
PWD):
