Disregard my fastthrread.so and git/patch incompetence.
I managed to patch the fastthread.c file so that it would not complain
about the undefined symbol under ruby 1.8.6 and was able to build
the .so cleanly, pass "rake test" and install it in all the proper
places.

Hi folks,
I've had sort of an epic journey trying to go from 5.1.1 to 5.2 over
the last 2 days ...
In order to even get typo back up I had to (this is the short
story ...)
1. Follow Rick's advice to get datanoise-actionwebservice from
gems.github.com
2. Hand edit the contents of the tags table in the production
database to change any tag that had a "." char in it just so I could
get past migration #71 (071_fix_tags_naming.rb). The migration that
was supposed to do this simply did not work for some reason until I
manually made sure there were no tags with "." chars in the
database. 50+ edits to SQL table values.
3. Reorder the migrations because it seemed that migrations prior to
081_create_cache_informations.rb actually depend on the presence of
the cache_informations table and bomb out with fatal migration
errors when the table is not present. Without the reorder I could
not get past migration 078 on the production database
After jumping through all those hoops I seem to have a working
install but I'm getting nailed up by a fastthread issue that I'm
hoping someone can help me out with.
Using both mongrel and webrick I can reliably crash typo 5.2 with
this error:
ruby: symbol lookup error: /usr/local/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/
fastthread-1.0.5/lib/fastthread.so: undefined symbol:
rb_thread_alive_p
In this case google is my friend and it seems that there is a git
fix for this problem:
http://github.com/mental/fastthread/commits/fastthread-1.0.5
-and-
http://github.com/mental/fastthread/commit/75995d6a097e5b55dc53c39858aea051ce74556e
My main issue is not typo related at this point :) I just don't know
enough about git and/or how it is used with gems and ruby to
actually implement the patch/fix/hotfix whatever that is referenced
in the above URL
Has anyone else run into the "undefined symbol: rb_thread_alive_p" -
any tips on rebuilding fastthread-1.0.5 with the fix that resolves
the "undefined symbol: rb_thread_alive_p" problem?
Regards,
Chris
