Mongrel 1.0

Posted by rick January 23, 2007 @ 03:08 PM

To coincide with Rails 1.2.1, Zed just made Mongrel 1.0.1 official. He also points out that he started working on Mongrel around January, making it around 1 year old too. Congrats to Zed and everyone else that contributed to the application and to the wonderful Mongrel community.

    I downloaded the gem from rubyforge and installed from local. all well. Weird.

    Just updated it on my local machine and anything is OK. Weird indeed :).

    Mad props to Zed – he single-handedly made using RoR vastly easier. Anybody who tried using mod_ruby and whatever awful hacks knows exactly what I’m talking about.

    gem update mongrel -y

    worked fine for me. (Linux)

    Zed is the man. To me, Mongrel is the only viable way of running a stable, high-performance Rails site. FCGI would have permanently held Rails down

    gem update mongrel -y

    works for me on XP SP2 and Linux

    Thanks Zed

    Hey Alan, I’ve been having that same problem for a while now on my FreeBSD machine. Haven’t figured out what’s causing it. It usually happens when RubyGems asks you to input which version you want installed. I suspect it has something to do with the new 0.9.1 version of RubyGems.

    Can’t figure out how to use the latest version of mongrel_service gem install mongrel_service. The newer option only installs the service::install and service::remove commands. service::start and service::stop which are obviously required for it to do anything seem to be missing, unless the command to start and stop the service has changed…
