Description
I reproduce here Etienne's comment in #6887 (Rails upgrade) :
Note that Mongrel 1.1.5 does not work anymore with Rails 2.3.8 or later because of 2 bugs respectively in rack 1.1.x and Mongrel 1.1.5.
See ticket 4690 in Rails tracker and ticket 5 in Mongrel's.
Until Mongrel 1.2.0 is out, it is required to add a mongrel.rb initializer to
config/initializers.
I can't reproduce with "mongrel + script/server", but I confirm "mongrel_rails" crashes, and I confirm the proposed initializer solves the problem on a development instance.
A few questions :- does anybody know if it affects Thin too ?
- can anybody test it some days in production to see if it doesn't have any drawback ? There's no feedback on rails lighthouse tracker for the moment..

#1 Updated by Etienne Massip about 1 year ago
I'm running it in production (low traffic, only 4-5 daily users) since this morning and had no problem until now.
Do you plan to commit it into config/initializers ?
I thought to simply add a HowTo when 1.2.0 is out...
#2 Updated by Jean-Baptiste Barth about 1 year ago
Yes, I think we should add it to config/initializers so it will be transparent for users. Or we will have tons of support requests for this, and Rails ticket isn't an easy read for everybody...

Hmmmm..., Mongrel 1.1.5 is released on May 22, 2008. Is this project developed at all?
#4 Updated by Etienne Massip 12 months ago
Last commit is dated of July 24, 2010.
But it is still used.

Most Active This Week shows 96.90% activity.
On the other side, http://mongrel.rubyforge.org/svn/ does not respond just now.
Besides of this, I have installed patch_for_mongrel.rb that resolves what is described in this thread. This is related to Mongrel_rails service "--prefix" that does not work well with Rails 2.3.x.
Regarding this, are both patches mongrel.rb and patch_for_mongrel.rb compatible? Are both needed in Rails 2.3.11 ?
Note that I do not understand Ruby, Ruby on Rails and it is possibly that I do not describe these things exactly.

Hit a bug with AJAX which I supposed is due to this path but not necessarily :
After some time of use, an AJAX request like parent task auto-complete lookup or adding a new category / version directly from the issue form will perform well but the next request (e.g. new parent task lookup or issue submission) will redirect the user to the login page (with a 401 "non authorized" HTTP error code).
As if last set cookie value was invalid.

Same for me since Redmine 1.1.2, when i try to add a relation between two issues. I am using Apache2/Passenger 2.2.8.

We use patch_for_mongrel.rb and mongrel.rb together, it is fine for now.

I am running now Redmine 1.2.0 and use mongrel.rb only and it seems all is OK. I never tried to see what would happen if both patches are in.

Hi, I placed both files mongrel.rb and patch_for_mongrel.rb in /<my-redmine-path>/config/initializers/ plus rails_6440_patch.rb
and I'm still "redirected"... and mongrel fails (log:
Error calling Dispatcher.dispatch #<NoMethodError: undefined method `[]' for nil:NilClass> /usr/lib/ruby/1.8/mongrel/cgi.rb:108:in `send_cookies'.....)
Please, let me know if I'm missing something or doing something wrong!!):
Thx in advance

Did you restart your server ?

#16 Updated by Alfredo Bonilla 8 months ago
Thanks for your answer Etienne... I found the problem... We did not install mongrel gems. We installed mongrel directly with apt-get.
The first IF in mongrel.rb patch asks for the RAILS version (2.3.11), ok... and for the GEM MONGREL 1.1.5... and, obviously, no gem, no condition satisfied... the patch was useless.
Now we are working without patch_for_mongrel.rb and without rails_6440_patch.rb.

Thanks for the clarification. I see a lot of trouble with Debian ruby gems packages...
