This error occurred while accessing the wiki ("Processing WikiController#index" in the log) but seemed to crash the entire application. Trace from log attached below:

Rendering /var/www/redmine/redmine-0.7.0/public/500.html (500 Internal Server Error)

I just realized that 0.7.1 is now available. If this problem was fixed in 0.7.1, my apologies.

It looks like a passenger relative problem. Can you give more informations, like the output of:
ruby script/about

Please?

2008-05-14 14:05 - Steve Woodrow

Here is the output of ruby script/about:

I'm not able to reproduce.
Could check the 'settings' table in your Redmine database and see if there is a column 'name'.
Do you get this error only when viewing the wiki ? Finally, could you try to restart the app and maybe upgrade to 0.7.1 ?

2008-05-15 11:32 - Thomas Lecavelier

Steve, if you upgrade something on your box, think about upgrading your gem version: 0.9.4 is very old. 1.1.1 should be far better.

2008-05-15 17:40 - Steve Woodrow

I've upgraded Redmine to 0.7.1 and will see what happens.

To clarify, this error only occurs sporadically, but when it does occur I need to restart apache. Thinking about it more, this leads me to believe it's more likely a Phusion Passenger (mod_rails) issue. Perhaps you want to close this issue until (if ever) it becomes clear that the fault lies with Redmine?

Also, re: a gems version of 0.9.4, I will try upgrading -- the higher-version packages on Portage (I'm running Gentoo) are not marked for release just yet, but I'll give them a shot.

Thanks!

Also, with respect to Jean-Philippe's question (http://www.redmine.org/issues/show/1234#note-3), yes, there is a column 'name' in the 'settings' table.

2008-05-16 17:22 - Jean-Philippe Lang

  • Category set to Wiki
  • Status changed from New to Closed
  • Affected version deleted (0.7.0)
  • Resolution set to Invalid

OK Steve, reopen this ticket if needed.

FWIW, I'm experiencing the same issues, with redmine 7.1 and Passenger.
