Sorry if this is a repost. I never received a successful post msg.

So this is my first deployment. I’ve used Capistrano and Git. CPanel  
to install all the gems (with some added server support for additional  
gems). CPanel is used to start/stop the app. In development mode the  
app starts and runs into a db problem (expected I never copied the  
sqlite3 db). But it starts. In production mode the mongrel instance  
never fully loads it looks like it stalling on something to do with  
authlogic. The mongrel.log shows the following:

\*\* Starting Mongrel listening at 0.0.0.0:12003

And here is my environment file:

RAILS\_GEM\_VERSION = ‘2.3.5’ unless defined? RAILS\_GEM\_VERSION

# Bootstrap the Rails environment, frameworks, and default

configuration  
require File.join(File.dirname( **FILE** ), ‘boot’)

ENV[‘GEM\_PATH’] = ‘/home/user/ruby/gems’  
$:.push(“/home/user/ruby/gems”)

Rails::Initializer.run do |config|

config.gem “authlogic”, :version =\> ‘2.1.3’  
config.gem “jeffp-  
enumerated\_attribute”, :lib=\>“enumerated\_attribute”  
config.gem ‘will\_paginate’, :version =\> ‘~\> 2.3.12’, :source =\>  
‘[http://gemcutter.org](http://gemcutter.org)’

config.time\_zone = ‘UTC’  
end

Any ideas why it won’t load in production mode?
