Hello, I have installed the mongrel 1.2.0-pre2 gem into my project. But when I do rake db:test:prepare I see this output : cannot load such file – 1.9/http11 Anyone a idea how to solve this ? Roelof ---

While mongrel might work under Ruby 1.9, I’m not sure it will properly work due the changes in threads. Not to mention newer versions of Rails. I personally you move a rack-based web server, like Puma: > **[A Fast, Concurrent Web Server for Ruby & Rack - Puma](https://puma.io/)** > > Puma - A Fast, Concurrent Web Server for Ruby & Rack. Which uses the same parser from Mongrel and follows a similar philosofy. ## Cheers, ## Luis L.

I will look into this. I’m using mongrel to test a website I make with ruby on Rails. So it must can work with localhost instead of a real url. Roelof ---

One question : can Puma work together with Cucumber ? Roelof ---

The two are completely unrelated. One is a web server while the other is a testing/acceptance framework. I presume you want to test with cucumber your application, right? ## Cucumber will use Rack to connect to your application and test your controllers/stuff. (search the web if you don’t know what is it) ## Luis L. AREA 17 Perfection in design is achieved not when there is nothing more to add, but rather when there is nothing more to take away.

What I ment is for mongrel to start with capabary I had to insert this into env.rb Change Capybara server settingsAdd these lines to features/support/env.rb: Capybara.server\_port = 3001Capybara.app\_host = "localhost:3001"Capybara.server do |app, port| require ‘rack/handler/mongrel’ Rack::Handler::Mongrel.run(app, :Port =\> port)endMust I do the same for puma?
