I get nil from params[:model] in create action of my controller for the  
first request when I start my mongrel server by using mongrel\_rails  
start. After that for second and third time are ok. In addition, if I  
start my Mongrel by using script/server, it doesn’t have any problems at  
all. It is different by starting mongrel server between script/server  
and mongrel\_rails start? Have you ever faced this problem?
