Hi All,
We are having a few strange problems in production.
The Rails 2.3/ Ruby 1.8.6 application is hosted using Apache/ mod_proxy/
mongrel_cluster (managed by monit) running on CentOS. This connects to
a PostgreSQL instance running on a Windows 2003 server (it’s behind a
load balancer but the PostgreSQL port is redirected to one machine.
Suddenly, without reason or upgrade, the Rails app is returning 500 and
nothing is in the Rails log - not in the mongrel logs, not in the
production log. We seem to be able to safely connect to a static image
file - so, it should not be the Apache, we think.
We checked a few things:
- mongrel has the rights to folders like tmp and log
- the disk can be written to
Since nothing is in the logs, we are baffled - what could we check?
Thanks,
Mohit.
