Seems like when I ctrl-C on the mac using webrick, and then
restarting I get “address already in use” - I’ve killed every process
I’ve seen, including doing a ‘sudo ps’… I really don’t want to do a
-p to get out of this. How can I release the port? Seems like a lot of
processes are getting filtered out on the mac.
I’m not finding the config method in Login Engine, which tells me
Login Engine is not getting loaded. I’ve replaced my public directory
with the mac generated version, are there any other suggestions?

Releasing the port is not in your control. The process should to do
it before it dies.
Are you running in production mode? Could it be a buggy version of
webrick?
I never had this problem with webrick or lighttpd. You might try
ligttpd.
$ ./script/server
=> Booting lighttpd (use ‘script/server webrick’ to force WEBrick)
=> Rails application started on http://0.0.0.0:3000
=> Call with -d to detach
=> Ctrl-C to shutdown server (see config/lighttpd.conf for options)

Webrick now fails with the error from Login Engine:
./script/server webrick
=> Booting WEBrick…
./script/…/config/…/config/environment.rb:56: undefined method config' for LoginEngine:Module (NoMethodError) from /usr/local/lib/ruby/site_ruby/1.8/rubygems/custom_require.rb:27:in require’
Maybe the real problem is the LoginEngine not being loaded? I see on
the web most of these solutions are restarting the server after
modifying environment.rb, but obviously that’s not the case here.
Or mongrel. It’s good enough that rails-edge uses it by default (if
it’s installed)
gem install mongrel
mongrel_rails start
That’s easy enough. I haven’t made the transition to Mongrel yet,
but I should be doing it sooner than later. Can you say what caveats
there are in transitioning a project from Lighttpd to Mongrel? I’ve
configured the lighttpd.conf file how I want it. Are there
transition guides?
By the way, Lighttpd is used over Webrick when it’s installed too.

You need to clear out the stuck process first. Did you reboot
first? The point is, if your socket is clear to start with, and you
use another server, you should be able to quit them and not get this
problem again.
The reboot did clear out the port connection. I’m going to keep looking
into netstat, hopefully I can determine how to find the process that is
holding the port hostage. I’d rather not reboot when I have this issue.
If I find anything I’ll update the thread, netstat had a lot of
information.
I’ve nailed down the core issue to links - when the directories script,
config and public are links instead of directories, I see the config
method not found in LoginEngine. I was using links for those
directories because I want my synchronizer to avoid syncing them to the
server.
Why would rails care if I’m using links? Seems like it’s detecting all
the directories, but not loading the plugins.

On the dev environment? None at all. The production set up involves a
different architecture, and you’ll probably still want lighty as your
front server. mongrel.rubyforge.org has excellent guides for
deployment. Developing (on Windows esp, Ruby is slow) with Mongrel is
way faster.
