Hi,

My rails app (hosted on Dreamhost) often gives the dreaded “Rails  
Application Failed to Start Properly” error when it has been left alone  
for  
a while. I have a suspicion that this could be due to the fact that I’m  
running the Apache/FastCGI-solution, which, according to  
[Peak Obsession](http://wiki.rubyonrails.com/rails/pages/Gotcha) doesn’t like “puts”  
statements at all.

I tend to get warnings such as “Skipping integrity check. You have no  
system  
roles set up; once your database tables are set up, run rake bootstrap  
to  
create the basic roles.” even when everything works as it should, and I  
am  
wondering if user\_engine.rb could be modified to only output these  
warnings  
in development mode, or if a configuration option could be added to omit  
all  
puts-statements?

Thanks,

Casper F.

Please create a ticket on [http://dev.rails-engines.org/](http://dev.rails-engines.org/) about this -  
you’re probably right. However, you should probably run the bootstrap  
task if you haven’t.
