[Instiki] mongrel_rails and apache for instiki

[Matthias Tarasiewicz]

hello charlie,

here is the setup we use for instiki on our servers using mongrel_cluster

---
user: mongrel
cwd: /var/www/sites/instiki.org/instiki
log_file: log/mongrel.log
port: "12000"
environment: production
group: mongrel
address: instiki.5uper.net
pid_file: tmp/pids/mongrel.pid
servers: 1

should be quite self-explaining. you might want to use
mod_proxy_balancer (if you are on apache2) see
http://blog.innerewut.de/2006/04/21/scaling-rails-with-apache-2-2-mod_proxy_balancer-and-mongrel

for a better performance, you might want to try nginx
(http://nginx.net/) which is said to have a better performance than
apache2 and should compile on most systems without any problems (no
dependencies). we are planning to move the main instiki site to nginx
soon.

regards,
matthias
