Subject: [Mongrel] Mongrel behind Apache server as reverse proxy
Message-ID: <47ce4c8d122c12451593925cb4816fff@ruby-forum.com>

Hello

Have set up reverse proxy for running a ruby app on mongrel (on
windows)?

Apache has error in balancer log

client denied by server configuration

Is there something in Mongrel which is causing this?

And on browser get error

Forbidden
You don't have permission to access /appname on this server.

Thank you

I spent so much time on this pid sh.. googling for hours. Hope I can 
help others! Seems like running as a daemon solves the problem. just add 
-d at the end and it decides to create the pid file. I'm sorry if this 
isn't the problem/solution you guys are having.

mongrel_rails start -d

It really tricked me with its output on mongrel_rails.

** Starting Mongrel listening at 0.0.0.0:3000
** Starting Rails with development environment...
** Rails loaded.
** Loading any Rails specific GemPlugins
** Signals ready.  TERM => stop.  USR2 => restart.  INT => stop (no 
restart).
** Rails signals registered.  HUP => reload (without restart).  It might 
not work well.
** Mongrel 1.1.5 available at 0.0.0.0:3000

Of, course, neither restart nor stop worked, so I tried sending that 
USR2 signal manually, finding it's pid with ps, then

kill -USR2 20316

Back in the first term window I saw this:
* USR2 signal received.
** Restarting with arguments:  ruby 
/Library/Ruby/Gems/1.8/gems/mongrel-1.1.5/bin/mongrel_rails start
Can't restart unless in daemon mode.

OK, trying the obvious worked. You can see the pid file is there in the 
log directory. Or am I totally off here??
