Passenger 2.2.11 packages for Ubuntu 8.04 Hardy

The last Passenger release, 2.2.10, has a bug that causes Apache to freeze when used under moderate load (Phusion say high load but we’ve seen it on quite moderate conditions).  We recommend that anyone using Passenger 2.2.10 upgrade to 2.2.11 asap.  Ubuntu Hardy packages are now available in our repository.

Updates from the Still - apache2.conf

At Rails Machine, we have recently seen problems on a few deploys where Apache’s workers become overwhelmed and unable to serve new requests, even static ones. While we haven’t identified the root cause yet, we suspect either a recent update to The Browser Which Shall Remain Unnamed causes it to abuse the length of time connections stay alive or there may be something lurking in the recent 2.2.10 Passenger release.

Passenger 2.2.10 packages for Ubuntu 8.04 Hardy

Phusion released Passenger 2.2.10 this week, fixing some bundler compatibility bugs and a file descriptor bug that could lead to “mysterious crashes”.

We’ve built our Ubuntu Hardy packages for i386 and AMD64 architectures which are now available from the Brightbox apt repository.  We’ve also upgraded our librack-ruby packages to 1.1.0.

Smooth Devoperations: Deploying Rails 3 with Moonshine

Setting up virtualization on Ubuntu with KVM

These instructions have been tested on Ubuntu 9.10 (Karmic) 64-bit. Skip right to the instructions if you’re short on time.

InfiniDB, Infobright and MonetDB - Day 3: MonetDB

Day 3 of my database exploration mission brings me to MonetDB. Binary downloads are available for Debian, Fedora, Ubuntu and (strangely!) Windows! If we still had any Windows users left here at HQ then it'd be a rare treat, but instead (as usual) our platform of choice (Centos 5) isn't directly available in binary form.

Passenger 2.2.9 packages for Ubuntu 8.04 Hardy

The Phusion team released Passenger 2.2.9 today, which adds support for Rails 3, the GEM bundler, and fixes a couple of bugs.  As usual Brightbox are providing Ubuntu Hardy packages for i386 and AMD64 architectures, available now from the Brightbox apt repository.

Tools of the trade

Peter Cooper of Ruby Inside recently asked if people wanted to write about the things that they use in their development work. So I jumped squarely onto that band wagon…
