Windows Upgrade 0.9.2 to 0.9.3 problem

I tried to upgrade from 0.9.2 to 0.9.3 using the Sep 14 “how to backup and update…” instructions but it was unsuccessful. Checking the task manager, 2 ruby processes keep running until they consume 60MBytes of memory each and then disappear and start from 0 again. This process repeats indefinitely. Trying to connect with a browser gives a proxy server error with unable to GET. restoring the original redmine directory and everything is back OK with 0.9.2. Any help would be much appreciated.

Hi shoti,

Can you try adding a file:

apps/redmine/config/initializers/mongrel_cluster_with_rails_23_fix.rb

With the contents:

module ActionController
  class AbstractRequest < ActionController::Request
    def self.relative_url_root=(path)
      ActionController::Base.relative_url_root=(path)
    end
    def self.relative_url_root
      ActionController::Base.relative_url_root
    end
  end
end

Hi Carlos,

Thanks for the advice – I added the file, re-installed Redmine 0.9.3 and everything now appears to be working correctly. By the way, do you know if it is correct to have two ruby.exe and two mongrel_service.exe processes running (seen from the windows task manager). This always seems to be the case with every version of Redmine that I have installed.

Hi,

Yes that is correct. The Remdine Stack uses a Mongrel cluster with two mongrel servers. We use this default configuration to a better performance in small teams.
