Rack 1.0.1 don't works god with litespeed
 

I have installed rack 1.0.1 gem and it return error on every POST request.

The problem is in rack-1.0.1/lib/rack/handler/lsws.rb :
in rack 1.0.0 it was something like this:
after this change post request works again but i think lsws should check why it won't works with RewindableInput with is default for other handlers (exemple: fastcgi)

Here is error:

UPDATE:
RewindableInput class require IO as arg but in lsws.rb it passed $stdin.read.to_s also passing $stdin don't works but if we write

All works correct.

It is a bad idea to use both RewindableInput and StringIO. StringIO buffer the POST body in memory (in a string, bad for large post). RewindableInput buffer POST body in a temp file, which is very slow. Using both is like getting the worse part from both.

what error message do you get with
rack_input = RewindableInput.new($stdin)

Seems it work in my environment.

For me it don't works well.

exemple on developemnt machine i gets exception:
ActionController::InvalidAuthenticityToken
on production something like no body error

With StringIO all works ok.

Same issue here ?
 

Hi!

I'm getting what seems to be the same error here:

My setup is:
- ruby 1.8.7 (2009-06-12 patchlevel 174) [i686-linux]
- rails 2.3.4
- rack 1.0.1
- Ubuntu 8.04.3 LTS
- easy setup from litespeed

Is there anyone facing the same issue currently ? Is there a recommended fix ?

thanks for any hint - if there's anything I can do to help diagnose and fix the issue, please tell me.

cheers,

how about try rack 1.0.0 instead of 1.0.1?

rack 1.0 works rack 1.0.1 works too after fix that i provided

hi,

thanks for the tips! Turns out things seem to work with rack 1.0.0 instead of 1.0.1.

Maybe there is something to investigate for the later releases of Litespeed though - in case the change brought by 1.0.1 becomes the rule.

If it helps, here are the release notes of 1.0.1.

Thanks!

I haven't tried this yet - will be trying shortly though.

Just wanted to mention that the latest version of Rails (2.3.5) has a dependency of Rack 1.0.1 so this will need a fix.

LiteSpeed staff - is the fix suggested by Grzegorz recommended? Or you do you have a better solution?

Kind Regards
Luke
