Action Controller Exception: LSWS 3.1

[bdm]

Hi All,

Just d/l and configured the LSWS 3.1 STD on Ubuntu 6.10 with Ruby-LSAPI-2.3

Setup the VHosts & Listeners are per Bob Silva's Indepth Tutorial.

Two errors have occured:

1). When I was seting up the VHost and had to enter the vhconf information, I did this =>

VH Name: radiant
VH Root: /srv/www/radiant
Config file: $VH_ROOT/config/vhconf.xml

Saved the edits and received error output =>

*file /srv/www/radiant/config/vhconf.xml does not exist. <a href="javascript:createFile('configFile')">CLICK TO CREATE</a>

... exactly like that, the 'create' button was not correctly rendered.

To remedy this at least to complete the setup, I did =>

$ cd /srv/www/radiant/config
$ sudo touch vhconf.xml
$ sudo chmod 755 vhconf.xml

This produced an error of /../vhconf.xml is not writable, which was rectified by =>

$ sudo chmod 777 vhconf.xml

However now I actually have an empty vhconf.xml. Is it supposed to be empty or was the failed 'create' supposed to make/script it?

2). After applying all the edits, saving them and executing a graceful restart, I opened a browser and went to =>

http://my.slice.ip.address

and received this error output =>

 ActiveRecord::StatementInvalid in SiteController#show_page

Mysql::Error: Table 'fourwalls_development.config' doesn't exist: SHOW FIELDS FROM config

Any help appreciated, BDM

Did some searching, and the solution to the MySql problem was;

$ sudo rake db:migrate

Now the webserver is working, but there is no display except for;

Application error (Apache)

Change this error message for exceptions thrown outside of an action (like in Dispatcher setups or broken Ruby code) in public/500.html.

Being served from http://my.slice.ip.address/admin/welcome ... I'll do some reading here.

Cheers, bdm.

It is recommended to store vhost configuration file under $SERVER_ROOT/conf/.
Our rails templated is highly recommended.

For the application error, you can try WEBrick first, if it works well then try trouble shoot LiteSpeed.

Hi Mistwang,

Took your advice from the last post and made the config file => $SERVER_ROOT/conf

Now, after 5 or so mins editing in the Admin Console, I am getting PHP error output at the top of my panel. Try to save changes, exit and re-enter via server:7080,

Firefox can't establish a connection to the server at xx.xx.xx.xx:7080

This happened last night also but I put it down to randomness, but now it seems to be a real error.

cheers, bdm

Followup:

Hard rebooted server, checked logs, supposedly started OK.

Request connection via server.ip ... failed
Request connection via server.ip:7080 ... failed

I'll remove /opt/lsws etc, reinstall/reconfigure, if it fails again, will rollback to ver 3.0RC2

Cheers, bdm

Yeah, just do a clean reinstall and follow our Easy Rails howto

Fresh install of LSWS 3.0.1 STD, 10 or so mins into configuration, getting these PHP errors appearing on the console, while logged in as admin user.

This is the 5th time I have totally rebuilt my system, to give LSWS a fair chance at a clean install. Comments/suggestions welcome.

Those warnings has been fixed in upcoming 3.0.2 release. can be safely ignored now.
Thanks for reporting this issue.

[bdm]

Thanks Mistwang,

Glad to see you guys clipped these errors and they can be ignored, but unfortunately they crash the Litespeed webserver and neither port:80 nor port:7080 are available after that. Even a hard reboot doesn't seem to bring it back up again, only a clean reinstall of LSWS.

How long before the LSWS ver 3.0.2 is available for release? Until then I might as well use 3.0RC2.

Is it a VPS?
You need to change the admin listener from *:7080 to <your_ip>:7080 the first thing after installation.
