Upgrade problem - another blank page issue

Added by Alan Bowsher over 14 years ago

Same title, but different problem...

I just upgraded from 0.8 to 0.9.6. All the associated Ruby installs were upgraded to the correct versions. When I fire up the app from the server via a Putty session, it runs fine as long as I stay logged in. If I close the Putty session, when I hit the app from my desktop browser, I get a blank page as a response.

I can go to the same server and run 0.8 in the same fashion, log out, and not have any problems.

One error that I have seen in the log (although not consistently) is this:

Processing WelcomeController#index (for 192.168.6.181 at 2010-07-09 18:12:59) [GET]
Parameters: {"action"=>"index", "controller"=>"welcome"}
Redirected to http://192.168.6.21:3000/login?back_url=http%3A%2F%2F192.168.6.21%3A3000%2F
Filter chain halted as [:check_if_login_required] rendered_or_redirected.
Completed in 4ms (DB: 1) | 302 Found [http://192.168.6.21/]

Any suggestions?

Thanks...

What command do you use to run redmine?

I've used both "ruby script/server -e production&" and "ruby script/server webrick -e production&". The former was how I had it for 0.8, the latter is what the doc now says. Honestly, I don't know the difference.

I forgot to mention, the process doesn't die. But if I log out of the Putty terminal, it starts returning blank pages instead of those of the web app. Again, version 0.8 works fine.

Thanks for any help... this is frustrating because I like the ability to sort by a custom fields now in 0.9.6 (we use a Rank field with a numeric value), I'd like to use it.

Those aren't preferred or even advised solutions, but I think you should be able to use ruby script/server webrick -e production -d, the -d will daemonize the server and send it to the background, stopping it should work by finding its PID with ps and killing it with kill the_PID.

Wow, nice job, that fixed it. Thanks for the tip.
