Mongrel missing

Hi!

I'm trying to deploy my application, but running into a problem. I've deployed it before and saw that there were files in the ./script directory that do not exist anymore. Such files are mongrel and nginx.

I was wondering how these files get generated. Do they get installed when I install the gem? I've tried to do 'gem install mongrel' on my client/local box, but the files do not end up in the script directory.

Thanks, mike

Mike -

script/server will use mongrel if it's installed and webrick if not

so installing the gem is all you need to do

Interesting... My org has a capfile that I used. After checking it out, it looks like it actually writes a 'mongrel' file in the script directory. The strange thing is that sometimes it does and sometimes it doesn't. So, I think I've narrowed it down a little bit. But nonetheless, it's good to know what the directory does.

thanks, mike
