Mongrel not starting

Hello all, I'm have a problem starting Mongrel.

I get the following...

user-fc0e6f:ProjectDB johnmcleod$ script/server mongrel ^C/Library/Ruby/Gems/1.8/gems/mongrel-1.1.5/lib/mongrel/gems.rb:11:in `require': Interrupt   from /Library/Ruby/Gems/1.8/gems/mongrel-1.1.5/lib/mongrel.rb:17   from /Library/Ruby/Site/1.8/rubygems/custom_require.rb:36:in `gem_original_require'   from /Library/Ruby/Site/1.8/rubygems/custom_require.rb:36:in `require'   from /Library/Ruby/Gems/1.8/gems/activesupport-2.3.5/lib/active_support/dependencies.rb:156:in `require'   from /Library/Ruby/Gems/1.8/gems/activesupport-2.3.5/lib/active_support/dependencies.rb:521:in `new_constants_in'   from /Library/Ruby/Gems/1.8/gems/activesupport-2.3.5/lib/active_support/dependencies.rb:156:in `require'   from /Library/Ruby/Gems/1.8/gems/rack-1.0.1/lib/rack/handler/mongrel.rb:1   from /Library/Ruby/Gems/1.8/gems/rack-1.0.1/lib/rack/handler.rb:17:in `const_get'   from /Library/Ruby/Gems/1.8/gems/rack-1.0.1/lib/rack/handler.rb:17:in `get'   from /Library/Ruby/Gems/1.8/gems/rack-1.0.1/lib/rack/handler.rb:17:in `each'   from /Library/Ruby/Gems/1.8/gems/rack-1.0.1/lib/rack/handler.rb:17:in `get'   from /Library/Ruby/Gems/1.8/gems/rails-2.3.5/lib/commands/server.rb:45   from /Library/Ruby/Site/1.8/rubygems/custom_require.rb:31:in `gem_original_require'   from /Library/Ruby/Site/1.8/rubygems/custom_require.rb:31:in `require'   from script/server:3

I'm not sure where to go from here. I've uninstalled and reinstalled via "sudo gem install mongrel"

I have   rack-1.0.0   rack-1.0.1   rack-1.1.0 installed.

if that helps.

Thank you for any help with this.

Maybe a gem list would help too.

Interrupt usually means that you killed it (eg control-C). DId you ?

Thank you for the reply.

Yes, after 1 minute of nothing.

Nothing?

You're going to have to help us to help you: How are you trying to start it? (command line? in an IDE? in a script?) What gets displayed? (** Starting Mongrel listening at 0.0.0.0:3000, etc) What OS are you on?!

Sorry about that.

OS: Mac

At the rails project root directory, using the Terminal, "script/server mongrel".

When I say "nothing" I mean a blank screen. The cursor goes to the next line and that's it.

I've also used "ruby script/server mongrel -debug" with the same results.

When I interrupt the process (CTRL+C), I've been getting this...

user-fc0e6f:ProjectDB johnmcleod$ ruby script/server mongrel -debug ^C/Library/Ruby/Gems/1.8/gems/mongrel-1.1.5/lib/mongrel/gems.rb:11:in `require': Interrupt   from /Library/Ruby/Gems/1.8/gems/mongrel-1.1.5/lib/mongrel.rb:17   from /Library/Ruby/Site/1.8/rubygems/custom_require.rb:36:in `gem_original_require'   from /Library/Ruby/Site/1.8/rubygems/custom_require.rb:36:in `require'   from /Library/Ruby/Gems/1.8/gems/activesupport-2.3.5/lib/active_support/dependencies.rb:156:in `require'   from /Library/Ruby/Gems/1.8/gems/activesupport-2.3.5/lib/active_support/dependencies.rb:521:in `new_constants_in'   from /Library/Ruby/Gems/1.8/gems/activesupport-2.3.5/lib/active_support/dependencies.rb:156:in `require'   from /Library/Ruby/Gems/1.8/gems/rack-1.0.1/lib/rack/handler/mongrel.rb:1   from /Library/Ruby/Gems/1.8/gems/rack-1.0.1/lib/rack/handler.rb:17:in `const_get'   from /Library/Ruby/Gems/1.8/gems/rack-1.0.1/lib/rack/handler.rb:17:in `get'   from /Library/Ruby/Gems/1.8/gems/rack-1.0.1/lib/rack/handler.rb:17:in `each'   from /Library/Ruby/Gems/1.8/gems/rack-1.0.1/lib/rack/handler.rb:17:in `get'   from /Library/Ruby/Gems/1.8/gems/rails-2.3.5/lib/commands/server.rb:45   from /Library/Ruby/Site/1.8/rubygems/custom_require.rb:31:in `gem_original_require'   from /Library/Ruby/Site/1.8/rubygems/custom_require.rb:31:in `require'   from script/server:3

Thanks for the reply.

Thank you for everyone's reply.

I finally made it work.

Here's the steps I did.

sudo gem uninstall mongrel sudo gem uninstall fastthread sudo gem install mongrel sudo gem install fastthread

As I'm not that experienced with this, I'll assume that one or the other installation was bad.

I found the solution here:

Thanks again.
