ruby daemons - running but not functioning - ruby

I have created my first ruby daemon and it functions fine for about a day but then it stops functioning but it still appears in the /var/run folder.
here is my control code -
require 'rubygems'
require 'daemons'
dir = File.dirname(__FILE__)
options = {
:app_name => "rk_mail",
:dir_mode => :system,
:backtrace => true,
:log_output => true,
:monitor => true
}
Daemons.run(dir + '/mail_receiver.rb', options)
I have checked the logs but they dont show any errors
Thanks, alex

The problem is that your script will change its directory to "/" when it starts the daemon process.
Here's a way to fix it:
current_dir = Dir.pwd
options = {
:backtrace => true,
:app_name => "test",
:log_dir => "#{current_dir}/log",
:log_output => true,
:dir_mode => :normal,
:monitor => true
}
This will put the logs inside the log folder that's the same directory as your script.

Set secure session Cookie in Rails 2

I have a Rails 2 application. And I want to set the session cookie to secure. By default it will be http only.To implement the same, I added the :secure=> true in config/initializers/session_store.rb as below:
ActionController::Base.session = {
:key => '_app_session',
:secret => '123.......',
:secure => true
}
But it does not work. However, the same thing works well in Rails 3.
This worked for me in the past. In config/environment.rb:
config.action_controller.session = {
:session_key => '_app_session',
:secret => '123.......',
:secure => true
}

ChromeOptions To Not Prompt For Download When Running RemoteDriver

I'm trying to debug why when running remote webdriver tests on a headless linux host download dialogs are presented in chrome. I believe the chrome version is 45.
Couple of Env Details
Selenium 2.53 (gem)
Selenium 2.53 Server Jar
Chrome Driver 2.21
The framework/Tests are written in Ruby utilizing Capybara for driving web tests. Here is a brief snippet of how the remote driver is initialized.
prefernces = {
:download => {
:prompt_for_download => false,
:default_directory => '/home/john.doe/Downloads/'
}
}
caps = Selenium::WebDriver::Remote::Capabilities.chrome()
caps['chromeOptions'] = {'prefs' => prefernces}
http_client = Selenium::WebDriver::Remote::Http::Default.new
http_client.timeout = 240
options = {
browser: :remote,
url: "http://<server_url>:4444/wd/hub",
desired_capabilities: caps,
http_client: http_client
}
# Returns Remote Driver
Capybara::Selenium::Driver.new(app, options)
I have verified via the hub that the chromeOptions are set, but when a file is downloaded, we're presented with a file dialog prompt.
I've burned the candle looking for a solution to this problem. Thanks for the help and consideration!
try removing the / from the end of the default_directory and also setting directory_upgrade: true. Other than that make sure the browser has permission to write to the selected directory (note also the correct spelling of preferences)
preferences = {
:download => {
:default_directory => '/home/john.doe/Downloads',
:directory_upgrade => true,
:prompt_for_download => false,
}
}
caps = Selenium::WebDriver::Remote::Capabilities.chrome(
'chromeOptions' => {'prefs' => preferences}
)
Here is an example to download a file with Capybara / Selenium / Chrome :
require 'capybara'
require 'selenium-webdriver'
Capybara.register_driver :chrome do |app|
Capybara::Selenium::Driver.new(app,
:url => "http://localhost:4444/wd/hub",
:browser => :chrome,
:desired_capabilities => Selenium::WebDriver::Remote::Capabilities.chrome(
'chromeOptions' => {
'prefs' => {
'download.default_directory' => File.expand_path("C:\\Download"),
'download.directory_upgrade' => true,
'download.prompt_for_download' => false,
'plugins.plugins_disabled' => ["Chrome PDF Viewer"]
}
}
)
)
end
session = Capybara::Session.new(:chrome)
session.visit "https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/foundation/documents"
session.click_link "IRS Form 872-C"
sleep 20

Vagrant/Puppet - Provision Failing (MySQL Not Working)

I have tried different virtual boxes, I have changed tons of configurations (probably recreated, reloaded and reprovisioned 50-100 times) -- it has to do with the MySQL module from Puppet -- which is apparently working for tens of thousands of others, so something I am doing is wrong.

Here is the error message I am receiving (the first):
==> ==> default: Error: Could not start Service[mysqld]: Execution of '/sbin/start mysql' returned 1:
It seems that Puppet is trying to import the database before installing the MySQL server package.
Keep in mind that Puppet don't care about which resources you write first, if you need to manage something in a specific order you have to declare relationships explicitly. So in your case the following statement:
exec { "database_import":
timeout => 300,
command => "/bin/gzip -dc /vagrant/manifests/provision.sql.gz | /usr/bin/mysql -u root -p[root_password]",
require => Class['::mysql::server']
}
Could set the correct order for that resource. Possibly you'll need to declare additional relationships in a similar manner.

Rails 3 cache not working. Dalli

development.rb cache configuration
config.action_controller.perform_caching = true
config.cache_store = :dalli_store, 'localhost:11211',
{ :namespace => APP_NAME, :expires_in => 3.month, :compress => true }
production.rb cache configuration
config.action_controller.perform_caching = true
config.cache_store = :dalli_store, 'localhost:11211',
{ :namespace => APP_NAME, :expires_in => 3.month, :compress => true }
in console
rails c production
Loading production environment (Rails 3.2.3)
1.9.3-p125 :001 > Rails.cache.write 'res', "Hello World"
=> true
1.9.3-p125 :002 > Rails.cache.read 'res'
=> nil
1.9.3-p125 :003 >
Why?
memcached has a limit of 30 days if you defined the expiry that way - Memcache maximum key expiration time

How to setup a mail interceptor in rails 3.0.3?

I am using rails 3.0.3, ruby 1.9.2-p180, mail (2.2.13). I m trying to setup a mail interceptor but I am getting the following error
/home/abhimanyu/Aptana_Studio_3_Workspace/delivery_health_dashboard_03/config/initializers/mailer_config.rb:16:in `<top (required)>': uninitialized constant DevelopmentMailInterceptor (NameError)
How do i fix it?
The code I am using is shown below:
config/initializer/mailer_config.rb
ActionMailer::Base.default_charset = "utf-8"
ActionMailer::Base.default_content_type = "text/html"
ActionMailer::Base.raise_delivery_errors = true
ActionMailer::Base.perform_deliveries = true
ActionMailer::Base.delivery_method = :smtp
ActionMailer::Base.smtp_settings = {
:enable_starttls_auto => true,
:address => "secure.emailsrvr.com",
:port => '25',
:domain => "domain",
:user_name => "user_name",
:password => "password",
:authentication => :plain
}
ActionMailer::Base.register_interceptor(DevelopmentMailInterceptor) if Rails.env.development?
lib/development_mail_interceptor.rb
class DevelopmentMailInterceptor
def self.delivering_email(message)
message.to = "email"
end
end
Thanks in advance.
require 'development_mail_interceptor' #add this line
ActionMailer::Base.register_interceptor(DevelopmentMailInterceptor) if Rails.env.development?
I found it easier to install the mailcatcher gem. Then in development.rb:
config.action_mailer.delivery_method = :smtp
config.action_mailer.smtp_settings = {
:address => "`localhost`",
:port => 1025
}
Then just run "mailcatcher" and hit http://localhost:1080/ in a browser. It runs in the background, but can be quit directly from the browser. Gives you text+html views, source, and analysis with fractal, if you swing that way. Super-clean.
