Rails Not Launching

hms

I have used rbenv to install rails 2.7.5 and I have my directory setup with my rails project which works on my local machine, but on opalstack i don't think it is launching. I get the correct output from the start script but no server pid file is written and when i go to my URL i get a bad gateway error. Any pointers or suggestions are appreciated, thanks! The URL is id.mutantegg.com.

I'm not sure why but Puma >= v5 won't run rails as a daemon if RAILS_ENV=development.

To work around it, either set RAILS_ENV=production in your start script, or if you need to run in dev mode then do as follows:

Remove the -d flag from the rails command in your app's start script, eg:

LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/opt/lib GEM_HOME=$HOME/apps/app_name/env $PROJECTDIR/bin/bundle exec rails s -e $RAILS_ENV -p $APP_PORT -P $PIDFILE

Start the app via daemonize, eg:

daemonize ~/apps/name_of_app/start

This issue is one of the reasons we haven't rolled out a Rails 7 installer just yet, but we expect to have that solved soon 🙂
