Hi,

I've got an app running hobo 1.3.2 with rails 3.0.17 and ruby 1.9.3 under RVM. All works fine on my development Ubuntu machine but when I deploy to the production environment (ubuntu, same gems, RVM, Passenger) the theme goes missing. Instead of the custom theme that I have in the development environment I get the default 'clean' theme (plus a search results box and a couple of oddly placed spinning icons). Other than that, the behaviour of the app seems ok. There is no sign of an error in the log/production or apache logs. If I view source I can see that the html includes

when it should read

yet app/views/taglibs/application.dryml properly contains

<set-theme name="white"/>

And if I edit the file to put some junk output in the footer and touch tmp/restart.txt I can see that output so I know the file is being read and compiled through dryml.

This has been driving me crazy for a couple of days now. I thought that it might be something to do with apache/passenger but the really odd thing is that on the production machine I can do this...

RAILS_ENV=production bundle exec rails s

=> Booting WEBrick

=> Rails 3.0.17 application starting in production on http://0.0.0.0:3000

=> Call with -d to detach

=> Ctrl-C to shutdown server

[2012-12-03 16:33:10] INFO WEBrick 1.3.1

[2012-12-03 16:33:10] INFO ruby 1.9.3 (2012-10-12) [x86_64-linux]

[2012-12-03 16:33:10] INFO WEBrick::HTTPServer#start: pid=7376 port=3000

Then on a new window on the production server

curl http://localhost:3000/

...

....

I.e. I get the same problem with WebBrick!

What on earth can be going on to mean that set-theme is being ignored/failing?

Any help greatly appreciated!!

Cheers

Rupert

P.S. Full output for the curl is...

I think the changes are available when the validations run, so maybe
it's as simple as adding "password_changed &&" to the front of the
password validation.

That or maybe redefining changing_password? to not include check for
current_password. Thanks

Rupert,

Try removing the call to precompile_tablibs in
config/initializers/hobo.rb. Let us know if that helps.

BTW, Hobo 2.0 has a much improved way of handling themes.

cheers,
Bryan

Hi Bryan,

Sorry this thread's title is mangled I rushed hitting send last night and hadn't cleaned up the subject etc.

Thanks for the help, I haven't got a file config/initializers/hobo.rb or indeed a precompile_tablibs in the project - either on the development or production machines. Is this odd? The code's in https://github.com/meesern/automics_api.

I'm not sure where to look next. Whereabouts in the filesystem is DRYML compiler output saved?

Cheers

Rupert

It's in config/initializers/dryml_taglibs.rb. Try commenting that
out to see if that helps.

Bryan

Hmmm, not sure why grep missed that but it does help thanks!

With my newly working custom theme If I restore the line in config/initializers/dryml_taglibs.rb (and touch tmp/restart.txt) I go back to seeing the problem - which surprises me a little.

Am happy to leave it commented out for now, but I guess there's a performance penalty (and as I'm implementing a mobile app API I need the performance). More importantly it's just a symptom of something deeper I guess.

Nevertheless I am happy not to be stuck or have the project waiting on me. Thanks.

The theme is stored in a global variable in Hobo 1.3; the
precompile_taglibs is compiling your files before the variable is set.

Given that theming is much improved in 2.0, I'm not going to fix that
bug for 1.3. I will accept patches though, if somebody sends me one.

Switching to 2.0 will bring other benefits for your app. 2.0 uses
respond_with rather than respond_to, so provides sane JSON behaviour
out of the box.

As for your performance concern, all precompile_taglibs does is shift
the perfomance hit for compiling the taglibs from the first request to
app startup.

I usually do a few requests to populate the cache immediately after
restarting an app, so precompile_taglibs does nothing useful for me.

cheers,
Bryan

That's good, thanks. I'll will do nicely until I migrate to 2.0.
