Cannot make rack load the proper rails code in threadsafe mode

xuwenhao · October 10, 2010, 4:20am

Hi Buddies,

I am currently working on getting a spree project online by JRuby on
Rails. I am using Spree 0.11, Rails 2.3.8 and JRuby 1.5.3.
I also write quite a couple of extensions to meet our business for
spree and freeze the spree code in my source code at ${project}/vendor/
spree.

And I deployed it in Tomcat 6, it works well without the thread safe
feature.

For JRuby consume huge memory, I wanted to take the advantage of the
thread-safe ability of rails since Rails 2.3.8. So I add
config.threadsafe! in the production.rb and take the site online.

But I will get the following error which would not happen without the
config.threadsafe! line.

It looks like that while the request going directly through the metal
rack code, create_admin_user.rb, it could not find the User::Role.

Is there anything specific I should take care to get this work?

My best guess is that Spree has not been actively developed with the
“threadsafe!” option turned on, and as a result there is some code
that is assumed to be lazy-loaded that should be changed to be
eager-loaded. I’d suggest editing /app/metal/
create_admin_user.rb to require ‘user/role’ up front or possibly
adding a config/initializers/eager_load.rb where you run these
necessary requires when in production/threadsafe mode.
