Error with large number of flickr images

tdellaringa · July 29, 2006, 2:07pm

Hi All,

When I create a page which references more than 4 or 5 flickr images
I get the error “Application error
Typo failed to start properly”. I’m using Apache 2 and mod_fcgid,
when I start typo in development mode with lighttpd it does work.

This is now in my log file:
[Sat Jul 29 14:03:28 2006] [error] [client 86.80.117.89] Premature
end of script headers: dispatch.fcgi
[Sat Jul 29 14:03:28 2006] [notice] mod_fcgid: process /home/virtual/
degrunt.nl/www/public/dispatch.fcgi(10006) exit(communication error),

[Sat Jul 29 14:03:28 2006] [notice] mod_fcgid: process /home/virtual/

get stop signal 9
[Sat Jul 29 14:03:34 2006] [warn] mod_fcgid: process 10008 graceful
kill fail, sending SIGKILL

These are my settings:

AddHandler fcgid-script .fcgi
SocketPath /var/lib/apache2/fcgid/sock
DefaultInitEnv RAILS_ENV production
IdleTimeout 600
ProcessLifeTime 3600
MaxProcessCount 16

DefaultMinClassProcessCount 3

DefaultMaxClassProcessCount 16
IPCConnectTimeout 10
IPCCommTimeout 300

I’ve probably misconfigured something, but I cannot pinpoint it, any
suggestions?

Thanks,
Tom

Sounds like it takes more than 60 seconds to process the http get.

In the #{RAILS_ROOT}/vendor/flickr/flickr.rb:81:in `http_get’ you will
need
to increase the timeout

url = URI.parse(urlStr)
http = Net::HTTP.new(url.host, url.port)

http.read_timeout=time_out

etc, etc
