Mongrel throwing error 500

Dear Users,

Often at times when the code encounters an exception, mongrel starts
throwing error 500 (after which most other cluster instances are
affected).

My queries are

  • why does an exception in one thread have to affect others?
  • how can I stop mongrel throwing 500 and start showing me the actual
    error on the browser (this will make things so much more easier)
  • Can anyone direct me to some detailed documents on mongrel
    configuration?

regards

Mohammed. A

I think you need to give us a bit more detail. Like, are you talking
about
actual threads within one process, or different processes, which the
word
“cluster” above hints? And are you using a framework like Rails or
Merb, or
are you building your own registered handlers in Mongrel?
