Use the –user and –group Mongrel arguments to specify the user and group your Mongrel app runs as.

Thanks Andreas,…

I didn’t think of that. *grin*

I guess I should’ve put something like:

su -c ‘mongrel_rails ……..’ [preferred_user_here]

Do you realize that these mongrels will run with root privileges?

Additional info for installing:

Install _fails_ unless you have package ruby1.8-dev installed, so:

apt-get install ruby1.8-dev

before installing mongrel.

sudo gem install mongrel
will also ask mongrel&fastthread versions you want. Choose latest ruby versions.
