i come to the same conclusion as you. Seems not to be working right now with NetBeans 6.1.

Perhaps somebody else figure out an soloution.

I keep watching the comments

What I’ve gotten working is running mongrel_rails from the command line.

When I run from within NetBeans I don’t get to see the response time on my pages. If you do figure out how to do that, it would be nice if you could post the solution as a comment here for others to see. From what I’ve seen so far of NetBeans’ Rails integration, it looks like it doesn’t currently have the flexibility to override how it runs the server.

thanks a lot Brian.

I just created the http_handlers folder and drop the benchmark_filter.rb into it, without success

But i suppose that my parameters: “-S lib/http_handlers/benchmark_filter.rb” are not at the right place for the NetBeans build-in Mongrel Server.

I googled this wiki entry: http://wiki.netbeans.org/FaqRailsMongrel and write ARGV+=%w(mongrel_rails start -S lib/http_handlers/benchmark_filter.rb) at the end of scripts/server File, but still not working.

Where should i put the benchmark_filter.rb?
(In the Rails App Lib Folder or in the Mongrel Lib Folder?)
Im using NetBeans 6.1.

Sorry, but im really new to the whole rails stuff.

I don’t know of a way to access the Rails ROOT_PATH from inside the BenchmarkFilter class because BenchmarkFilter is a Mongrel filter so it’s one level above Rails. It’s not running inside Rails so it doesn’t have access to the Rails environment.

The RailsHandler class, which is part of Mongrel, is what passes requests on to Rails. Maybe if you take a close look at that class you’ll find an answer to your question.

i tried to access the rails ROOT_PATH from inside the BenchmarkFilter class
but its returning the handler.rb’s path.

how should i get the rails ROOT_PATH.
