Ruby interpreter (CUI) 1.9.2p180 [i386-mingw32] has stopped working (I am not using MySQL)

Question

My ruby interpreter is crashing on almost every page request with the following error: Ruby interpreter (CUI) 1.9.2p180 [i386-mingw32] has stopped working

I am not using

Answer 1

Workaround:

Add (or change)

config.log_level = :warn

in config/environments/development.rb

(not my solution - found it in another thread)

Answer 2

It also happens when you want to link to missing files, before you actually create them.

Then the interpreter crashes after 2 requests in my case, but if you remove the missing file links it works just fine.

Answer 3

I had the same problem on windows, ruby interpreter crashing after every couple of pageloads.

my problem was here

<img src="<%= @game.image_url %>" />

and I fixed it with

<% if @game.image_url && @game.image_url != "" %>
 <img src="<%= @game.image_url %>" />
<% end %>

Answer 4

Ok, i found the issue. My css links somehow caused the windows ruby interpreter to crash if the media attribute isn't defined on more than 1 link (crazy!).

Original (crashes):

link rel="stylesheet" href="/stylesheets/jqModal.css" type="text/css"
link rel="stylesheet" href="/stylesheets/main.css" type="text/css"

Modified (doesn't crash):

link rel="stylesheet" href="/stylesheets/jqModal.css" type="text/css" media="screen, projection"
link rel="stylesheet" href="/stylesheets/main.css" type="text/css" media="screen, projection"

Here's some insight into the same (or similar) issue.

Seems to be windows specific (again!) according to the post.

I had this error after precompiling files for heroku. After I deleted them from public/assets folder everything worked fine.
