Welcome

Hi, you've reached the website of Mark Menard, Freemason, developer, businessman, photographer, motorcyclist and all around nice guy.

The main joy in my life is Sylva, my loving partner and friend. (You will see plenty of pictures of her. Also check out our site.) My professonal career is running a consulting firm concentrating on business automation and custom software. I enjoy software development, motorcycles, photography, dancing, freemasonry and travel.

Here you will find galleries of my latest photos, thoughts on software development, freemasonry, the occassional politics, and other things. Enjoy your time here.

Using GoldSpike to run Ruby on Rails in Standalone Mode

When running Ruby on Rails in a war using the GoldSpike servlets and context-param jruby.standalone is set to true you will need to use the jruby-complete jar file. Rails requires Gems in order to boot strap. I found that using the jruby jar file caused Rails to fail in initializer.rb when it tried to require 'logger' which is included in the ActiveSupport gem.

Also be sure to copy your required gems into WEB-INF/gems.

[EDIT: Better yet use ruby gem install --install-dir WEB-INF/gems. ]
