timeout problems with file_column and rails?

[John Thompson]

I'm using file_column with ruby on rails and I'm having a problem with
uploads timing out if they are larger than 50k or so. After about a
minute, webrick gives me these errors:

I don't believe it's a problem with my code because if it's a small
file, I don't have any problem at all. If I watch the packets going
out on the client pc, they go out very intermittently, and the 54k file
I uploaded took 6 seconds. I'm on a t1 connection and the ping I have
to the server is about 30ms.

Also, this worked perfectly fine yesterday, and I'm fairly sure I
haven't changed anything. It's a very short, simple script.

Does anyone have any idea how troubleshoot this?

Hi,

ip addr- - [15/Jun/2006:10:15:35 EDT] "POST /songs/create HTTP/1.1" 404

does the file exist?

songs/create does, yes.. it's an action in the songs controller. It
works if the file uploads successfully. At this point, I believe this
is probably a network problem becuase I can't ftp large files to the
server, either, I've just discovered.
