# ActiveAdmin already includes the necessary jquery in active_admin/base,
# so just add this to javascripts/active_admin.js after //= require active_admin/base

# model_name - you guessed it, the name of the model we are calling sort on.
#              This is the actual variable name, no need to change it.

Installing Nginx+Unicorn on Red Hat OpenShift

This set of scripts and config files will help you set up the awesome combination of Unicorn and Nginx as a server environment for Ruby web applications on Red Hat's OpenShift platform while I finish my cartridge.

Notes

• Before you get started, you should read my post on how to set up Ruby 1.9 environment on OpenShift here: http://goo.gl/ufI5G This will (hopefully) get you started on building a Rails app on OpenShift the unofficial way (for now!).

On Tue Oct 27, 2015, history.state.gov began buckling under load, intermittently issuing 500 errors. Nginx's error log was sprinkled with the following errors:

2015/10/27 21:48:36 [crit] 2475#0: accept4() failed (24: Too many open files)

2015/10/27 21:48:36 [alert] 2475#0: *7163915 socket() failed (24: Too many open files) while connecting to upstream...

An article at http://www.cyberciti.biz/faq/linux-unix-nginx-too-many-open-files/ provided directions that mostly worked. Below are the steps we followed. The steps that diverged from the article's directions are marked with an *.

1. * Instead of using su to run ulimit on the nginx account, use ps aux | grep nginx to locate nginx's process IDs. Then query each process's file handle limits using cat /proc/pid/limits (where pid is the process id retrieved from ps). (Note: sudo may be necessary on your system for the cat command here, depending on your system.)
2. Added fs.file-max = 70000 to /etc/sysctl.conf
