Rails::Rack::Static no longer seeing page cached files when page cache directory is moved

Reported by Elliot Winkler | April 16th, 2009 @ 07:34 AM | in 3.x

Setup:

class FooController < ActionController::Base
  caches_page :bar

  def bar
  end
end

  1. Start script/server in production mode.
  2. Hit http://localhost:3000/foo/bar. An entry should show in the log for the action. public/foo/bar.html should exist.
  3. Refresh. Nothing should show in the log as Mongrel loads the cached file.

Nothing out of the ordinary so far...

Put this in environment.rb:

config.action_controller.page_cache_directory = RAILS_ROOT + "/public/cache"

  1. rm public/foo/bar.html, restart Mongrel
  2. Fire up http://localhost:3000/foo/bar again. As before, the log should show Rails handled the request.
  3. Refresh. Nothing should show in the log but in fact Rails loads the action again.

I tracked this issue down to Rails::Rack::Static failing to take ActionController::Base.page_cache_directory into account when looking for a cache file. Attached is a patch that fixed the problem for me. I didn't see any place I could write a test for this, but maybe I didn't look far enough.

    I have simpler solution, just

    @file_server = ::Rack::File.new(ActionController::Base.page_cache_directory)
    
    In
    def initialize(app)
      @app = app
      @file_server = ::Rack::File.new(File.join(RAILS_ROOT, "public"))
    end
