My question: Is there a way for Rails to know if it is running under Apache or under Webrick?
Background: I run my Rails website in two environments 1) Under webrick 2) Under Apache I am "successfully" sending email when I want my registering user to confirm the user's identity. Devise massages ....gems/devise-4.3.0/app/views/devise/mailer/confirmation_instructions.html.erb <p>Welcome <%= @email %>!</p> <p>You can confirm your account email through the link below:</p> <p><%= link_to 'Confirm my account', confirmation_url(@resource, confirmation_token: @token) %></p> So I was very puzzled (and spent a couple of hours investigating code) why all the emails had a confirmation link similar to http://localhost:3000/users/confirmation?confirmation_token=wZ4QQPTH2dHi84ku9z2ms <http://localhost:3000/users/confirmation?confirmation_token=wZ4PPTH2dHi84ku9z2ms> That is, why is Devise referring to localhost:3000 even when I'm running under Apache. The code in ~/.rbenv/versions/2.4.1/lib/ruby/gems/2.4.0/gems/devise-4.3.0/lib/devise/controllers/url_helpers.rb is rather complex ... Well above my head. So I said to myself, "Self, surely someone else has had this problem." Yup. They have. I found the answer in https://groups.google.com/forum/#!topic/plataformatec-devise/0NN5-Zhyb6g. But I still don't know of a robust way to test the environment: Webrick or Apache -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.
