Hi again (this is the second question),
we have the chef-server installed in a simple slicehost account (typical
256mb), with another rails application. We’re serving both through
nginx+passenger, but there’s a problem with that. Passenger does some ninja
stuff to manage resources and keeps starting and stopping instances at his
will. That’s usually OK, but for chef-server you need two instances for the
openid stuff, and I have no idea how to do that. If I restart nginx so that
there’s no application on, chef-server seems to work, since passenger allows
it to have two instances (but even then, only sometimes), but if the other
rails application is on, passenger won’t give more than one instance to
chef-server, and my client requests just don’t work.
Any suggestion on this?

I imagine there must be a passenger tunable that fixes this?

We finally upgraded the slice to a bigger one, and now there can be two
instances of chef on easily. I still don't know how to solve this "properly"
besides having spare resources, since the only thing you can configure in
passenger is the amount of total instances that it can have, nothing
specific per-app.
Thanks anyway =)
