In my sesions table I'm storing country and city name using the request method, now, in ubuntu server it works well but in redhat I am getting this error
NoMethodError (undefined method `city' for nil:NilClass)
I have tried this issue solution and I restarted my server but it doesn't work for me.
In both servers I am using Passenger + Apache
I have found the issue, it was that the search IP was taking too much time, so I created an initializer and changed the default timeout
config/initializer/geocoder.rb
Geocoder.configure(
:timeout => 20
)
I open the rails c and search my IP
$ location = Geocoder.search("myIpAddres")
Geocoding API not responding fast enough (use Geocoder.configure(:timeout => ...) to set limit).
=> []
Now it works
$ location = Geocoder.search("myIpAddres")
=> [#<Geocoder::Result::Freegeoip:0xa7130b8 @data={"ip"=>"myIpAddres", "country_code"=>"CO", "country_name"=>"Colombia", "region_code"=>"02", "region_name"=>"Antioquia", "city"=>"Medellín", "zipcode"=>"", "latitude"=>6.2518, "longitude"=>-75.5636, "metro_code"=>"", "areacode"=>""}, @cache_hit=nil>]
