Hi,

Yesterday, out of nowhere, one of my many working rails apps, could not be started any more with Pow.

The browser was waiting for ever. I've noticed that a ruby process was started, eating all my CPU many hundreds of MB of RAM.

The exact same app can be started with `rails console`, with Passenger Standalone, running `ruby config/environment.rb` was working, a `bundle check` confirmed that all the dependencies were satisfied, …

There is nothing in Pow's logs other than a GET on my app's URL., and nothing in the app's logs.

My other Rails apps are working fine with Pow.

A full system restart didn't change anything.

Any idea?
What other details can I give to help find out?

Thanks.
