Russian"A SocketError occurred in projects#update:
getaddrinfo: Name or service not known
/usr/local/rvm/rubies/ruby-1.9.3-p448/lib/ruby/1.9.1/net/http.rb:763:in `initialize' "

Any idea what is happening? Thanks! Roman
Solution
Your application is trying to call out to Akismet for spam detection but failing. You’re using ruby-akismet, did you configure it as called for in the documentation?
In config/initializers/akismet.rb:
Akismet.key = '123456789'
Akismet.blog = 'http://example.com'
Akismet.logger = Rails.logger
