similar to: Offering downloads only to registered users

I''m looking to do something similar to the "secret URLs" in Rails Recipes, however, with file downloads. I want to avoid providing direct URLs to people if possible. I have files on disk in public/, so it would be good if each user got a "unique" URL to each file that they are permitted to see (dealt with by a user_id/file_id table). Then they are only allowed

I''ve had a right fun few days at work trying to figure out why our Rails app (which isn''t under very heavy load) kept eating memory and bringing our server to our knees. Eventually I traced it to send_file (which was in a way a relief as it wasn''t down to my coding ;) -- every time a user started downloading, the memory consumed by the app would jump, and

Hi, I want to allow the downloading of specific file only to authorized user, lets say an MPEG. where do I start? ;-) Thx, Dor. -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.

Hi, I have a some image files that belongs to some users. Only the owner of an image should be able to see it. How can I do that? I don''t think I can use send_data, because I want the image to be displayed on a "rendered" page. I don''t think I can place the images in the public folder, because if some user can figure out the name of the image then he''ll be

I''m using Camping (though I suspect this applies to RoR just as well, and if you have an RoR specific answer I''d be happy to hear it, I may switch) to do a number of things for an internal application, one of which is transferring large files (~2GB each) between machines over the network. I thought the easy route would just be to make an app that when given the filename, serves

Any dedicated server hosts here offering Intel-VT-based servers? I''m thinking about standing up two Xen hosts in two different geographical locations and it''d be great if I could run either Windows or Linux on an Intel-VT-based processor (rather than using VMware on a standard processor). Might like to run either Debian, Ubuntu or SuSE as the Dom0 OS. CD

My hosting company is still supporting only Rails 1.0. I have installed Rails 1.1.2 to my vendor directory and deployed it in production which should mean that my application should be using the Rails version in my vendor diretory. But It looks like its still using local gem libraries, here is the error from dispatch.fcgi when I try and invoke my app NoMethodError (undefined method

As is often the case when I tackle a new platform/language, I get the big picture very quickly (because frameworks are frameworks are frameworks) but its the nitty-gritty of the language that bogs me down... So I have some similar methods on a few of my model classes that I wanted to push into a helper. Now I reckoned that the Ruby way was to create a module and mix it in with include. However, I

I have a list of items on a page. Each item has a select list. If someone changes the select list I would like to update the appropriate record on the server....nothing else. I suspect I am making this too difficult. I have an action on my controller for updating this value. I just tried the ''remote_function'', ah, function. It invokes the action on the controller but the the
