Which Linux flavor for a Rails server?
Hi folks, I''m a linux noob, and I''m trying to pick a distro for my rails server. I don''t want to start a flame-war about linux distros! I''m interested in the best distribution for these criteria: 1 - Simplicity of getting ruby and rails set-up (gem updates) 2 - Stability (it is a server, after all) 3 - Support resources (community, and as a fall-back, paid

Documentation for rails
I''m trying to convince a co-founder of the startup I''m working on that rails is the new black, or possibly the next sliced bread. Does rails ship with doc, or the API? I can''t even figure out how to download it from api.rubyonrails.com, or if that''s possible. When I look in C:\ruby\lib\ruby\gems\1.8\gems\rails-1.1.2\doc I see nothing of use. I have to admit

Help... Ajax scaffold problems
Hi all, Any help is appreciated. I used the ajax scaffold generator to make 3 scaffoldings. Then I put them together as components in a combined layout and created a master controller, which happens to be named "dataentry''. That works fine. Within each of the components, I was able to set up links that paginate and update the div (for the component) with correctly paginated

tab characters with Rails 1.1 on Windows
We just upgraded to Ruby 1.8.4 and Rails 1.1. It works fine on my Mac OSX, but in Windows, Rails spits out errors like "Invalid char `\002'' in expression". Apparently, Ruby or Rails on Windows has a problem parsing tab characters. This seems to be a common problem: http://softiesonrails.com/articles/2006/04/27/spaces-not-tabs However, the only recommended solutions seems

Rails noob confusion - HTML Form Post to Rails Controller?
I have recently been learning and trying to develop some application parts using Rails. One issue I may have is that one of the potential clients will want to have one of their external web pages POST to the Rails controller. I tried the naive approach - copy the HTML generated for the Rails controller action for doing the same POST (Create of a domain object). I had this working, or so I

Noob - port 3000 in URL''s - get rid of it?
Hi, total Noob here. I have a rails server set up and running. I''m working my way through the "agile" book. I see that all of the examples show URL''s that explicitly call for port 3000. How would one go about creating a ruby app that is engaged with a "normal" URL with no port number in it? That is apparently the default port for webrick to start up on

Re : noob question :)
Wine changes dozens of files to run properly. Last week a user couldnt login anymore his Windows XP after doing that. Btw, as you say world of warcraft doesnt use registry and is well known to work on wine too by copying the whole directory. I suggest you to do that. Its just a few megabytes of disk space versus a possibly unusable windows xp. Kind regards, Sylvain Petreolle (aka Usurp)
