I''m trying to find all the unique bill_number, status records in Bills table. I can do it with a find_by_sql statement like this: @records = Bill.find_by_sql( "select distinct bill_number, status from bills group by bill_number, status;") How would I rewrite it using ''find :all

I think I am missing something terribly obvious. Is it possible to have an :expects parameter for a webservice that is an array of objects? I want to have a single webservice that expects all my line items (for an order). Is this something that is possible? -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.

Hi, I have a strange problem with testing classes which have a HABTM relation. It seems that while running my tests with rake the fixture for the association table is not loaded - as a result I get a failure on a test which simply checks the number of associated elements - it says it''s 0 although there should be one. The weird thing is that when I run the tests with rcov

Hello, this is a typical "how do you do it in Rails" question :) I would like to incorporate fit testing into a RoR app and I''d like to hear your recommendations on how to do it. In the ideal world I would like all the table test definitions and implementations stored in svn together with the app, ability to run the tests with a rake task + a hook to FitNesse, so that

I''m returning some rows from a tags database that look like this: ID WORDS 1. apple banana pear 2. banana melon 3. apple peach lime What I want to do with that data is use the .split method to divide them into separate values in an array, then use the .uniq method to return a unique list of the words like so: apple, banana, pear, melon, peach, lime So in my controller I

Hi, I''m trying to include a partial in an email template but it throws me this: undefined method `controller_path'' for SupportMailer:Class Extracted source (around line #12): 11: 12: <%= render :partial => ''footer'' %> I guess email views are a little different from normal ones as they don''t seem to have a access to a proper controller (?)

Hello, I''m a novice to ferret, so far only used it via acts_as_ferret. My question is about a recommended pattern for an ''advanced search'', which would be searching by all fields of a model and some fields from related models, with range search, expression search and wildcards. The kind of search in which a user is presented with a huge form that allows them to set

I tried to use a before_save and use simple_format, it returns and undefined method error. Can I even use these methods within a model? I tried to use auto_link and it failed too. What am I doing wrong? Furthermore, would it be recommended I format text before saving it to the database? Advantages or disadvantages? -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.

Hi guys. Total newbie here. I''ve been doing web stuff since 1996 but only began the foray into scripting last year. I haven''t got my skull completely 360 degrees around OOP yet. It''s just me here (in Japan) and there are no Ruby groups in my area (never mind any in English). I''ve got a database table - real simple: question, answer, and id fields - and I

I''m hoping someone can help me out here. My application works fine locally using webrick. One I upload to my shared server space I get an application error saying rails has failed to start. The log file production.log reads as follows: MissingSourceFile (no such file to load -- login_system): /usr/lib/ruby/site_ruby/1.8/rubygems/custom_require.rb:21:in `require__''

Hello, I just installed RoR on my server together with cPanel. On port 3000 there is the Rails welcome page. Could you tell me how I can change the home page directory? Currently, the home page directory is /home/username/public_html, but I''d like to use RoR''s home directory instead. I also have another problem: I put .rthml files and instead of the web server parsing it,

Simple question: I know how to access a data field in a hash by doing hash_name[datafield_name]. But what if the datafield itself is a hash? I tried a couple of variations but nothing seems to be working and tutorials do not go into such details. Is there a simple way or should I create separate instances? -Chris -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.

Hello friends and fellow R users, I have a problem to which I have been unable to find a solution: I am gathering survival data on patients undergoing treatment with a new kind of stent. I want to generate survival data and plot survival curves of these patients based (among other things) on the treating physician. My data set has been tabulated in the following manner: Date (the date the stent

I have two CentOS servers running samba3-3.0.34-37. When I connect to a samba share from my Windows 2003 R2 servers, and then try to copy a file to it, I often get the message "target filesystem does not support long filenames." Sometimes it works and sometimes it doesn't. I've been fighting this problem for 2 years. I've replaced my Windows servers, changed my Windows

I have an online doctor/dentist search. Right now I have all the code in one controller, with separate views and actions for the doctor and dentist. About 80% of the code in both the controller and the view is shared. Doctors and dentists are in separate tables with different (yet very similiar) schema''s. So the sql queries are different, and some of the information displayed in the

I have a simple linear model (fitted with lm()) with 2 independant variables : one categorical and one integer. When I run summary.lm() on this model, I get a standard linear regression summary (in which one categorical variable has to be converted into many indicator variables) which looks like : Estimate Std. Error t value Pr(>|t|) (Intercept) -3595.3 2767.1 -1.299

There are three DCs in my Windows 2003 AD domain, but I have noticed that only one of them is referenced in my krb.conf and krb5.conf. Should there be a reference to one or two of the other domain controllers?

Hello, I have a set of templates creating some files for me. All data on my site is encoded using iso-8859-1. Now I want to save the text in the file using utf-8.

Hey, we like to realize a RoR project with a huge amount of controller code. What is the best way to handle that.
