I''m a java/php programmer trying out Ruby/Rails on my Dreamhost account. I followed the wiki steps to the letter (2x now) and am still getting a 404 when I hit my dispatch.fcgi. http://mydomain.com/public/dispatch.fgci Can someone give me suggestions on how to debug this problem? Here is my dispatch.fcgi file: #!/usr/bin/env ruby # # You may specify the path to the FastCGI crash log

Maybe I misunderstand the parameterization of find(), I am getting this syntax error for <% @choices = Choic e.find(:all, :conditions => "question_id" = question.id, :order => "order") %> ---- ERROR LOG ---- ActionView::TemplateError (compile error ../config/../app/views/admin/test/show.rhtml:37: syntax error _erbout.concat " "; @choices =

For example I have table Questions. With fields id, text, and test_id. test_id is not being displayed in my view. I am hoping this means Rails has picked up that it is an id for another model. If so, then how do I utilize that? If not, then do I need to avoid ''id'' in any field names other than the main id field? Thanks! -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.

New to Ruby on Rails. I''ve been playing around with an application I set up at rails.foo.com. Basically this means that all my pages tied to the application live on that subdomain. Is there any reason for not just installing onto your parent domain foo.com and putting your static pages in the public dir that ruby on rails creates? The answer seems like a simple yes, however all the

I am unable to connect to my databases. Here is the error I am getting: MysqlError (Can''t connect to local MySQL server through socket ''/var/run/mysqld/mysqld.sock'' (2)): Here is my database.yml: # MySQL (default setup).

Hi, I wanna use Rails on a SuSE server with apache. Everything should be installed correctly, but when running the application I get this in my apache log: FastCGI: comm with server "/srv/www/htdocs/web4/html/rails/public/dispatch.fcgi" aborted: idle timeout (60 sec) FastCGI: incomplete headers (0 bytes) received from server

Hi folks, My page displays links for ''categories'' using the link_to_remote() function. Clicking on one of these links goes to the controller and returns any child categories. I''m finding that the page works ok but after a number of clicks (average 5 or so), it crashes with an error: ============================================== Processing Base#index (for

Ok, this has got me going a bit crazy. I have an HTML fragment being returned for the result to an AJAX query. It works fine in Safari or from curl (and even in IE/Mac), but utterly fails to load in Firefox, even if I point directly to the URL, skipping all that AJAX stuff in between. (The server logs show a 200 response, regardless of which browser is being used.) I''ve verified

I asked this question earlier and did recieve an answer but I am not sure Ifully understood the answer as I am getting all sorts of errors when trying to implement. Basically I want to add a layer to the path for my files. I have the following set up in my model class: file_column :image, :store_dir => :dynamic_dir def dynamic_dir

Hi All, I have a problem with the stemming(?) in rails. I have a table cookie and a Cookie model which I have generated a scaffold for. The problem is that rails starts looking for a file that it calls "cooky.rb", this must be some kind of misunderstanding between me and rails, but how do I correct it? Other scaffolds work just fine. /Hugo NameError in Cookie#index uninitialized

Hello, I''m a newbie to rails and I am trying to do the Demo in the November Issue of Linux Journal. Things go fine go fine until I try to connect to my Postgres database (ver 8.1).

I am a newbie and I am running into a problem which I cant understand. I have a table called ''privileges'' which has the following fields CREATE TABLE `sdqualplanner`.`privileges` ( `id` int(10) unsigned NOT NULL auto_increment, `name` varchar(20) NOT NULL default '''', `description` varchar(100) NOT NULL default '''', `section_id`

Hi All, Yesterday wrote about my troubles with naming a table and model cookies and cookie respectively. I know that everybody hates the newbie screaming bug as soon as he encounters behaviour he doesn''t understand. But I''ve reproduced the error in the simplest application possible, and dare therefore say that this quite possible could be a bug in Rails. Database: CREATE TABLE

Hi folks, I''m new to this... so hopefully someone can help me. I have a few objects... Property and Address and Landlord... where a Property has an address and a landlord has an address also.
