UK Rates for RoR Contract work?
Hi all, I''ve been offered a short-term contract here in the North of England - around 3 months work, but with RoR I think it will take considerably less time - and am just curious what market rates were right now. I''ve been offered a little under ?1k/week which seems ''right'' for a PHP coder doing this kind of work, but should I be hitting for more, or is

Not wishing to instigate a DB war, but...
Can I get some opinions on which free DB to use with rails for a virtual server that will eventually be doing lots of heavy database lifting? Not a lot of heavy duty querying per se. Think multiple simultaneous forums and blog sites and the like. I know each of the different DB possibilities such as MySQL and PostgreSQL has plus points and minus points. I''m particularly interested

Postgresql vs MySQL
Is there any reason to avoid using postgresql for small web apps? That is, is it''s overhead so large that the lighter MySQL will work substantially better for small apps on small machines? Or are they very similar in performance and configuration? I''ve used MySQL but postgresql has its appeals and I''m wondering if I need to keep MySQL around at all. On the other

Running Rails tasks by schedule, instead of an HTTP request.
Hi there I''m considering Rails for a new web-application planned to be built from scratch. The application has an extensive web front, and in fact most of the application is interfaced through that front and engaged through clients'' HTTP requests (i.e. the conventional way web-applications and "dynamic web-sites" work). However, some essential parts are supposed to

innodb vs myisam
Hi, I have been using myisam tables in mysql with rails because my client will soon want fulltext searchable content, however when I migrated my development db from schema.rb all of the tables generated were innodb. I understand that I can override this, but also like the transactions and foreign keys of innodb. So 2 questions really: 1. are transactions in activerecord dependent on innodb or do

Shared Hosting Rails Sites ?
I can''t decide between a2hosting.com, successfulhosting.com, site5.com (which offers 11gb of disk space for $8.77/month -- I''ll never use it), planetargon.com (which offers 1 gb for $11/month), or railsplayground.com (which offers a gigabyte practically for free). Any experiences you''d like to share? Only a2 and planetargon list their gems on their web sites. All of

large file storing in postgres sucks?
Hi, I''m not sure if this is a postgres issue or not, but I''m using Postgres 8.1. I have (in my functional tests) the following code: upload = fixture_file_upload(''/files/podcast.mp3'', ''audio/mpeg'') post :create, :product => valid_product, :media => { :image => upload } And then in the controller: blob = Blob.create :data

Granting SSH access to a Ruby on Rails user
I installed Rails and Rubygems on a web server for a customer who wants to install a Ruby on Rails application that he developped. He needs SSH access to interact with Ruby, so I''ll have to grant him access, but I want him to only play around in his /home directory, as this server also hosts other customers. How could I do that? Thanks, -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.

PostgreSQL Schema and Rails
Hey all, I am curious about how Rails interacts with SCHEMAs in PostgreSQL. From the generate command, is it possible to setup a scaffold for a table not in the public. schema in PostgreSQL? As a test, I tried, ./script/generate scaffold Manage.Form Manage.Form No dice. Any suggestions? -Robby -- /*************************************** * Robby Russell | Owner.Developer.Geek * PLANET ARGON

Rails + postgres case insensitive searches.
Hello all I am wondering how rails handles case sensitivity in databases. If I do a Person.find_all_by_name("tim") in mysql I would expect to get tim, TIm, and Tim. Do I only get tim in postgres? How do other people deal with this? Do you resort to find_by_sql for all your postgres queries to get case insensitive results?

FTP hangs Rails!
Hi! I''m running a Rails app on Apache/FCGI, with a single handler process on the server. At one point my application needs to FTP a bunch of files to a remote server. When it starts doing this, the server apparently freezes and doesn''t allow anyone else to do anything. Plus, after about twenty seconds, my nice status page vanishes from the browser, even though the

is shared hosting evil?
I moved a rails application to textdrive using their low-cost shared plan. Once on textdrive my app would display ''proxy errors'' periodically. Hitting reload seemed to be all that was needed to get past the proxy error. After discussions with their support people I decided the proxy errors were being caused by apache server restarts -- because there were many of us sharing one

TDD for Rails book?
It seems like half the people on this list are writing a book on Ruby or Rails. For all the hints I''ve seen strewn across the list I have yet to see one that will focus on test-driven development for either Ruby or for Rails.

Child record becomes orphan
Hi all, I''ve got these company (has) contacts relational tables. I want to make sure a company can''t be deleted when it still has contacts. (because I can now, which results in nil like errors when listing the contacts ... obviously) Are there any helpers to do so, is Rails aware of this? Or do I need to put in a condition before destroying the company record in question
