Is there a place I can get a list of "enterprise" Rails applications? Apparently, even though I''ve looked at the wiki and cited the examples there, there are some at my organization who still can''t find proof that Rails is usable in an enterprise setting.

Hi all. I have two Rails applications. Each is on its own VPS hosted by Pipespring (excellent service btw). My app runs lightning quick - AFTER the first load. If I visit my site after a period of inactivity (i.e. no visitors to my site), it takes up to 10 seconds to load that first time. After that I can hop around with no problems. Has anyone run into this before? Ideas? - Rabbit

Friends- I am almost finished with a custom live cd called Rubuntu ;-) This is an ubuntu live cd variant that comes preloaded with ruby and rails developers in mind. I already have it working with all the basics but I was wondering what extras people would like to see on this distro. What editors with what configurations? What other tools do people really like for rails development on a

I have found that if I initialize a flag in my controller (under def Initialize), it appears everytime I call a controller action, the flag is set to the initialize value (even though I''m not calling the initialized action). Am I observing this clearly? I don''t think I should initialize a flag in the index file. So where? Specifically, I want to know if this action is a

Greetings, I''ve got a rails app which is basically an admin interface to a xml dataset. Currently I''ve got rails rigged to call a function to spit the entire dataset to file with every change. This would actually be ok, its fairly infrequently updated, but when the dataset grows large the user sits there waiting for it to dump with no feedback as to whats going on. Oh yes,

Here''s a simplistic model class. class Person < ActiveRecord::Base has_and_belongs_to_many :relatives, :class_name => ''Person'', :join_table => ''relatives'', :foreign_key => ''from_id'', :association_foreign_key => ''to_id'' has_and_belongs_to_many :brothers, :class_name =>

Could someone explain this http://blog.leetsoft.com/articles/2005/10/31/scoped-databases in a way that can be understood with an example if possible.

I have a method that I want to accept args like the "find" method does and I need to pass those args along to a find call. # in controller action: @projects = Project.find_allowed(session[:user], :order => "name") # start of the model method: def self.find_allowed(owner, *args) projects = self.find_all(args) ... No matter how I try to pass those args along I get
