Hi Duane, thank you very much for writing this app and making it available, I was looking for something just like this for my family. I got it to run on my laptop with Locomotive using rails 1.1.2, but I''m having trouble getting it to run on Dreamhost (which has upgraded to rails 1.1.6). the application doesn''t start and I get the following error when trying to run webrick or the console: ./script/../config/../lib/dispatcher.rb:6:in `delete_at'': no implicit conversion from nil to integer (TypeError) and the production log shows this error: undefined method `downcase'' for nil:NilClass /usr/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/actionpack-1.12.5/lib/action_controller/request.rb:18:in `method'' /usr/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/actionpack-1.12.5/lib/action_controller/base.rb:933:in `log_processing'' /usr/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/actionpack-1.12.5/lib/action_controller/base.rb:407:in `process_without_filters'' /usr/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/actionpack-1.12.5/lib/action_controller/filters.rb:377:in `process_without_session_management_support'' /usr/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/actionpack-1.12.5/lib/action_controller/session_management.rb:117:in `process'' /usr/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/rails-1.1.6/lib/dispatcher.rb:38:in `original_dispatch'' ./public/../config/../lib/dispatcher.rb:43:in `dispatch'' /usr/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/rails-1.1.6/lib/fcgi_handler.rb:150:in `process_request'' /usr/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/rails-1.1.6/lib/fcgi_handler.rb:54:in `process!'' /usr/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/rails-1.1.6/lib/fcgi_handler.rb:53:in `each_cgi'' /usr/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/rails-1.1.6/lib/fcgi_handler.rb:53:in `process!'' /usr/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/rails-1.1.6/lib/fcgi_handler.rb:23:in `process!'' public/dispatch.fcgi:34 could this be a rails upgrade related issue? best Oliver 2006/1/8, Duane Johnson <duane.johnson@gmail.com>:> > == What is Family Connection? => Family Connection is an easy-to-setup online hub for your family that > includes a Family News section with Photos, and an Address Book. > > For more information, visit > http://familyconnect.rubyforge.org/ > > == Downloads => Latest: > svn checkout > svn://rubyforge.org/var/svn/familyconnect/trunk > Version 1.1.2: > svn checkout > svn://rubyforge.org/var/svn/familyconnect/tags/1.1.2 > Tar/gzipped: > http://rubyforge.org/frs/?group_id=1220 > > == Main Changes / New Features in 1.1.2 => - Added lightbox support for viewing images.

Hey Oliver - I suggest you delete (or move) ./lib/dispatcher.rb. I too have had the same problem, and have removed it temporarily without calamity. It will not adversely effect your usage - but should be very helpful as per Duane''s posting: http://inquirylabs.com/blog2005/?p=38 cheers, J On 13-Aug-06, at 3:12 PM, Oliver Barnes wrote:> Hi Duane, > > thank you very much for writing this app and making it available, I > was looking for something just like this for my family. > > I got it to run on my laptop with Locomotive using rails 1.1.2, but > I''m having trouble getting it to run on Dreamhost (which has upgraded > to rails 1.1.6). the application doesn''t start and I get the > following error when trying to run webrick or the console: > > ./script/../config/../lib/dispatcher.rb:6:in `delete_at'': no implicit > conversion from nil to integer (TypeError) > > and the production log shows this error: > > undefined method `downcase'' for nil:NilClass > /usr/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/actionpack-1.12.5/lib/action_controller/ > request.rb:18:in > `method'' > /usr/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/actionpack-1.12.5/lib/action_controller/ > base.rb:933:in > `log_processing'' > /usr/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/actionpack-1.12.5/lib/action_controller/ > base.rb:407:in > `process_without_filters'' > /usr/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/actionpack-1.12.5/lib/action_controller/ > filters.rb:377:in > `process_without_session_management_support'' > /usr/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/actionpack-1.12.5/lib/action_controller/ > session_management.rb:117:in > `process'' > /usr/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/rails-1.1.6/lib/dispatcher.rb:38:in > `original_dispatch'' > ./public/../config/../lib/dispatcher.rb:43:in `dispatch'' > /usr/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/rails-1.1.6/lib/fcgi_handler.rb:150:in > `process_request'' > /usr/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/rails-1.1.6/lib/fcgi_handler.rb:54:in > `process!'' > /usr/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/rails-1.1.6/lib/fcgi_handler.rb:53:in > `each_cgi'' > /usr/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/rails-1.1.6/lib/fcgi_handler.rb:53:in > `process!'' > /usr/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/rails-1.1.6/lib/fcgi_handler.rb:23:in > `process!'' > public/dispatch.fcgi:34 > > could this be a rails upgrade related issue? > > best > Oliver > > 2006/1/8, Duane Johnson <duane.johnson@gmail.com>: >> >> == What is Family Connection? =>> Family Connection is an easy-to-setup online hub for your family that >> includes a Family News section with Photos, and an Address Book. >> >> For more information, visit >> http://familyconnect.rubyforge.org/ >> >> == Downloads =>> Latest: >> svn checkout >> svn://rubyforge.org/var/svn/familyconnect/trunk >> Version 1.1.2: >> svn checkout >> svn://rubyforge.org/var/svn/familyconnect/tags/1.1.2 >> Tar/gzipped: >> http://rubyforge.org/frs/?group_id=1220 >> >> == Main Changes / New Features in 1.1.2 =>> - Added lightbox support for viewing images.
