What are the limitations on using: errors.add_to_base to display errors in views? I have tried for days to add errors from my object.rb and they never get displayed. class Keyword < ActiveRecord::Base validates_presence_of(:name, :message => "Name is required.") validates_uniqueness_of(:name, :message => "This nam...

In my model I am using errors.add_to_base: errors.add_to_base "Error 1" This works fine. If I do this twice: errors.add_to_base "Error 1" errors.add_to_base "Error 2" I receive the message: translation missing: en, activerecord, errors, models, modelname, attributes, base, as part of my error messages....

...I''d like to add some type of message on the state of the model *without* invalidating it. For example: class Order < ActiveRecord::Base after_save :do_something_cool private def do_something_cool # manipulates the order object in some way based on business rules errors.add_to_base("Message about what we did to your order to match said business rules") end end I''d prefer to do this without calling errors.add_to_base, because it isn''t an error. Furthermore, I don''t even think that works because it''s being called -after- the mod...

On a model I have the following simple validator: def validate unless name && name =~ /^\w+$/ errors.add_to_base("Name is missing") end end I would like to display a custom message on my views, without using the helper <%= error_messages_for "table" %> Where the messages from errors.add_to_base are stored and how to access them in the views? -- Posted via http://www.ruby-for...

validates_presence_of :fname results in the error message "Fname can''t be blank". What I want is "First Name can''t be blank". I could do this def validate errors.add_to_base("First Name can''t be blank") if fname.blank? end I find this clunky and I have to put everyrhing in the validate method. Is there an easy to get what I want. I tried this also validates_presence_of :fname , :message => ''new message'' still retains the fname....

in testing my app I just use the validations validates_presence_of :first_name, :last_name, :email validates_presence_of :academy, :message => "You must select an Academy" validates_presence_of :role, :message => "You must select a role" standard error_messages are fine for most of my fields , resulting in : 5 errors prohibited this data from being saved There

I''m creating an AR object in my controller and then attempting to add error messages to it: if (master_storeids.nil?) @item.errors.add_to_base ''No store is selected'' end This works without error but when it comes time for AR to add the record, it apparently initializes the errors because the message that I added does not cause the AR add to fail as you would expect. Even when there is a validation error in AR the...

...User has_many Registration, Event has_many Registration, and Registration belongs_to User and Registration. So far, so good. There''s a registration deadline on a Event though, a few days before the Event occurs. So, I have this: class Registration < AR def before_create errors.add_to_base("Registration deadline has passed") unless event.can_still_register? end end The weird thing is, if the registration deadline has passed, the error gets added to the registration object, and calling save! throws no exception, but the registration object doesn''t get saved. So,...

...first approach to this was to catch exceptions from save/ create and parse the errors, in my case from postgres, to turn them into something friendlier. Something like: def update create end def create begin super rescue ActiveRecord::StatementInvalid => e errors.add_to_base(e.to_s) end end but apparently rails ignores errors at this point. This just results in rails thinking the record is saved when it has not been. So next I tried something more elaborate. This is a bit contrived and I don''t think I would actually use this but I''m just trying...

Hi How do I supress the reporting of a field name in the full error message? I want the error to be associated with the field so that the .fieldWithErrors class is applied to the field but I don''t want it to add the field name to the actual error message. For example: errors.add("occurs_on", "The date can''t be today!") unless occurs_on != Date.today I

...e to Rails 3 --- if you think this problem is solved in Rails 3 then let me know): The {{key}} interpolation syntax in I18n messages is deprecated. Please use %{key} instead. I have isolated the problem to the following line in my model --- when I do not add this error everything is fine: errors.add_to_base("Uploaded file must be present") if !self.uploaded_file_content Also tried this but same result: errors.add(:uploaded_file_content, "Uploaded file must be present") if !self.uploaded_file_content The irony is on this app I have no use for i18n. Would be also just as glad to...

I seem to be missing something trying to use ''validates_inclusion_of'' to validate a foreign key and was hoping some one could piont out my mistake? The problem seems to be that Order.find_all.collect is not returning an array that contains the order_id, if I replace it with a hardcoded array everything works as expected. The model: class OrderItem < ActiveRecord::Base

Hi all, here is the challenge: I have this validation method, that basically prevents an object which billed = true to be updated: def before_update if read_attribute(:billed) errors.add_to_base(''This service has already been billed for'') end !read_attribute(:billed) end The above code does not work in case I do something like: object = Model.find(:first) object.billed = true object.save because in my before_update filter I am reading the billed column, that...

Here''s a snippet of my model: validates_presence_of :from_name, :from_email, :reply_name, :reply_email, :eSubject protected def validate puts "Calling: #{target_list_ids}" errors.add_to_base("You must choose at least one target list for this job") if self.target_list_ids.nil? end It appears that the validates_presence_of are being called just fine, but my validate method is not. I never see the puts message that I inserted to prove that it was being called. Anyone eve...

...s it''s error messages on the resulting page using: error_messages_for(:mymodel) .... Basic stuff. It''s working perfectly. Now, I have something else I want to check on the same page (that isn''t an attribute to the Model)... and am trying to add it using: @mymodel.errors.add_to_base("another error here") However... this doesn''t seem to be working. On the view, the custom error message isn''t being displayed... only the ones from default validation.

Does anyone how to create a validation that: validates_presence_of :a OR :b I.e. :a OR :b must be present. I thought this would probably be possible with some kind of validation callback, e.g.: def check_a_or_b_is_set return (a or b) end Any ideas?
