Greetings all-- Humble newbie requesting help here. I''ve just installed Ruby 1.8.2, Rake 0.4.15, and RubyGems 0.8.8. When I try to get Rails into place via "gem install rails," I get the error below. What have I done wrong? Can anybody throw me a rope? Attempting local installation of ''rails'' Local gem file not found: rails*.gem Attempting remote

looking at the unit tests of activerecord leads me to think the db is completely responsible for auto-incrementing the id field and rails does no magic here. can someone confirm that this is a true statement? that being the case - what is the preferred way to write database agnostic sql for one''s schema since each of the dbs has slightly different syntax for this functionality... does

Currently at our office, if I want someone else to pick up a call, I have to transfer the call to them. So I'm looking into call parking, which is ALMOST perfect. The missing piece of the puzzle: I'm extension 203. I want any call I park to get parked at extension 2203. I want a call my boss parks to park at 2205, since he's ext. 205. In other words, I want calls parked FROM

I''m having a problem converting a date retrieved from my MySQL database and I''m hoping someone can help. MySQL stores the date/time as this: 2005-03-08 17:00:34.0 and according to my Pickaxe book Ruby stores times as "the number of seconds and microseconds since [...] January 1, 1970". All well and good. Unfortunately, RoR is converting my date to this:

I'm finishing up deploying an Asterisk (Trixbox) box at work. Wow, I thought Asterisk was cool by itself, but Trixbox has made just about everything turnkey. Great stuff! So... we're using Grandstream GXP-2000 handsets to connect to the Trixbox, which sits on our DMZ with a single public IP. I need the phones to work from random places behind NAT, as well as in the office. I'm using

I think my rails app has a slow memory leak that degrades performance over the course of several days. I''d like to get to the bottom of it but in the meantime I''d prefer to just bandage it and force the fcgi library to start a new instance of my app every so often. Is there a clean way to do this? Calling break in the each_cgi loop causes an error. Sending SIGUSR1, which

I''ve used mysql for quite some time now. Other than crashing when the partition gets full, I''ve had no problems with it. But I''ve heard great things about postgres and have seen some people say it''s much superior to mysql. So, with a Rails application, is there any reason why I would want to learn/use another DB besides mysql? Any pragmatic benefits?

I hacked a forking FCGI dispatcher for Rails. I have no idea if this is the correct way to do it, but it seems to work fine. It improves memory usage a bit; after it is started the processes share almost 10 MB (of 12 MB total), but unfortunately it drops to 2 MB after a few requests. ===================================== #!/usr/local/bin/ruby require File.dirname(__FILE__) +

considering that sqlite, mysql, postgresql, etc all handle times differently (well only postgresql really *handles* them) i''m wondering how to best approach time fields in rails. my current thinking is that sqlite is the least common denominator: it stores everything as text and does not checking, mysql has datetime, date, and timestamp but does poor checking (crippled to be precise) to

i''ve got a little rails app i''m messing with the schema is create table timedatevalidates ( id serial, timedatetovalidate timestamp, primary key (id) ); the mvc was initialized using rails scripts/generate scaffold timedatevalidate i''ve got this in a subdir of webroot and have modified .htaccess and config/routes.rb like so .htaccess :

i''ve been bashing my head against the screen for about two hours... for the life of me i could not figure out why connections to mysql were failing when view through browser but NOT from the command line as user apache... i confirmed that all connection parameters were correct and still no go. eventually i disabled selinux and all is well. there was a configuration section that claimed

Hey everyone, I added a very very simple how-to for getting Subversion running on CentOS (locally and across Apache)...basically aimed at a newbie that's never touched svn before. Let me know if anything is out of whack, needs changed, or if something isn't right. I did go through and actually follow it with an install, so it should be good. <http://wiki.centos.org/SubVersion>

Can anybody point me to a vendor that can provide a toll free number that can be used in India to reach the united states? Verizon Business is telling me they can't get one.

We've mostly gotten our Asterisk install working, but there are a couple glitches I haven't been able to fix. I'm looking for someone who knows Asterisk, can do some consulting work, and is in Southern California. Los Angeles or Orange County are ok, but I'd prefer someone in the Inland Empire, with strongest preference given to people here in the High Desert or in the San

The problem is the sound output is inversed. What should be heard on the right is heard on the left side and vice versa. So ... if a guard is on your left and he says something you hear him from you right side... This applies to all sounds not just chatter.. bonfires, horse, etc... Is there any way to fix this? Used wine 1.3.0 and currently using wine 1.3.1. Running Ubuntu 10.04 32bit. Oblivion has been patched to latest official patch and also the unofficial patch has been applied. Only one mod used that affects water. It has no effect on the sound whether i...

line 212 of postgresql_adapter.rb is return Time.now.to_s if value =~ /^\(''now''::text\)::(date|timestamp)/ i don''t think this will work. in postgresql the field ''now'' is pinned to the SAME TIME for the duration of a transaction. eg. if you do begin transaction; insert into t values(42, ''now''); # sleep one minute

Hi all. Ok, I'm sufficiently pissed off now. Hopefully someone can help. Since I have no NT4 servers on the network, I'd like to be domain master, and a wins server. So I've added the following to the global section: local master = yes os level = 33 domain master = yes preferred master = yes wins support = yes And now I receive the following message:

Hi all, Last night, I wrote a web-based syntax highlighter that takes Ruby and produces nice HTML of the code, ready for including on web pages, or in blog posts, or whatever. I don''t know how useful it will be for other people, but feel free to use it. Anyway, the URL is : http://syntax.carldr.com/ Any comments/suggestions would be gratefully received. Enjoy!
