...all the proper topic names and id numbers, but the current value (@question.topic_id) is not selected. Hmm...does form("question") use the instance variable @question?

Hey, I am trying to upgrade to 1.1.5 and rails no longer finds my controllers the live outside app/controllers. I was on 1.1.2 previously and here is my setup In environment.rb config.load_paths += [File.join(File.expand_path(RAILS_ROOT), "rails_shared/controllers") ] config.load_paths += [File.join(File.expand_path(RAILS_ROOT), "rails_shared/helpers") ]

Hi, I''m trying my hand at rails by working through the tutorial. I''m stuck on getting the rails app, running on webrick, to talk to mysql.

I am using the Polycom IP500 and had it working with my * server but upon moving offices something happened. I have a FTP server set up but I cannot get the phone to recognize it.
