How does one properly get find_all to grab the data from the DB table ordered by a specific column? For example: @anglers = Angler.find_all This code gets all the angler records and they are sorted in order of the id field which is of course set as a primary key in the DB (mysql). I''d really like to pull the data from the DB sorted in the order of another field, for example

When I use @persons = Find(:all) (for example) and I get back an array of persons, is there an easy way to tell how many rows the find returned? I have been using Persons.count(:all) but you would think Find knows how many it returned -- is the count/array size stored somewhere in the ret array? -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.

OK I have dents in my head from beating on LoginGenerator, so if anyone who has used this thing can shed a little light I would greatly appreciate it. It is installed and I have set it up on my User class. Folks can login, logout, etc just fine. I have am not using the per method protection model yet, as I am trying to migrate slowly ;) What is broken though are all my methods that save or

I just noticed something interesting (or not) about getting to my RoR app on the 2 browsers. I''ve tested it running Webrick or Mongrel_rails and get the same behavior. The app is at http://www.mydomain.com:myport#/app/list Specifying that complete URL works fine in both browsers. However in IE if you just specify www.mydomain.com:myport#/app/list I get page not found. In FF the URL

I need a VERY SIMPLE solution to get to my rails app. We have a WHM/Cpanel linux server with numerous virtual servers on it. I have an existing website called www.mydomain.com that lives in /home/mydomain/public_html. I have written a rails app called "test" that is in /home/mydomain/test, and it''s rails "root" is therefore /home/mydomain/test/public. I am an

I put some code in a before_save callback in the model file to alter some fields that have dependencies in the DB. I''d like to call a method in the controller file but I continually get undefined method errors. I have specified Controller::methodname as well to no avail. What am I missing? -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.

Hi, I'm new to programming, new to R and even new to mailing lists so please be patient with me. I need to manage many matrices generated by an R program. These matrices have different dimensions and I'd like to group them somehow. The best way would be to have a big matrix (let's call it database) where every element database[x,y] consists of a list of matrices that all have the

I am running mongrel and put some php code in myapp/public, but for some reason they are being treated as html instead of being evaluated by the php interpreter. What do I need to do to get these files treated properly? -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.

I really want to try out file_column but the repository seems to be down for me. I added it to my repository list and script/plugin is unable to see anything in it. I downloaded an archive from the website but it is not clear to me which files need to be installed to which subdirs of my RoR project. Anyone else having this issue with the repository? I am able to see other repositorys no

Hi, I need to compare two matrices with each other. If you can get one of them out of the other one by resorting the rows and/or the columns, then both of them are equal, otherwise they're not. A matrix could look like this: [,1] [,2] [,3] [,4] [,5] [,6] [,7] [,8] [1,] 0 1 1 1 0 1 1 0 [2,] 1 1 0 0 0 1 0 1 [3,] 1 0 1 0 0

I am in Wiki hell thanks to the morons that are spamming the wili. I went to check on the articles for integrating with phpBB as I was going to code it today and it is gone. The back in time function doesn''t work either. Does anyone have a copy of the wiki from this page? HowtosDoSingleSignOnWithPHPbb -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.

I have a method I would like multiple controllers to share. Where does it belong? I have it in a file in lib for the moment. It seems it should be here or in controller/application.rb. Thanks in advance. -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.

I have been playing with the cookbook type of tutorials building a fish tournament scoring piece and am having a bit of a problem with a DB field called "points" in my "catch" table that is not input by the user but is calulated based on a "size" field that is input by the user. I have the following in my catch_controller.db def new @catch = Catch.new @fish =

We have a Centos server with a number of virtual hosts, and my rails app runs under one of those virtual hosts using mongrel_rails. The app lives in /home/mydomain/railsapp where /home/mydomain/railsapp/public is the rails root. It runs under mongrel on port 8008, so to get to it users invoke the url http://www.mydomain.com:8008/ - all is fine to this point. Now I have some users whose

I am migrating from mongrel_rails in development mode to production mode. I have a number of debugging statements based on "puts" in my code that emit info that I see scroll by when mongrel_rails is not daemonized and running in development mode. In daemonized production mode what happens to the output from these statements? I have looked into all the logs, and while I see the

On my registration form I have a checkbox for a waiver. In the model I have the statement: validates_acceptance_of :waiver, :on => :create, :message => "must be accepted" In the view: <%= check_box_tag("waiver") %> <%= error_message_on "user", "waiver", "Waiver "%> For some reason validate is accepting everything when the

I was looking at using the date helper functions for inputing a date for some records, and was highly disappointed to see that they will allow the entry of an invalid date such as Sept 31. It sure would be nice to see the days available change based on the month selected so the user cannot enter an invalid date that must later be reentered. Does anyone know of a plugin or if anyone has

I am an experienced systems programmer (20+ years) trying to get RoR working on a Centos server with WHM, Cpanel, etc. Everything seems OK and I am able to run the hello world apps however I am having major problems when I enable some database access ala the cookbook tutorials. Whether I run mongrel or webrick I am getting seg faults and/or traps in mysql_adapter.rb when I submit a form of

I have a RoR app that currently uses file_column for image upload and display. The app is part of a website that uses CPG for running a photo gallery, and I''d like to know if anyone has interfaced a RoR app to CPG by any chance. I want to dump file_column and let CPG handle my images. -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.

In my rails app I issue a redirect_to "http://www.otherdomain.com/getinfo.php" to invoke a php script that will in turn ultimately send control back to my rails app with some information. However I am noticing that getinfo.php seems to be cached or something. It returns the same stale result time and again unless I manuall tell my browser to refresh the page and enter it manually.
