...when it''s decoded by rails, it returns "Pur?ed" and not "Pur?ed". Is there an easy way to fix my controller to accept these characters properly? Or is there perhaps a plugin someone wrote that is less extreme then unicode_hacks?

...:as => :reviewable, :with_primary_key => :other_company_id end It would then use the other_company_id to lookup and create reviews. Unfortunately, Rails has no such option. There has to be someone else out there that has run into this limitation. Thanks in advance for the help.

Why do I need a larger limit? I''ve written a rails application that uses a bookmarklet to send large amounts of data from site to site. The only way to do this is (and keep it cross browser

I''ve got my first server deployment with ZFS. Consolidating a pair of other file servers that used to have a dozen or so NFS exports in /etc/dfs/dfstab similar to; /export/solaris/images /export/tools /export/ws ..... and so on.... For the new server, I have one large zfs pool; -bash-3.00# df -hl bigpool 16T 1.5T 15T 10% /export that I am starting to

Has anyone here had any luck using a CF to SATA adapter? I''ve just tried an Addonics ADSACFW CF to SATA adaptor with an 8GB card that I wanted to use for a boot pool and even though the BIOS reports the disk, Solaris B95 (or the installer) doesn''t see it. I might give the IDE version a go (I really wanted hoT-plug), otherwise I''ll be able to store a couple of thousand

Hey friends, I need a little assistance getting one of my applications running on OSX. I am able to install everything, and get my application running, but when I try to store an object in the session in one of my apps, the session object doesn''t get stored.

Hello, I''ve looked around Google and the zfs-discuss archives but have not been able to find a good answer to this question (and the related questions that follow it): How well does ZFS handle unexpected power failures? (e.g. environmental power failures, power supply dying, etc.) Does it consistently gracefully recover? Should having a UPS be considered a (strong) recommendation or

Hey Guys, This last week on the Rails Envy Podcast we received an "interesting" voicemail. Jason encouraged me to make a remix, and I think you guys will appreciate what resulted.

Please help, I have followed the rails wiki to convert my rails application to use UTF-8: http://wiki.rubyonrails.com/rails/pages/HowToUseUnicodeStrings I am able to succesfully cut and paste Unicode characters from other page, successfully store and display unicode characters.

I''m putting together a NexentaOS (b65)-based server that has 4 500 GB drives on it. Currently it has two, set up as a ZFS mirror. I''m able to boot Nexenta from it, and it seems to work ok. But, as I''ve learned, the mirror is not properly redundant, and so I can''t just have a drive fail (when I pull one, the OS ends up hanging, and even if I replace it, I have to

I''m a fan of ZFS since I''ve read about it last year. Now I''m on the way to build a home fileserver and I''m thinking to go with Opensolaris and eventually ZFS!! Apart from the other components, the main problem is to choose the motherboard. The offer is incredibly high and I''m lost. Minimum requisites should be: - working well with Open Solaris ;-) -
