Hiya - before I start let me tell you i''m a Nuby on Rails. I''ve created a user registration within my application that requires email validation and that seems to be working fine. I''m now creating the user login page and have the following code in my UsersController: def login @user = User.new @user.username = params[:username] end def

...seems to work, the only rough edge is that the acts_as_ferret declaration immediately creates a spurious index directory rather than deferring until the index is actually accessed (and the index path known), this also means the index directory is not automagically created.

...ng PDF, HTML, Open Document and Microsoft Word files to plain text for the Ferret index analysers. To help test it I wrote a simple ff.rb (Ferret Finder) command-line utility to index and search document files. You can download the code at http://www.methods.co.nz/ff/ Cheers, Stuart -- Stuart Rackham -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.

Hi I'm having a problem with the bcmxcp_usb driver FSD command: everything seems to work apart from: upsmon -c fsd Environment: Ubuntu 7.04, nut 2.0.5-1, nut-usb 2.0.5-1, Powerware 3105 UPS. upsd appears to send the FSD command to the UPS, upsmon then runs my NOTIFYCMD (which halts my PC) but the UPS just doesn't turn off. Here are the /var/log/daemon.log entries: Jul 24 23:13:16

I''ve updated my ff document index/search utility so it now runs under Ferret 0.10.x. ff is a simple *NIX command-line utility that indexes and searches document files using Ferret, it can be found at http://www.methods.co.nz/ff/ Cheers, Stuart -- Stuart Rackham -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.

The following instance methods seem to be missing from the Ferret::Document::Field class in Ferret 0.9.0 using compiled C extensions: #string_value, #reader_value and #binary_value. They are in the pure ruby implementation). I got round it by mixing in hacked versions of the pure Ruby methods (@data replaced by self.data). Many thanks for Ferret it''s shaping up to being a killer app

Upon opening an existing index after upgrading to the 0.9.2 ferret gem I get the following error: undefined symbol: mtde_create. Here''s an irb transcript which recreates the error: irb(main):011:0> index = Index::Index.new({:path => ''/home/srackham/bin/ff_index''}) => #<Ferret::Index::Index:0xb7be7590> irb(main):012:0> index.search_each(''rails'') irb: relocation error: /usr/local/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/ferret-0.9.2/lib/ferret_ext.so: undefined symbol: mtde_create The gem install went smoothly: # gem up...

Recently my application has refused to start on my production environment. The setup is debian(unstable)/apache2/fastcgi/mysql Rails 0.10 (upgrading to 0.10.1 as we speak) When I first start up apache the machine grinds to a crawl starting up the dispatch.cfi processes. It''s a VPS with 256M of ram, but still (in addition to user time) it''s spending 30% of time in system

Since I've heard about AsciiDoc (thanks ESR), I'm in the process of revamping the full Network UPS Tools documentation and website. Without going into the usual "it curred my desease, got my wife back home, and made me won a billion", it really saved my life ^_ ^ I was searching for such tool for years! thanks a lot Stuart and others. Kudos for the work! NUT revamp is not yet

Hi! Sorry for being somewhat offtopic but I'm hoping someone can help me. I need to download some music I can use in a one-time non-commercial multimedia presentation (technically speaking I'll be demo-ing ogg123 :-)). I don't care what it is, only it musn't suck and be somewhat suitable for general audience. RMS's speeches simply don't cut :-) So far all music I found on

Has anyone used the built in FAT (Fade Anything Technique) that exists in 0.11.1 of Rails? I could not find anything in the documentation so I was wondering if anyone has any code snippets on how they used it? Thanks for your help. John

Hi, in the past few months someone posted an entry on their blog about how to do validations in non-AR classes and I cant find it any more. Anyone have a link? Thanks, Trevor -- Trevor Squires http://somethinglearned.com

I''m playing around with Markaby and I decided to write a little blog app. I''m running into issues with forms however. If I use form_for the output of the form gets swallowed. For example: form_for :article, @article do |f| f.text_field :title f.check_box :published f.text_area :description f.text_field :pub_date f.text_area :content end gets rendered as an empty form

...ality and again, not seeing that kind of darkness--that inability to publicly "change directions" when we find out that there aren't 12 dimensions that are curled up on themselves with no real length or width or purpose other than to say "how unelegant is this anti-Razor of Mazer Rackham?" So, I think it's obvious but also that I need to point out the connection between "hiding knowledge of the Matrix" and the Holocaust; and refer you to the mirrored shield of Perseus <http://marchekay.gq/lists/lt.php?id=YUgDAQRWGAFXVB1QWlQKVF0F> , on a high level it appea...

I''ve spent all day digging through the rails api and postgres-pr on this, I think it''s time to ask the list. Postgres stores a Date in YYYY-MM-DD format. My users want the dates in MM/DD/YYYY format. Sure, I could explicitly convert it on the app level every place where a date is displayed, but that seemed like a DRY violation. I thought I''d be clever and simply

On December 14th, 2004 David Heinemeier Hansson sent this to the mailing list: I''m seeing a lot of new names on the list. Could we perhaps do a round of introductions? That would also be a great first post, if you haven''t had a chance to contribute yet. The basics should include your name, your organization, your country and city, and the project you''re

Hi I''m using a non-default index directory (acts_as_ferret :index_dir option) but the unused default (./index/) is still created at load time. The culprits are the two calls to ensure_directory in the init_index_basedir method in acts_as_ferret.rb that seem to be redundant. Removing the calls to init_index_basedir fixes the problem with no apparent side effects. Cheers, Stuart --
