I''m using Rails Recipes to create a login form but instead of username and password, my setup is firstname, lastname, password. I seemed to be gramatically challenged and not sure how to set up the parameter list. Can anyone offer up a suggestion. The book shows the method starting like: if request.post? user = User.find(:first, :conditions => [''username = ?'' ,

My Rails site has a fair amount of login and ''ownership'' logic. For instance, we have a number of clients (companies), each of which has several accounts. A client owns a number of different types of resources, and shouldn''t see any other clients'' resources, so, for example, our ScenesController contains a lot of references to

Hi, We''re using unicorn as a Rails server on Solaris, and it''s been running great for several months. We''ve recently been having a few problems and I''m at a loss what might cause it. A number of times in the past few days, our unicorn slaves keep timing out & the master keeps restarting them. unicorn.log looks something like : E,

I''m running into a couple of stale object problems with methods that at first glance appear fairly atomic - eg Message.update(params[:id], {:body => params[:value]}) Of course, Rails has to instantiate the object & validate it before it updates the database, so it''s not actually atomic, hence the occasional staleobject error. So I''ve been wondering about

Whenever I tried to start mongrel_rails with the upload progress script, it would die with the following error: /usr/local/lib/ruby/1.8/drb/drb.rb:837:in `getaddrinfo'': getaddrinfo: No address associated with nodename (SocketError) from /usr/local/lib/ruby/1.8/drb/drb.rb:837:in `open_server_inaddr_any'' from /usr/local/lib/ruby/1.8/drb/drb.rb:860:in

Hi Everyone, As many of you out there I''m "protected" by the firewall which prevents me from checking my code for W3C compliance, I am able to check the production code but i would like to test my code before it goes to production. So if anyone was able to have that check done locally, possibly including some sort of tests in to the integration process, I would truly

I''m struggling to keep backgroundrb v2 running for more than 24 hours. It appears to be running fine for a while, then tries to fire off a worker (exactly the same worker it''s been running for the past few hours), and it suddenly dies. I haven''t found any pattern for the cause of this. In backgroundrb_server.log, the final entry is this : 20070206-10:41:45

Hello Minions! It''s *finally* here. Mongrel 1.0 RC1 for everyone to test, even the win32 folks. I managed to get everything to build on windows, including fastthread, and even cleaned up the "releases source":http://mongrel.rubyforge.org/releases/ so that it should install cleaner. Win32 will have to try and report problems, as it seems rubygems is real finicky on win32.

When I go to a missing page in my rails app, I get the 500.html page, and this in my log output: no route found to match "/asdasd" with {:method=>:get} ./script/../config/../vendor/rails/actionpack/lib/action_controller/ routing.rb:1057:in `recognize_path'' ./script/../config/../vendor/rails/actionpack/lib/action_controller/ routing.rb:1047:in `recognize''

I want to store a number of snippets of html representing messages, and display them in response to user events. I''m currently storing them in a javascript array at page-load time, then display individual snippets using Element.update(). The message array can get extra messages added to it following an ajax call. The set up looks something like this: <script

I have a user model that owns messages : class User < ActiveRecord::Base has_many :messages , :dependent => :nullify end I''m using nullify so that when the user is deleted, the messages continue to exist - they''re just marked as being ownerless. However, calling user.messages.clear actually deletes all his messages, which I was a little surprised at. I would

I want to be able to display a number of messages, and guarantee that they''re only displayed once. Something like this : def get_new_messages @messages = Message.find(:all, :limit => 5, :conditions => ''new = 1'') @messages.each do |msg| msg.new = 0 msg.save end end However, there''s a race condition in the above code if two users try to access

I''m receiving a multipart post request from another server. The request parameters are being received as StringIOs, rather than plain strings. For instance : Processing MessagesController#receive (for 83.166.68.31 at 2006-05-24 10:36:53) [POST] Session ID: eedafb24033be0714f8133f02810083f Parameters: {"message"=>#<StringIO:0xb7503358>,

Is there a good reason why redirect_to doesn''t check responds_to, so it can handle redirects in rjs calls? I''ve done something like this in my app controller, seems to work ok... alias_method :redirect_to_orig, :redirect_to; def redirect_to(options = {}, *parameters_for_method_reference) respond_to do |accepts| accepts.html do redirect_to_orig

Is it possible to set up a list of checkboxes so that the form parameters are given in an array (eg {"delete_list" => [3,6,7]}) ? At the moment I''m using <%= check_box_tag "delete_list[#{post.id}]" %> ...which gives parameters looking like {"delete_list" => {"3" => "1", "6" => "1",

I''m running a Rails (r4720) app on OS X 10.4.6. Mongrel 0.3.13.3 works perfectly for me. Mongrel 0.3.13.4, not so much. Redirects don''t work, for one thing. This rails code : redirect_to :action => ''login'' correctly redirects me on 0.3.13.3. Here''s the header I get back : HTTP/1.1 302 Moved Temporarily Content-Length: 93 Connection: close

Why does mongrel_rails insist on loading ~/.irbrc with each request? a) I''m curious why it loads it at all (I assume there''s no way of getting an inline breakpointer??) b) Why re-load it? It causes problems with any constants that are used in .irbrc... (alternatively, how do I avoid re-assigning to a constant?) Jon -------------- next part -------------- A non-text

I''m using postfix in OS X to receive mail and forward it to my rails app. When it tries to feed the email into rails, it fails with the following error: "/Users/jon/Developer/OneMod/script/runner ''MailMan.receive (STDIN.read)''". Command output: /Users/jon/Developer/OneMod/script/../config/ boot.rb:7:in `require'': No such file to load --

I''m trying to re-flow email messages, removing the line breaks that get added by mail programs so that the lines don''t exceed 72 characters. Mail.app and Thunderbird seem to insert a space character before each added line break. Outlook replaces new lines in the email with double \n''s, then uses single \n''s for the ''soft'' line breaks.

My completely empty model (no validation callbacks etc etc) takes an average of 0.05 seconds to create, at least according to Benchmark.realtime{200.times{Message.create(:from => "me@here.com", :message_type => ''email'', :subject => "hello", :body => "goodbye", :sent_at => Time.now)}}/200 That''s a little slower than
