Hello-- There must be a better way to do this. I have a class method in my model that finds averages and does a few calculations using find_by_sql. The problem I¹m encountering is that all computed columns from MySQL come back as type string. E.g., def self.find_averages(domain_id) if @@domain_average return @@domain_average else @@domain_average =

Hi, everyone, Just wondering if someone had come up with a good way to do fuzzy searches if you use MySQL as your database (we tried switching to PostgreSQL, but that ended up adding even more problems). Ferret sounds great, but reading through the discussion it looks like we need to solve the problem of write conflicts. I just wrote a post in ruby-talk about using KirbyBase maybe to solve

Hello Everyone, I have been reading this mailing list for a while and am impressed with the generous help that many here are eager to provide. Perhaps someone will be able to shed some light on a configuration issue I am having. Thank you in advance for any assistance. First, system setup details: #System Setup# * OS: Fedora Core 4 running in a VMWare box on Windows XP * Database: MS SQL

hi: I am on Mac OSX 10.4 using locomotive.

Hi, I'd like to check the existance of a NOT NULL constraint for a given attribute using ActiveRecord. Is this possible or do I have to painstakingly query the information_schema myself? I need this for some reflection in a custom association. Thanks, - Rowan -- Morality is usually taught by the immoral. _______________________________________________ Rails mailing list

I wanted to add a login string column to an existing table => I created a migration : ... def self.up add_column "members", "login" , :string, :null => false end ... remark: it shouldn''t work, as the table is not empty (=> ''login'' would be null in the existing rows.) problem: rake migrate didn''t complain

Hi According to rdoc: value - the cookie''s value or list of values (as an array). So, I can use arrays, briliant. But.... It does not work (at least on webrick) I wrote a controller: def check_cookies_first cookies[:chef] = {:value => ["first", "second"], :expires => Time.local (2020)} render_text ":)" end def

Hi, I am trying to use ruby int an embedded web server. The environment does not have the luxury of CGI or WebBrick. I find limited documentation on how to get this to work. As a test program on windows, I tried the code in the section below. I have the issues. 1. Is public/dispatch.rb the right script to invoke a rails app? If so, what is the right way to invoke dispatch.rb? 2.

Hi everyone, I''m new to Rails and web development. I just bought up the Agile book and I''ve got a question about the :session_expires option. In the book, page 317, it says the :session_expires "option should probably not be used." Does anyone know why? The book doesn''t explain or give any indication as to why. In an application I''m working on

It seems that in the default Production environment, Rails logs posted form data. Isn't this a security risk? Especially since a user creation form puts this in the logfile: Processing Base#index (for 127.0.0.1 at 2005-12-18 21:03:33) [POST] Parameters: {"user"=>{"password_confirmation"=>"mypassword", "username"=>"seanwolfe",

I''d like to propsoe that the RubyOnRails mailing list forks into three lists. PROBLEM: * The list is getting swamped with traffic, making it hard to use and even harder to follow. * Many, many messages get lost, with no reply. * Due to the overwhelming traffic, it''s hard for beginners to get the help that they need, since their messages get lost in the shuffle, and

Is there any way to request WEBrick to shutdown besides hitting CTRL-C at the console? I''m looking for, perhaps, a script/shutdown command, or perhaps a special URL that will request WEBrick to die. It can be a command run in a different shell, or, as I said, a special URL. Anyone? Tom Harris Cisco Systems -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.

...ttp://lists.samba.org/pipermail/samba/ Hello, I'd like to ask - what can ACLs (on XFS+Samba 2.2) do for me? I was unable to find this out.

...wrong? I've checked all mailing lists and documentation and I haven't found anything about ACL implementation/usage BTW: I just realized that when I want to add more permits for any file, I see only groups, not users (e.g. I see wheel, mem.... etc.... no users) - is this OK?

Hello, After an upgrade from 3.3 to 3.5, we ran into this bug when we tried using NTLM for authentication: https://bugzilla.samba.org/show_bug.cgi?id=7481 . To solve this issue, I am now trying to upgrade from the (latest) CentOS 3.5 packages, to the "Enterprise Samba" 3.6 packages from enterprisesamba.org. After upgrading, the SID changed, so I changed it back to the old value.

I don't speak on behalf of any developers, but most times it is very difficult to change the license of an open source project, as the consent of all contributors would be needed which is nearly impossible. There are ways, but I don't think it is very likely. Further information about linking gpl is widely available on the net. Afaik it is always allowed to link to any library as long as
