Hi, I''m trying to get the UserEngine running. I have installed the LoginEngine, added the essential lines to environment.rb / application.rb and application_helper.rb. Worked fine. Then I did the same with the UserEngine and when trying to set up the db: rake engine_migrate ENGINE=user I get: Migrating engine ''user_engine'' rake aborted! stack level too deep But...

First let me say that Rails caching is very very cool. The traffic (and responsiveness) I''ve saved by added 10 lines of ruby code would be enourmous, if I actually had traffic... ;) Sweepers as observers are great, btw. Since every page of my side is dynamic, once I did some DB optimization I''m caching the content of the index page which was taking the bulk of the time to load

looking at the unit tests of activerecord leads me to think the db is completely responsible for auto-incrementing the id field and rails does no magic here. can someone confirm that this is a true statement? that being the case - what is the preferred way to write database agnostic sql for one''s schema since each of the dbs has slightly different syntax for this functionality... does

I have gotten acts_as_taggable to work for a test application as documented on taggable.rubyforge.org I am following Chad''s excellent examples in ROR Recipes Beta book. I have a few questions and hope that Chad or some other expert can help clarify them. 1. Why is the book suggesting to use taggings table instead of tags_contacts, as mentioned on taggable.rubyforge.org?

It appears that you cannot use migrations (out of the box) with mysql 4.0.16, because when creating a table, the statement says "ENGINE=InnoDb", instead of "TYPE=InnoDB". Looking at the source code for the adapter, this appears to be hard coded. Is there any supported way to make this work with older versions of MySQL? David

Rails 1.1 was a big upgrade with a lot of new features and we''ve been working hard since its release to polish off the kinks revealed after it was deployed to the masses. Rails 1.1.1 contains fixes for things like Prototype memory leaks in IE 6, Oracle adapter runnings, and a number of compatibility tweaks to make most older applications work. This release still doesn''t work

Hello- I''m new to the ruby-based schemas and migrations. As I''m looking over examples and such online, I see that many of them don''t make use of schema-enforced attributes. For example, instead of: t.column "post_id", :integer, :default => 0, :null => false They do: t.column "post_id", :integer So I''m wondering -- is this

In java/c++ the method signature provide a good details on which parameters the method accept, but in rails the ability to send hash as parameters make it impossible to know which parameters can be send. This ability make the rails API doc a must to be full of details and not supply partial examples of usage. When for example I see *link_to_remote*(name, options = {}, html_options = {}) I would

Hi, I am from a Java background and pretty new to Ruby and Rails. What I am wondering is how I would shared state accross requests and users without involving IO, i.e. use memory. My current understanding is that for each request a new process ist spawn and therefore it gets its own memory. So no sharing can take place between requests? Do I understand this right? For those who know

Does anyone know how to view the new source in IE after an AJAX update? When I "view -> source" I get the original page source, not the page source as updated.

Hi, I''m developing an application where I''ll have to store a lot of images coming from the users. And I''m still not sure if I should store them in MySQl as blob or just store them on filesystem. If I store them on filesystem, how to scale when I''ll have to have multiple servers ? Thanks, Pratik -- rm -rf / 2>/dev/null - http://null.in

Well, my entry for the 24-hour Rails Day competition is here: http://yubnub.org . It''s a web app called YubNub that implements the grandiose idea of a "command line for the Web OS". Type "gim porsche 911" to do a Google Image search for Porsche 911 cars. Type "random 1000" for a random number between 1 and 1000. Type "tts David Heinemeier Hansson is

OK, I have some basic functionality to support bind variables, it appears to work with the ''old'' %s style too. I''ve altered sanitize_conditions in activerecord/lib/active_record/base.rb to check whether bind variables are in the statement (/\?/). If they are, replace all the ?s to escaped values from the arguments array. else santize and expand. There are a few

find_by_sql BREAKS THE OOP BEAUTY and perhaps we can solve that. NAMING CONVENTIONS can perhaps make find_by_sql much more clever. lets imagine that relation: publishers <- books <-> authors_books <-> authors -> universities (can''t find something else than university for that last association :) ) imagine we want to fetch every book and every associated

All, I am looking to write an ecommerce application and debating using rails or struts. Any advice as to which path to follow.

Hello, I submitted a patch <http://dev.rubyonrails.org/ticket/3287> ( http://dev.rubyonrails.org/ticket/3287) a couple of days ago. The patch adds some methods into and changes the existing methods in the CaptureHelper module. It should not, as I can see, affect any existing Rails implementations. I added the relevant unit tests and all but one of the tests pass. The test that fails failed

The cat is out of the bag, so here''s the full disclosure edition of the current security vulnerability. With Rails 1.1.0 through 1.1.5 (minus the short-lived 1.1.3), you can trigger the evaluation of Ruby code through the URL because of a bug in the routing code of Rails. This means that you can essentially take down a Rails process by starting something like /script/profiler, as the code

I''m working on a RoR project and a requirement has popped up that would required certain actions to happen at certain time intervals (as opposed to having a user initiate the action). Is there anything similar to Java''s Quartz library, *nix cron, or anything of the like for Rails? I''m certainly willing to help with/test Ruby code if someone on the list is already

I have a module that sends email to the members that have subscribed to my site. When it runs through and sends them all emails, it crashes with certain emails with: 550 <email-x+rxnKfQbAxWk0Htik3J/w@public.gmane.org>: Recipient address rejected: User unknown in virtual alias table This is on the other end right? And even so, is there a way to suppress it?
