similar to: Question about file upload max size

Hi everybody, I''m making a plugin to limit the maximum request size (for file uploads). Instead of canceling the request after it''s completely in (with the method ''process''). I would like to cancel it based on the CONTENT_LENGTH in the method request_begins. Usability thingie ;-) how can i cancel the running request and send a response, instead of waiting?

Since mrblog is now out of sync with trunk, I distilled out of it just the minimum parts for having upload progress display on file uploads. I also took the liberty of inverting the way the iframe was used: now the iframe contains the progress display, rather than being the target of the form post. This makes more sense to me, as you may wish to separate visually the progress display anyway,

Hi, first off thanks Ezra for Merb - it''s certainly interesting and I''m keen to have a play. However, I''m having difficulties in getting started. I''ve followed the docs for setting up mrblog and everything seems to be installed correctly, and merb appears to start fine: $ merb you must install the markaby gem to use .mab templates you must install the

As suggested in "max upload size?" http://www.mail-archive.com/mongrel-users at rubyforge.org/msg02325.html I created a plugin that disconnects (raises an error which terminates the socket) if the specified content-length is higher than 200 MB (by default). I don''t know the behaviour if the specified content length is different than the actual uploaded data or if no

Hello! What is the simplest way to make merb respond to the client sending Accept-Encoding: gzip? Just checking if it exists, otherwise I''ll implement it myself. Regards, Magnus

Hello, I have written a Java applet that uses Merb to process file uploads. This works perfectly on Merb 0.1.0. When I upgraded to 0.3.7, all seems to work well, but I then started to see problems - when people uploaded certain files, the ruby process would spin out and start using lots of CPU, never coming back to life. Other files work just fine. The problem is almost certainly in my Java

Hi, Apologies if this has been asked and answered previously. I just started looking at Merb today as I''d like to use it as an upload server, especially the upload progress feature. I''ve installed the latest Merb gem (0.4.2) and created a new application to test out uploading. I took elements of the mr_blog application and integrated them into it. I realise this

Hi, Sorry if this is a stupid question! I used to have a site running on Merb 0.1.0. When running as a cluster, it would automatically start a drb process to co-ordinate the upload progress monitoring. Since uploading to 0.3.7 (a bit of a jump!), the drb process hasn''t started automatically. I seem to start one if I run merb -s 32323 manually, but when I do check on a file

I tried the upload feature in merb 0.0.7 using http://localhost:4000/files I get the following: Permission denied - D:/Temp/Merb.5172.0 or E:/Dev/Ruby/merb-0.0.7/examples/sample_app/dist/public/files/foobar.jpg - (Errno::EACCES) C:/Ruby/lib/ruby/1.8/fileutils.rb:501:in `rename'' C:/Ruby/lib/ruby/1.8/fileutils.rb:501:in `mv'' C:/Ruby/lib/ruby/1.8/fileutils.rb:1379:in

I have written a mongrel handler that monitors the content length of a given url''s request and redirects them if they are over a certain limit. The idea is to throttle the maximum size of an uploaded file. Using the process method on HttpHandlerPlugin I am able to make this work the only downside is that the whole file is still uploaded. I would much prefer to inspect the http header

Hi! I''m building an app where the user can upload images. this works fine and the uploaded file is copied from the temp directory to an MerbRoot/uploads/id directory. my problem is that the filename is something like Merb.5288.0. How can I rename it? my model is available at pastie.<http://pastie.caboo.se/160143> I''m sure this question is not too sophisticated (-; regards

I was using the sample_app and found out that the progress bar wasn''t changing color. It was updating the percentage but wasn''t updating the width of the status bar style... I found that the mup.js was missing and appended "px" So here it is: my first ever Merb patch! http://pastie.caboo.se/28450 cheers, -rjs- (the_mug) Blog: http://www.rosamour.com --------------

Hi All, Is anyone seeing this? $ merb merb_paste /usr/local/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/merb-0.5.2/lib/merb/config.rb:69:in `parse_args'': uninitialized constant Merb::RELEASE (NameError) from /usr/local/lib/ruby/1.8/optparse.rb:785:in `initialize'' from /usr/local/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/merb-0.5.2/lib/merb/config.rb:67:in `new'' from

I have encountered a problem with a RESTful route, I have the simple route; r.resources :people With a corresponding controller, when I tried to access it using ActiveResource I get a server error, I have tracked this down to a problem where if the header ''Content-Type: application/xml'' is sent it errors out: > curl -H ''Accept: */*''

Hello, I''ve published a Q&A in the Vancouver.rb series with Brock Whitten. Questions include: * How did you get started with Ruby on Rails? What makes Ruby on Rails a great choice for developing web applications/sites? * Can you tell us some challenges you''ve faced developing using Ruby on Rails? * Off the Rails - Can you tell us a little bit about Merb? How

Hello, My name is Olle, and I am new here. I''d like to add some detail to Ez''s explanation in a previous email [1]. These are the steps I took to get Merb running Merb Edge (is that what you call it?). Start in the merb-root not in the dist-root. # Create dist/framework, plus script/merb stub rake merb:freeze cd dist rm -rf framework # Replace dist/framework with trunk

Hi, I have the following setup: class Fred < Application class InvalidKey < Merb::ControllerExceptions::Unauthorized; end def blee raise InvalidKey unless key end end I have added a view exception template in views/exceptions/invalid_key.html.erb but I am not seeing the exception page being rendered ?? The request seems to correctly go to

I''ve submitted a few patches on Trac to help get Merb running under JRuby [0][1][2][3][4]. It''d be cool if any of you committers could find the time to look them over and apply/reject them. They''re mostly tiny, so it shouldn''t be too onerous. With all of these patches applied, there are still 3 spec failures. One is in the spec ''a merb mailer

Hi All, I''ve come across the following problem with merb 0.5.3 (ruby 1.8.6 / Mac OS X Leopard). Basically, when I type ''merb'' or ''merb -i'' from within the app''s root, It starts, compiles the routes and then exits. Any ideas??? This is a brand spanking new merb app: josh at JDS-MacBook:~/Projects/schmerb$ merb Merb started with these
