The Rails ApplicationController (app/controllers/application.rb) serves as an abstract superclass for all other controllers in a Rails application and is a good place to put methods and filters which you want all of your controllers to use. In my case I''m using it to provide methods such as "current_user" and "logged_in?" etc. By default, RSpec

I''ve been having great fun trying to deploy a fresh install of rails on debian, specifically xlsuite to test it out, but my god how many more errors can I take before I give up. RAILS IS NOT NICE After battling with countless different errors from trying Ubuntu, Fedora, Windows and now Debian the list goes on and on and ON... now the latest error `load_missing_constant'':

I try to config XLSUITE in my system. I''m facing some problem i resolved it one by one. now im facing this error => Booting Mongrel (use ''script/server webrick'' to force WEBrick) => Rails 2.2.0 application starting on http://0.0.0.0:3000 => Call with -d to detach => Ctrl-C to shutdown server ** Starting Mongrel listening at 0.0.0.0:3000 Exiting

Hi all ! This is very strange. I am attempting to get my application running on PostgreSQL (from MySQL), and I get this error: ActiveRecord::StatementInvalid: PGError: ERREUR: la colonne «Party» n'existe pas : SELECT * FROM contact_routes WHERE (routable_type = "Party" AND routable_id = 1000013) ORDER BY position DESC LIMIT 1

I''m trying to write specs for a plugin I''m developing named audit_fu, and I''m running into a problem which I can''t get past it. I''ve got the same specs setup in the main rails app, and everything works fine there, it''s just running the plugin specs that I''m having a problem with. My setup is: - edge rails - edge rspec (in

Hi all, We''re attempting to use Ferret with the DRb server at the moment, and it doesn''t work, at all... = Executive Summary The DRb server process keeps on calling the remote index to the DRb server process... Which means DRb is calling itself, and itself, and itself, until Ruby kills the Thread with a SystemStackLevel error. = The excruciating details... # Mongrel is

Folks, I saw David''s tutorial yesterday at RailsConf and started working on RSpec lastnight and am having a *ton* of trouble with the bundle for TextMate. I''ve made *some* progress, but thought I''d throw it to the list * I run ruby, including rb-rubygems using the MacPorts install (per JDD''s Sandboxing Rails) * installed rspec 0.9.4 (also rcov 0.8.0.2 and

I''d like to write a test of a REST service wherein XML is submitted as the request entity. In Test::Unit on Rails, this seems to be possible in an integration test, but not in a functional test. RSpec uses the Rails functional test framework, as far as I can tell, so it suffers the same result; it tries to symbolize the keys of the ''parameters'' hash, except the

I had posted this on the regular Rails list, but upon trying this in script/console, it seems like the behavior only exists when running rspec. I''m getting some weird behavior in one of my models. I have a model defined something like this class User < ActiveRecord::Base attr_accessor :password validates_presence_of :password end If I validate the model without specifying a

I followed the directions on the site: ruby script/plugin install svn://rubyforge.org/var/svn/rspec/tags/CURRENT/rspec ruby script/plugin install svn://rubyforge.org/var/svn/rspec/tags/REL_1_0_8/rspec_on_rails ruby script/generate rspec And apparently everything was ok. But when I do a "rake spec" on the app folder none of the Rails models are visible. Here is the error: (in

Hi all, I had some specs that were using fixture_file_upload that were passing just fine. Then I froze edge rails to get some 2.0 functionality, then a I upgraded to trunk rspec to deal with uninitialized constant ActionView::Helpers::JavaScriptMacrosHelper After a couple other of tribulations, I have now gotten down to just a couple of not passing specs, all using the fixture_file_upload.

Hi everyone. I can''t get the above(subject line) combination to work. If I use a standard sqlite3 file db for the test db, and spec_server all the specs on my models pass. If I use an in-memory db for the test db, script/spec w/o spec_server, they all pass. But if I use in-memory and spec_server I get the following error: 1) ActiveRecord::StatementInvalid in ''User should be

A couple days ago I submitted a patch, that was committed by Ezra, to the MrBlog project for the Rspec on Merb plugin. So far, it only works with ActiveRecord including fixtures. Has any played with it? If so, did you get it to work? I''m going to be submitting a patch for Controller specs soon. It will be very bare bones, given my current lack of understanding of Merb controller

Thanks, first, to everyone who''s asked and answered questions on this list, and to the creators of RSpec - it is all very helpful. I''ve searched the mailing list, and had a couple 2hr googling sessions that didn''t help me find an answer. I''ve run into a problem getting my first non-trivial view spec to run. I get an error when trying to generate a link_to()

Hi, I''ve just started to try and spec my application.html.erb layout as one of the view specs but it totally barfs. I''m guessing that it''s due to the yield statements in the layout. Any clues as to how to proceed? Cheers Daniel -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed... URL:

Hi everyone, I am relatively new to rspec and I am running into a wall in testing my views. I have a RESTful resource Contracts with a nested resource of Line_items. I am trying to figure out how to test the "edit" form of the Line_items. What complicates this is the nested routing and how to account for it, and that there is a partial form (_form.haml) that both the edit.haml and

Hi there, I installed the rspec on rails plugin for a new project today and guess what -- it blows up! All by other rspec on rails projects are working fine. I updated all gems & still no joy. Any ideas how I can troubleshoot this one ? Here''s my setup: - ruby 1.8.4 (2005-12-24) [powerpc-darwin8.7.0] - Rails 1.2.5 Installed with svn: ruby script/plugin install

Hello all, The topic of plugin dependencies has come up before and it doesn''t seem to have been addressed by core or core doesn''t seem to think it''s an issue. I''ve looked at the current edge code and don''t see anything new, so if I''ve missed something *please* let me know. The following article makes mention of a require_plugin
