Hi folks, Newbie issues...I''m prototying an Apache/Mongrel configuration setup as follows: * Two Mongrel servers each serving a Rails application. * Apache front-end. * Linux system (CentOS) * The plan is to create two virtual hosts. /ETC/HOSTS LOOKS LIKE THIS: # Do not remove the following line, or various programs # that require network functionality will fail. 127.0.0.1

Hey again :) I have this weird issue on Windows. I''ve installed mongrel_cluster and friends, and I''m trying to get a cluster up and running. Here''s my mongrel_cluster.yml: ------------ --- port: 8000 environment: production address: 127.0.0.1 pid_file: log/mongrel.pid servers: 10 cwd: c:/railstest docroot: public log_file: log/mongrel.log ------------ I''ve

Hi, I have conventional directory structure for a pass taken from project examples. I want to build a tool which makes usage of a shared library which is included in the project. This means that I have library here: # lib/foo/*.cc and after compilation the library is placed here # Debug/lib/libfoo.so My tool is located here: # tool/test_foo # cat tool/Makefile LEVEL = ../ TOOLNAME=test_foo

This could be OT. If so, just let me know and I apologize in advance. I mentioned in an earlier email that I have Mongrel setup as a proxy server behind Apache. Rails applications served by Mongrel do not find the CSS file and hence no styles are displayed. In fact, many of the actions are not found.The reason, I believe, is because the URLs for styles and actions typically follow this pattern:

Hello, all. There is a problem to get an output of warnings() function to sink in a file specified. There are to files 1. File "test" with content: source("test_foo",local=T) 2. and file "test_foo" with content: options(warn = 1) sink("c:/temp/foo.txt",append=F) warning("Foo warning") warnings() sink() 3. If I run R as "c:\Program

I made my own RUnit testing convention, and I want to introduce this to one of my friends. Before that, I'd like to review my codes. The problem that I met when I tried to polish my codes is: How can I get the file path in the file??? I.e., I want to get the path to the file that I'm writing using some magic R functions. But I couldn't find any good magic. Is there any magic? So, I

if im in the views dir for the railtstest controller and render a partial like so: render(:partial=>''container/ thepartial'') then it will only work if that partial is in views/container/thepartial not if its in views/railstest/container/thepartial as I expected. but what i want is to have a dir called container inside of railstest and be able to render a partial

Hey guys, I''m trying to get rSpec (rev 2996) working with Rails 2 (rev 8214). Running the tests from the command line works, no problem. I installed the RSpec.tmbundle (also rev 2996), and would like to see the HTML test results in TextMate. When I run the "Run examples in selected files/directories" command in TextMate, I get the following dump:

I am trying to run some functional (or are they unit?) tests on my application_helper.rb. So far, I''ve not had any success in being able to call the methods defined in application_helper.rb. Here is my app/test/functional/helpers.rb require File.dirname(__FILE__) + ''/../test_helper'' require File.dirname(__FILE__) +

Just released a very simple plugin for including all fixtures in your tests. Once you have a large number of table, manually managing the fixtures for every single test stub can be quite tedious. Use as follows class BlogArticleTest < Test::Unit::TestCase all_fixtures def test_foo ... end end Couldn''t be easier. More info here:

Hi, Anyone know where the "record" method is defined. Its used in generators like in the scaffold generator. An extract from it is below (taken from scaffold_generator.rb): def manifest record do |m| # Check for class naming collisions. m.class_collisions controller_class_path, "#{controller_class_name}Controller",

If a package has importClassesFrom(P, C) in its NAMESPACE, then should it _also_ have importClassesFrom(P, <superclasses of C exported from P>) importClassesFrom(Q, <superclasses of C exported from Q>) ## and so on ... ? I think that WRE could be more clear on this point, and in any case I _think_ that the answer is yes. Notably, I think that this rule would

I''ve been looking to play about with Ruby on Rails for a while just to see what the fuss is about and now that I have, it looks very impressive. Unfortunately I can''t seem to get it to run on my shared web server which is run by the hosting company pair networks (www.pair.com). I found the handy guide on the wiki that seemed tailor made for my problems and followed the

Dear list, is it possible that method dispatch checks for superclasses/virtual classes before checking "ANY"? I'd like to build a generic initialization method for all my Reference Class (say "MyDataFrame") objects by having them inherit from class, say "MyRefClassVirtual" (which would have to be a virtual S4 class; there are no virtual Reference Classes,

Dear List, I'm exploring the use of class inheritance for a package were developing. I want to try to build on existing a class, i first want to extend this a bit using a virtual class and then extend this virtual class in multiple other classes. This would be similar to bar3 in the example below. Since there are nice functions for creating an object of the first superclass i would like

I wanted to do: foo.wrap and wrap would go to a specialized wrap for some types of foo and a general Object#wrap for all the others. So I added wrap to Object class Object def wrap self end end This worked except for objects which are actually AssociationProxy objects pretending to be some other object. The reason is that AssociationProxy removes all but a few methods from itself.

I just spent a few hours tracking down a bug in Rails 1.1, so I thought I''d post the issue and a workaround just in case anyone else hits it. I designed a security enhancement so that controller methods can be protected by preceding them with a role. The standard Ruby method_added() callback is used to detect when controller methods are added, and then I manipulate the

Hi, I installed rails 0.10 with ruby gem, and upgraded my application as described at http://manuals.rubyonrails.com/read/book/15 . Now, when accessing the action index of the controller rss_feed, I get this error in the terminal when I started the server: #<NameError: uninitialized constant Class::Object>

I have been struggling for hours trying to connect Rails to postgresql. I have trawled google results - all to no avail! I have installed the postgres gem but it doesn''t appear to install properly: # gem install postgres Attempting local installation of ''postgres'' Local gem file not found: postgres*.gem Attempting remote installation of ''postgres''

Hi, I have been heck of a time to get mysql and fastcgi to work properly on my Mac OS X box. I keep getting the following error: Can''t connect to local MySQL server through socket ''/opt/local/var/run/mysql5/mysqld.sock'' (13) I have even tried commenting out the "socket" option in my database.yml but it still gives me the same error. I''m ok when I
