I''ve got a view template that contains this: <%= render_component(:controller => ''reviews'', :action => ''show'', :params => { ''id'' => review.id }) %> In Rails 0.10.0 this worked just fine. After I upgraded to 0.10.1 I get this error: ActiveRecord::RecordNotFound in

You''ve probably been reading the ruby-talk thread I started titled "RAA Status & The Problem with Ruby" that rehashes that age-old conversation we keep having about how to tell the good from the bad when it comes to ruby libs and apps. We now have an opportunity to stop talking about it and actually do something. I proposed a RubyForge add-on to create a user-driven

Does anyone know how to get the radio_button helper to set the html "checked" option? Thanks, Curt

With the big One-Oh on it''s way, I''m thinking we should perhaps start to work on the documentation some more. The RDoc format is perfectly fine, and does its job beautifully, but I think it doesn''t quite reflect the whizbang value that rails has, especially for newcomers. As one who has looked at the api docs almost daily for several months, I feel quite comfortable

Hi Folks, Just a quick message saying that, after much demand, I wrote a quick write-up for the RoR + XUL thing I did yesterday: http://www.zedshaw.com/blog/programming/ruby_xul.html It lays out the few simple things I did, has a bit of rant on an unrelated topic, and other stuff but it''s short still. On a related note, I''d like to thank "xal" on IRC for reminding

Someone working through my Rolling with Ruby on Rails tutorial is having this problem. Does anyone know what could cause it? I pasted the text of his message below. Thanks, Curt -- Original Message -- I am using Instant Rails which comes with Rails 1.0, WEBrick 1.3.1 and Ruby 1.8.2 and I ran the WEBrick server and it starts on http://0.0.0.0:3000 and not http://127.0.0.1:3000. However, when

I''m only just learning to use Rails, but this seems like something very out of my control. I used GEM to download and install Rails, then created a new application and a controller and started the WEBrick server. When I try to access the new controller "Test" using http://localhost:3000/test/ I get a "Not Found" error and a great deal of output from the server

On December 14th, 2004 David Heinemeier Hansson sent this to the mailing list: I''m seeing a lot of new names on the list. Could we perhaps do a round of introductions? That would also be a great first post, if you haven''t had a chance to contribute yet. The basics should include your name, your organization, your country and city, and the project you''re

Here''s the text of a quick note I''ve added to the Inheritance wiki page. I''m actually proposing that it would be a good idea to drop automatic single table inheritance and force people to declare it explicitly. There are two reasons for this: 1. Implicitly doing it unnecessarially limits your use of inheritance where you really need it: in your object-oriented

Part 2 of my Rails article on ONLamp.com just made the slashdot front page! The entry, itself, is here: http://developers.slashdot.org/article.pl?sid=05/03/04/1319242&tid=156 Curt

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

Hello, What installs do you recommend for Windows XP and MAc OSX 10.4? I want to setup Rails as easy as I can. Thanks Frank -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.

Just spent 40+ hours in two days deploying my app on Windows 2000. Not all the time was Apache/MySql related, but a significant portion was. What a nightmare that was. Unfortunately, the customer is dead-set on "standardizing" by using Windows. So, as I sat there between a Linux box and an AIX box working on this thing, I ran into problems, part of which were: CGI was slow (Dell

Hi all, New to the list, Ruby, & RoR. I''ve been going through the Rolling With Rails tutorial, but am getting the following error when the instructions tell you to add the @recipes = Recipe.find_all line to the RecipeController: Template is missing Missing template ./script/../config/..//app/views//recipe/index.rhtml The index.rhtml file is right where it''s supposed to

hi all, how are other people passing and accessing ''get'' parameters from their apps? what is the best way to do it? ie: www.example.com/controller/action/id/extra/extra2/ ?? or www.example.com/controller/action/id/~extra/extra2/ or what ever.... are there built in methods for passing and accessing extra parameters? thanks for your suggestions -felix

About 17:00 localtime I managed to get fastcgi, Rails and IIS all happy together. Upon success I ripped off my clothes and ran through the village yelling "The future is now!". A PDP-11 geezer stuck his head out a window and said "The future isn''t what it used to be and keep yer shirt on". Modifications were required to dispatch.fcgi and request.rb. The following

If I do: script/generate controller Photo I get a controller named photo_controller. OTOH, if I do: script/generate scaffold Photo I get a controller named photos_controller. (Note that the controller name is pluralized). I realize that I''m specifying the controller name explicitly in the first case, but it seems odd to me that the scaffold command generates a pluralized

Hi guys, After a few days of webrick seeming to use up a ton of ram (the longer it was running, the more ram); izayoi on #rubyonrails kindly suggested changing Dependencies.mechanism in development.rb to :require which appears to have fixed the prob - at the expense of having to restart webrick after making changes to .rb files. Is this a known issue, or is there an alternative solution?

Has anyone had any experience with making calls to Win32 COM object in a rails controller. I have no problem making the calls using the WIN32 module, however I do seem to have some memory leaks, when the COM object being called at some point makes use of SafeArrays. The same method calls in VB,Visual C++ don''t produce the same memory leaks. I realize this might seem a little odd, but
