similar to: Login Engine, user object "marshal data too short"?

I''m seeing a "marshal data too short" error with an ActiveRecord store for my session data. Other posts say that this happens when the size of the session data exceeds the size of the "data" column in the sessions table. But my "data" column is a TEXT field so it seems unlikely that I could have blown it out. Has anyone else seen "marshal data too

I am using Ruby 1.8.2 on WinXP and am receiving a "Marshal Data Too Short" error. I havent been able to repeat the error as it seems to happen randomly in my rails program. However, the version of Ruby I''m using already has the file.binmode lines outlined in: http://wiki.rubyonrails.com/rails/pages/MarshalDataTooShort. If possible I''d like to avoid switching to active

I''m occasionally getting an odd Rails error that says "marshal data too short". Our entire web app seems to be working fine -- we can post forms, save models, redirect, login, etc, without any problems. Then out of nowhere a request will result in the 500 error "marshal data too short". Subsequent requests to *any* page then result in the same error -- even pages

Hi I''ve got the error in the log file "marshal data too short" after I try to store some data into session. After doing some research on the internet, it looks like the problem was caused by pstore.rb. It is there way to solve this problem? Thank you -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.

Is it possible to use Marshal with wxruby classes to serialize an application''s state? I tried a minimal example of simply serializing a minimal frame object, and I get the error "no marshal_dump is defined for class MinimalFrame". I don''t fully understand this because I also tried another minimal example of dumping a class which did not defined a marshal_dump, and it

After sending this I realized that this was a Ruby not Rails issue - but the answer may be interesting for those who choose Marshal over Serialize. So, to close this off I don''t know why marshal.dump wasn''t ''dumping'' all attributes, but adding custom marshaling to PDate did the trick. ala, + def marshal_dump + dumped_obj = [date_precision, ajd,

Greetings, I first want to say that this problem is happening with the Runt gem. This may is likely an implementation issue between Marshal and Runt. While I''ve simultaneously filed this problem with Matt Lipper, I''m also hoping someone here can can guide me a little - either in implementation (usage of Marshal), or to aid me to fix Runt to support Marshal.

I''m trying to marshal some information I have in Javascript, and send it over an AJAX request to the server, specifically to be stored in a model on the server side. I have some Javascript routines I wrote that gather information about the user selection. I see that the link_to_remote has a :before option in which I can write Javascript to collect what I need, but right now I''m

Hi all, I realized the current implmentation has a problem - you can only get the last value set? I realized, after looking at the old C code, that it actually stores values in a hash and marshals the hash, not the values themselves. That seemed clunky to me, though. I thought it would be more interesting if we just marshalled the entire mmap object and passed that back and forth.

I didn''t find exactly an answer on this one, so I''d like to get a clarification from folks who live & breathe HABTM. class foo has_and_belongs_to_many :bars end class bar has_and_belongs_to_many :foos end (and yes, I have a bars_foos table in my db) def test_habtm bar = Bar.new foo = Foo.new foo.bars<<bar assert !foo.bars.empty? assert

I''ve got Login Engine installed as a plugin and it''s working. Now I need to do some customization. First, the home page. This seems pretty simple. * Generate a new controller MyLogin * Have it inherit from LoginController (require ''login_engine'') * Override home Is this right? But what about customizing the view(s)? Should I be making new views for

Backstory: I''m trying to use DRb for some in-house utility code. DRb itself seems to work fine, but I found that when I misspelled a method name, instead of reporting back a NoMethodError, the IronRuby process crashed immediately to the console. This is using a relatively recent build of IronRuby from Github Steps to repro: e = RuntimeError.new ''xyz'' dumped =

I''m using Rails 1.1.x and it looks like the check_box form helper expects me to provide and object and method so it can determine if the checkbox should be checked or not. I''m having a couple of issues with this. note: I''m using UserEngine and adding a HABTM so that: class User < ActiveRecord::Base has_and_belongs_to_many :foos end class foo <

I''m yet another person looking to do some background Rails processing. >From post & the wiki, it looks like I should be using RailsCron. So I''m about to start playing. In parallel, I''d like to get some opinions re: database access. I have a table that I''d like to re-fresh periodically in the background. Is it safe, using RailsCron, to be accessing

I''ve created an array of hashes in UserController#initialize to describe a menu: @menu_array = [ {:menu => ''home'', :controller => ''home'', :action => ''send_home''}, {:menu => ''user list'', :action => ''list''}, {:menu => ''login'', :controller =>

I have an item which has a hash for one of its fields. When i store it in the db, i want to do a Marshal.dump of the hash, and similarly, do a Marshal.load to turn the saved blob back into a hash again. Is there a way to easily write this into the model, so that it happens automatically when saving and loading a record? thanks max -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.

Hello,   I am trying to write some code that dumps R objects to the harddisk in a binary format so they can be quickly re-used later. Goal is to save time. The objects may be quite large (e.g. classes for a GUI). I was thinking that save() and load() would be suitable for this (until now I only thought it could be used for 'real' data, e.g. matrices, data.frames etc), but I am hoping any

Hi I''ve created a migration called make_customer_type_id_not_null_for_customers. The migration .rb file looks like this: class MakeCustomerTypeIdNotNullForCustomers < ActiveRecord::Migration def self.up change_column(:customers, :customer_type_id, :integer, { :null => false }) end def self.down change_column(:customers, :customer_type_id, :integer, { :null =>
