I can not find a single post on this but trying to start mongrel_rails after closing it down I get the strangest error I have ever seen. Nothing on Google anywhere at all - please can somebody give some expertise?

It seems that attachment_fu is a pretty popular plugin (it''s great), but I''ve been having a terrible time trying to figure out an issue when using "update_attributes". I''m storing files on the file system rather than in a database. It seems that when "update_attributes" is called with a new file, upload_data= tries to copy a file that

Hi. I have a simple application and I want to add a file upload functionality. How can I write a spec? Here''s my try. # directory structure app: - controller.rb - controller.spec.rb - files: [] - fixtures: [test_file.png] # controller.spec.rb require ''rack/test'' require ''controller'' module MyHelpers def app Sinatra::Application end end

I''m using Mac OS X, I installed Ruby/Rails/lighttpd/etc via the instructions from hivelogic. I think I''ve found a bug with EdgeRails, but I''m not sure how to submit it (and maybe I''m doing something wrong and someone can just point me in the right direction). Anyway I thought I''d report it just in case it is a bug. I''ve downloaded

I''ve got a block of code that''s turning out.. well - just plain ugly. So i know I must not be doing it the Ruby way. The main problem I''m having is in dealing with handling errors - and just not finding much Rails documentation that gives a deeper understanding of how to handle errors in Rails (outside of several docs on the catch-all''s) the main method

Man I am frustrated. 4 hours working on this and i can''t find an answer. Here it goes. I had some simple date select fields on a form. Then I wanted to add some additional datetime fields on a form with a nice widget so I installed the dhtml_calendar plugin. Now my migrations and forms don''t work on insert stating that the argument is out of range. Here is line #62 in the

I created an integrations test that attempted to uploade a file as follows: def uploaded_file(path, content_type="application/octet-stream", filename=nil) filename ||= File.basename(path) t = Tempfile.new(filename) FileUtils.copy_file(path, t.path) (class << t; self; end;).class_eval do alias local_path path define_method(:original_filename) {

I currently run a handfull of sites on a MediaTemple VPS - which is blazing fast and very cheap for what I get. BUT installing rails and mysql v4 was a major pain in my ass, along with other things. I''m considering switching to a Textdrive business hosting plan but wanted to get some feedback from list members first. I pay about $200 a month quarterly for my MediaTemple service.

Hey Everyone, According to the comments section in this blog post MediaTemple has their own capistrano deploy script: http://blog.vixiom.com/2006/10/12/media-temple-tames-the-beast-new-ruby-on-rails-hosting-service-with-mongrel/ The problem is that this deploy script refers to a file called ''mt-capistrano'' that I can''t find anywhere. Does anyone have any suggestions

I am just getting started with Rake. I am trying to create a rake task from within a rails plugin to copy some asset files (inside /assets in my plugin folder) to my rails application /public folder. How can I achieve this? I am not sure whether to use FileUtils or File. Where AM I in rake terms. No matter what I do it keeps saying it can''t find the file. Do I need to use File.join or is

Does anybody know how to make FileUtils and ActiveRecord coexist? Every attempt I have made results in errors like those quoted below.

Hello, I did a seemingly smooth install of ferret, but when I try to add it to my model, I get an error. My info: My rails site: shelikes (a restaurant review site) My controller: Display My model: Review My only line of code added for ferret is: class Review < ActiveRecord::Base acts_as_ferret ...( more stuff not related )... end Below is the error information. Any thoughts on how

Hello, thought I''d share my experience with rails on the mediatemple.com grid server. They offer a 64 MB mongrel container 1 TB of bandwith and 1,000 grid processing units for $20 a month. In theory I love it because they already have done all the load balancing work for you. The DB is on another machine, you have access too 100s of machines on "the grid" and just pay extra

I am looking to create a simple dialog window like this on a page: http://developer.yahoo.com/yui/examples/container/simpledialog/2.html I know scriptaculous comes with Rails, not YUI, but I can''t find anything similar there. Is there any shortcut to doing this with existing plugins or core stuff?, or must I download another toolkit? thanks Sam

Hi All, I''m hosting with MediaTemple who are currently using 0.3.3 of mongrel on their GridServer. My rails app has an image upload facility whereby if you upload a large image (e.g. 5Mb) mongrel crashes. I''ve requested an upgrade to the latest version of mongrel but don''t believe that''s going to happen too soon. I''m not getting too much

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''ve setup a new mongrel cluster on my VPS, and am noticing a lot if 503 errors if I try to hit the server too many times in succession in a few seconds. I''ve read that this is usually caused by the cluster crashing, but I haven''t been seen the cluster crash when I do this. Does anyone have any other ideas what might cause this? I have my server configured how

Even if I am using PaperClip & Delayed_job, I guess the issue maybe solved by FileUtisl gurus ... here is the case : I am testing a delayed video format transcoding , transcoding works perfectly but I get an issue -trying to write back the transcoded video from a tmp directory into the PaperClip path the original uploaded video file is stored into the :url => "/system/
