So I''ve worked through Agile Web Development with Rails and I''m now trying my first little app to get into the swing of things.

Hi all, I am starting out learning Ruby on Rails (coming from a PHP background) and I have a question about proper database design. Let me give you a quick example of what I want to do: Database: CREATE TABLE `users` ( `id` int(11) NOT NULL auto_increment, `login` varchar(40) default NULL, `email` varchar(100) default NULL, `crypted_password` varchar(40) default NULL, `salt`

Hello, I am trying to put my rails app on a host .So I presume the method to do this is to first do rake db_schema_dump and then copy it to the host and do rake db_schema_import. I use mySQL Ver 14.7 Distrib 4.1.14, for pc-linux-gnu (i686) using readline 4.3 ** Invoke db_schema_import (first_time) ** Invoke environment (first_time) ** Execute environment ** Execute db_schema_import rake

Hi all, This testing problem has been a sink for time today, and is still unresolved. Basically I have some unit tests that test simple functions (example below) that depend on join operations in a habtm relationship, and I suspect I am getting "false" failures, i.e ones that do not logically make any sense. I need fresh sets of eyes to take a look and see if I''m mising

Hi! When I run test:units, rails complains about the tables already being present. They had to be present so I could run individual unit tests. So why doesn''t rails just drop the tables if they exist? Any ideas??

For some reason whenever I try and create a timestamp column with migrations and mysql I get a datetime column instead. That''s kind of annoying because I want the column to update every time the row gets changed. Is this a bug, or is there something I can do about it? (Obviously I can manually change my mysql table, but that kind of defeats the point of migrations!) In my migration

I?m following along a few tutorials on the web and trying to implement my own example, but I must be missing something because I can?t get has_many or belongs_to to work like I expected. now I have watched all the videos and made a cookbook several times with different interfaces. what I''m looking for is *not* a code snippet to solve something (because I already have that),
