Anyone know what''s up with the activerecord session store when using the oracle adapter in Rails 2.0.2 ? I can set a session variable and can then see it''s actually set using the debugger, but after the request completes the session is empty (the @data member is nil). The session_id is staying the same and the updated_at field is being updated but nothing I put in a session

Hi, While I was hacking ovirt-server, I have found that it's currently restricted to Postgres DB. Even if I like postgres for serious work on a server, I really prefer to hack/dev locally on a Sqlite or MySQL DB. I have googled on rails in order to find a good answer for the "foreign key problem" which forces OVirt to stay on pg. I have found a plugin on this particular

Folks, I am using ruby 1.8.5 with rails 1.2.3 and have made changes to mysql_adapter.rb based on recommendations made here http://wiki.rubyonrails.org/rails/pages/StoredProceduresInMySql to be able to use stored procs in my code.

I am writing a library module to handle certain StatementInvalid type AR exceptions. I wish to catch the case where the db adapter in use is not supported by the module.

Hi all, Ruby 1.8.4 Rails 1.1 OCI8 0.1.14 I think I''m hitting an issue with ActiveRecord::Base#save and the Oracle adapter.

Hi there, This always used to work for me... but not now. I want to blame Rails 1.2 but I''m sure its not. I can''t use AR models in my migrations. To make sure its not just my dodgy code I tried to do the same with a well known plugin.. acts_as_versioned. A migration such as the one below (taken from acts_as_versioned) is giving the error undefined method

Hi all, I am in the process of adding Migration support to the Ingres ActiveRecord adapter and have run in to a problem. During the call to create_table the Ingres adapter some how causes ruby to blow the stack and coredump/segv. I have tracked down the problem down to "add_column_options!" in "lib/active_record/connection_adapters/abstract/schema_statements.rb".

I have concluded that it is impossible to get this background process stable. I am out of ideas and could really use some help. Here is what I have: 50 workers, just running an infinite loop that constantly calls save! on a model. Keep in mind this is just for testing purposes. I catch all exceptions and put them in the log. I am tried setting allow_concurrency to true and false. Neither

Hello, What''s the best way to deal with dates prior to 1970 using Rails.

Full story: I''d like to mangle ActiveRecord::ConnectionAdapters::SchemaStatements so when it creates a new sql table, it also (optionally) creates my created_at, deleted, key_id, session_id etc columns that I use on basically all tables.
