I''ve finally determined that the best way to handle administration of a model that displays publicly but is administered privately is through subclassing but I''ve run in to pathing issues (I think) when trying to create an instance of my model.

Is it just me or doesn't all the Win32 files have unix-style EOL codes? I downloaded the nightly CVS tarball and tried to compile it in Visual Studio 6 but it failed partly because of that reason. It didn't even want to recognize some of the files (ie *.dsp files). It's a fairly simple operation to fix the problem but I don't know if it's my fault or if it realy something in

Hi there basically following the "Agile Web Development With Rails, 2nd Edition" i followed the tutorial exaclty, worked fine, so i decided to change one thing on page 74 instead of: ruby script/generate model product i used: ruby script/generate model propertys and: depot_a/db/migrate/001_create_products.rb ~/Rails/ecom/db/migrate$ cat 001_create_propertys.rb class

Hello, I''m working through the tutorial, and I''ve run into a little snag. In the first part of the tutorial, the destroy link is not working correctly. I can''t figure out where I goofed.

I am getting an error when I try to run the code for the depot application (page 67 in the Agile Web Development on Rails book, 2nd edition). I built the complete depot app with Rails 1.2.6, and all worked well. I then updated to Gem 1.0.1 and RoR 2.0.2, and attempted to repeat the tutorial, and got this strange behavior. I used "rails depot --database=mysql" because I have not

Hi All I wanted a little advice on the convention for namespace usage and organisation of code.

I''m trying to emulate this in Rails but feel I''m missing a significant point here and

Hi, I have four controllers: one for the store front and three for the store admin. In each controller I have copied and pasted exactly the same code. It is a method called redirect_to() to override Action Controller''s redirect_to(). Copy and paste is bad. I can think of two options but I don''t know how Rails will feel about them. Option 1: Can I create an intermediate

Hello! I have certain methods in my Application Controller, that I need to access. Namely ApplicationController#logged_in_user The problem is, that when I try to access it, I get: NoMethodError: protected method `logged_in_user'' called for #<AdminController> Any ideas how I can circumvent that?
