similar to: Testing an action behind HTTP Authentication

So, I''m working on adding iCal support to my app. Since I want to restrict users to their own calendars, form-based authentication isn''t going to work, so I''m using the Basic HTTP Authorization from this page - http://blogs.23.nu/c0re/stories/7409/ Everything works fine in my dev machine, but on the server (Site5), I get the login prompt ad infinitum. Has anyone run

Hello All, I''m making a quick application that tracks outgoing links to referral sites. I need to track the user and the url they went to so the easiest way would be to take the entire url as a parameter and log that into the database.

Hi Folks, I''ve been getting reports of people with serious stability problems in Mongrel. These problems go away instantly when they remove ruby-sendfile. If your mongrel starts up saying that you have "sendfile installed" and that it is using it then **you are wrong**. Remove the gem and don''t use it. I''ll be investigating why it doesn''t really

Hi ! I''m no expect when it comes time to configure Apache. I just enabled page caching in my Rails app, and am now looking at making Apache serve the cached files instead of calling into Rails. I know Mongrel is able to serve cached files if it finds them, but I''d like Apache to do it. Looking at .htaccess, there is this section: RewriteEngine On RewriteRule ^$ index.html

Does anyone have a good example or know of some documentation about how to implement "Edit in Place" using Rails 1.1? Like the functionality in Flickr... I''ve googled and googled and can''t find any good documentation. Maybe it''s because 1.1 is so new? Thanks in advance. -Andy

I''m running a rails app on FedoraCore4 and so far have been using lighttpd and fastcgi. I''ve decided to switch to apache because lighttpd has been far too unstable, unpredictable, and slow. I don''t know if it''s lighttpd or the combination of lighttpd and fastcgi but it''s just not working for me. I need something that has been proven to work and

There is a big difference if you are not running a pure rails site. I am doing auth apache-side because I serve static content, perl scripts via cgi and feed the mongrel pack from Apache. The REMOTE_USER variable value can be passed to rails using a technique described deep down in one of the informative pieces on the Mongrel website.
