similar to: Rails - ActiveRecord doesn't commit, cache problem ?

Buildings have units. Units have rooms. Rooms have people. I can grab building, room, and people IDs and store them in a session[:variable]. However, when creating a new unit, I need to give that session[:building_id] to ActiveRecord for creation. I''m not sure whether to use hidden fields or do it all in the model ''before_validation'' - in either case I

Hi there I''ve also made a start on the Agile Web Dev using Rails book! I''ve been hit with a problem when hitting the ''Add to Cart'' button - I get the following error message: ActiveRecord::RecordNotFound in StoreController#add_to_cart Couldn''t find Product without an ID RAILS_ROOT: ./script/../config/..

Hi, We are using a samba server as a NTLM authenticator for our web filter. However, Samba closes the SMB connections after 60 seconds of inactivity, causing connections from the web filter to the Samba DC to get stuck in CLOSE_WAIT state, and failing to authenticate the users. Is the some way, other than changing IDLE_CLOSED_TIMEOUT, or (in Samba 3.0.23) commenting the check that closes the TCP

Hi, I''m trying to use unicorn in a test deployment of a Rails app that uses Mongoid, so Activerecord isn''t included in the app. When I start unicorn through Capistrano though, the stderr log fills up endlessly with identical ActiveRecord-related errors: I, [2012-12-05T04:19:25.375952 #5096] INFO -- : Refreshing Gem list I, [2012-12-05T04:19:32.941249 #5096] INFO -- :

Hi guys, I am a pretty new developer for RoR, and I am wondering whether batch inserts for ActiveRecord are available. I know that ActiveRecord::Base::create accepts an array of hashes, but from the MySQL logs, I can see that the inserts are not batched. Would like to stay within the ActiveRecord framework, if possible. Thanks in advance for comments and suggestions. v -- Posted via

I''m trying to determine how/if I can use MySql''s spatial extensions with ActiveRecord. The spatial extensions usually require inserts in the following format: INSERT INTO `locations` (name, point) VALUES ("location name",GeomFromText(''POINT(<lng> <lat>'')); And reads as SELECT name, AsText(point) AS point FROM locations; While I

I often find myself in situations where I''m fighting against ActiveRecord because there is no easy way to alias some tables. For example, I''m converting a legacy application. So, there is a ''condition_type'' table that actually should be something like ''fields''. Also it can have a parent field and deletion is handled by setting a

SessionCleanup is a routine to clear out stale sessions from within a Rails application. A Rails application creates a new session for every connection. Over time, this leads to the accumulation of hundreds or thousands of stale session files or session records (if you''re using a database). These sessions are often cleaned out manually or by the use of a cron job. Neither of these

Hi, I have problems with Samba 3.0.0 on my debian box. I first noticed this problems after the last dist-upgrade of my debian installation. When I'm reading a file from the smaba share and browsing another share from the same samba server, I have several hangs and browsing is very slow. It seems that there are some timeouts. But I can't figure out a configuration problem, especialy

The MySQL/Ruby library doesn''t properly handle inserts into tables with the primary key being a BIGINT If the ID returned to the MySQL/Ruby library is LARGER than the INT range, the value is returned to Ruby truncated and incorrect. This is then passed up to ActiveRecord and into the id field of your model. The actual INSERT worked properly and when do you an ActiveRecord find for the

Hello, I'm trying to use a current Syslinux setup, that is working well for service linux based distros, to serve up recent Windows server installs. As I'm new here I'm reluctant to make any changes to the environment unless I've exhausted the current options. We are running Syslinux 3.71 on a Gentoo server and all the DHCP and tftpd are "working as they should". What

Hey guys, As most of you know, Rails 3.1 introduces query caching for ActiveRecord. Great change all-in-all, but for those of us with IT department mandates for using MySQL (yeah, yeah, I know...), it''s kind of a mixed bag. I need to disable query caching in a project I''m building based on 3.1. I''ve tried a couple different approaches, both without any success. I

value_to_boolean(value), does not always return a boolean value, only when true. 150: def value_to_boolean(value) 151: if value.is_a?(String) && value.blank? 152: nil 153: else 154: TRUE_VALUES.include?(value) 155: end 156: end If value is contained in TRUE_VALUES then it returns true(TrueClass). But if value is

Upgraded our app from Rails 2.2.2 to 2.3.4, and I''m now encountering an error when adding a child to a parent.

Hi, My project has been happily using ActiveRecord outside of Rails for some time to populate various databases that are also used in Rails based websites. I''d like to bring AAF into this setup to index new records that are added to the databases as they''re added. Has anyone had any success in installing and using AAF with ActiveRecord but outside the Rails plugin support? I

In part of my application I''m using dynamic tables. I''m aware of the single thread conditions. I''ve tackled some caveats yet - will post a blog about it soon - but there''s one I need help with. Consider 2 models that are associated: Order and OrderLine where Order has many order_lines. Now we set the table names for them:

Really no idea what''s up... class Auction < ActiveRecord::Base has_and_belongs_to_many :categories end class Category < ActiveRecord::Base has_and_belongs_to_many :auctions default_scope order(''title'') scope :active, where(:active => true) end class CategoriesController < ApplicationController respond_to :html, :json # GET /categories/:id

I have the following associations. class Document < ActiveRecord::Base has_many :document_sections, :dependent => :destroy, :autosave => true has_many :document_items, :through => :document_sections end class DocumentSection < ActiveRecord::Base belongs_to :document has_many :document_items, :dependent => :destroy, :autosave => true end class DocumentItem <

hi, I found a bug in ActiveRecord association SQL INNER JOIN codes. in has_many, has_one, habtm and belongs_to queries the foreign key is determined from the table name of reflection and self. but that''s worng because if you use a global prefix or suffix for your tables the foreign keys will be in format of PREFIX_CLASSNAME_SUFFIX_id which is wrong, because it breaks the advantage of

Sorry if this has been asked in the past, but the search function is still down... My scenario: For my research agency, I''m trying to download XML files from the National Weather Service (NWS) and import certain data into my SQL Server database.
