similar to: Created_at date/time if off by UTC-5 hours ?

So, I wrote some pages which essentially created some articles which are saved to a database, which also include both the "magic" rows ''created_at'' and ''updated_at''. Now, on my development machine I''m running the MySQL-database and everything worked as I wanted it to. On the live server I''ve had to switch to PostgreSQL 8.1 due to

I''m using Pfeed(http://github.com/parolkar/pfeed) plugin for User Activity Feeds. It creates PfeedItem model records and uses created_at field for a lot of stuff inside. Now I need to export/import those user logs. I do exporting to YAML. When I reconstruct PfeedItem AR object from YAML, it have real(old) creation time in created_at attribute. When I save this PfeedItem - there is new

Hello, I am running into a little issue. There is a considerable time difference between the time that the console is giving me and the time I am seeing in the created_at and updated_at column in the DB. The difference is about 5 hours. I don''t think the problem is in the DB, but I could be wrong. Am I missing something obvious? Any clues? -- You received this message because you are

Hi Experts, I''ve a model called Product where i''ve column called created_at, updated_at where i''ve made a query based on Oracle date format like date_of_created = ''23-SEP-07'' @product = Product.find(:all, :conditions => ["created_at=?", date_of_created]) but in view its empty. AND EXPERTS I''VE DATA WITH 24-SEP-07 FOR MORE

With a has_one/belongs_to relationship, what''s the best way to guarantee that the belongs_to object gets created and is accessible alongside the has_one object? I *think* the after_create callback is a good choice, but I discovered an oddity while trying it. F''rinstance, if every horse has a carriage: ============ ActiveRecord::Schema.define do create_table(:horses) {|t|

I thought I had this fixed, but apparently not. It works okay from the console, but not from the view. I have the following: # partial schema create_table "users", :force => true do |t| t.string "login", :null => false t.string "first_name" t.string "last_name" t.string "email", :null => false

Hi All, I added a column to the sessions table called "created_at" in order to allow the created time to be recorded. However, different from other Models, the column does not update automatically. Therefore, what codes should I add to update the sessions."created_at" value? It is important for avoiding hacker keeping the sessions alive. Thanks much! Arthur -- Posted via

Hi, I''m having some problem with getting collection_select to return the current value when editing a record. According to everything I''ve seen, there was an issue but it''s been fixed, but I can''t figure out why it isn''t returning the current value as a selected option. I''ve checked the table structures, and both the call_driver.product_line_id

I have an application where user sets his/her preferred date/time format. User is expected to enter datetime in his preferred format across the application. Now the problem is for few formats the datetime is parsed wrongly while create/update ActiveRecord. For example user has set date/time format in hh:mm dd/MM/yyyy. Now if user enters 17:00 04/05/2012 it parses it as 5 PM 5 Apr, 2012 where it

I''m doing a request from a Rails app to another Rails app with ActiveResource. When the format on ActiveResource is XML: Content.find(:all)[0,2].map(&:attributes) => [ {"updated_at"=>Mon Apr 27 15:04:32 UTC 2009, "url"=>"www.google.com", "id"=>1, "created_at"=>Mon Apr 27 15:04:32 UTC 2009},

I was reading a book and following the instructions in it. >> class Story < ActiveRecord::Base; end => nil >> story = Story.new => #<Story id: nil, name: nil, url: nil, created_at: nil, updated_at: nil> >> story.class => Story(id: integer, name: string, link: string, created_at: datetime, updated_at: datetime) I do not remember me asking for id, name, link or

Anyone have an idea on this? Got a weird situation where on a specific model I can not create an instance using params, yet it works fine on other models. The model which does not work is a stock model, there is no logic in it. Ruby 1.8.7/Rails 3.0.5. Does not work: (rdb:1) PaymentTransaction.create(:purchase_id => 3) #<PaymentTransaction id: 2, purchase_id: nil, action: nil, amount: nil,

Hi, Thanks for a wonderful Getting Started with Rails. I am up to the last section and just added the comments part. So while testing and looking over comments_controller.rb; I see the reference to post_comment_url calll where is this defined. Below is the message I am getting. Thanks ActionController::RoutingError (post_comment_url failed to generate from {:post_id=>#<Post id: 1, name:

I have a test/fixtures/users.yml like so: apa: id: 1 username: apa [...] created_at: <%=Time.now.strftime("%Y-%m-%d %H:%M:%S")%> updated_at: <%=Time.now.strftime("%Y-%m-%d %H:%M:%S")%> I don''t like how I''m repeating myself with the strftime bit. Is there some shorter Time method to format time for a (MySQL) datetime field that

Hi... Isn''t there a proper way or hack/workaround for the following? * For the example with unfortunate disabilities.. look below,,, Usage of has_* (associationmethods) do {def with_deleted AccociatedModel#with_scope} {Paranoid''s#find_with_deleted}... The has_one associations give me a nil object when invoking it with Model.association_OBJECT.with_deleted. Has_many does like

First, BRAVO for this wonderful plugin: has_many_polymorphs ! Now my problem: 4 models : Collection, Page, Fragment, Belonging (which is the join table): 1 class Collection < ActiveRecord::Base 2 has_many_polymorphs :elements, 3 :through => :belongings, 4 :from => [:pages, :fragments, :collections], 5 :as => :collector, 6 :parent_order =>

Hello All, I am very new to Ruby on Rails and I have a quick question for you all, which is as follows: I have this following line of code in an partial that renders itself on the posts/index view: Created By (User): <%= User.find(:all, :select => ''name'', :conditions => ["id = ?", 1]) %> (I am hard-coding that ''1'' there) Now, when I run

I''m having a real problem with nil objects in a view I''m playing with. if I type ... <%= debug lesson.lesson_register.attendees %> I get the following displayed in the browser .... - !ruby/object:Attendee attributes: enrollee_id: "25" created_at: 2009-08-27 15:10:41 updated_at: 2009-08-27 15:10:41 id: "1" attended: f

Hi all, I''m seeing some unexpected behaviour in a nested model and I''m not sure if it''s a bug or if I''m doing something wrong. When assigning nested attributes, the associated object gets replaced with a new record. Example code: class Car < ActiveRecord::Base belongs_to :driver end class Car < ActiveRecord::Base belongs_to :driver end
