#set_status http://merb.devjavu.com/browser/trunk/lib/merb/mixins/render.rb#L270 refers to a non-existent constant. I tried, while creating #359, to make things OK, but I failed. I started by using STATUS_CODES instead, then used #[] instead of calling a method named STATUS_CODES, then I found out that during the call to #inherited

Hi people, just thought I''d mumble out my thoughts on merb''s apps directory structure and config concepts and see what other people are feeling... the app dir: mvc/application is layed out as expected....maybe without the mailer by default (another discussion) the config dir: I really think that it''s confusing to have such a mixture of ways to configure some

Is there an agreed upon method for handling exceptions thrown by something outside of Merb? For example, DataMapper now throws a DataMapper::ObjectNotFoundError when a record isn''t found in the db. I''d like to catch these exceptions and raise a C:E:NotFound exception instead, but without having to wrap a lot of code in begin/rescue/end blocks. Thanks, Mike Irwin

I had redirects working just the other day... before I upgraded to the latest release. Can somebody please chime in as to why this simple redirect is throwing an error? Controller: ----------------------- def do redirect "http://www.ebay.com" end Error Output: ------------------------- Internal server error 500 uninitialized constant Merb::ControllerMixin::MovedTemporarily in

Is anyone using formats with the url generator in trunk? I can''t figure it out and it seems to be unimplemented in the router code. I want to do something like url(:articles, :format => "xml") # => /articles.xml or url(:formatted_articles, :format => "xml") -- Geoffrey Grosenbach ........................

Hi all, I''m wondering about my sanity here. There''s probably something simple I overlooked. First off, I have close to zero experience with Merb. 1. I configured use_orm :activerecord in config/dependencies.rb; 2. I have a file named app/models/measurement.rb which looks like this: class Measurement < Observation end 3. I have another file named

The original: http://pastie.textmate.org/private/lqvrlyyvkv2kbugoxtiz6w Send your submissions to me by email or on #merb. I''ll blog it, and pick a winner. The winner does not mean it makes it into Merb, just means I personally like it best. But it might make it into Merb. # Scenario: # You have a simple application that lists all the monkeys at the zoo. # Every monkey has a

Hi all ! I can''t seem to make a simple thing work... The code is here: http://pastie.caboo.se/130660 Essentially, that''s a form with a couple of partials. The backtrace is included in the pastie. It looks like the context for the current view is lost when a partial is rendered. In _series.html.erb:2, I use "series" to get the name. This is the parameter I

Ez (or someone) asked on #merb tonight whether respond_to was the right API for what it does. After some discussion and pasties, I offer the following proposed API for content negotiation and response format selection: First, what does respond_to do right now? I see at as performing 3 distinct operations: 1. parse params[:format] and the accepts header to find out what format the

the constants update (http://pastie.caboo.se/137630) is cleaner... but... am I right in thinking that rake tasks are now a bit buggered? Looks like a search/replace was performed, but its now impossible to set an environment for rake tasks? chrisfarms -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed... URL:

As a novice to Wine I've been trying to run the old spreadsheet program Lotus 123 release 5 (1994) under Fedora Core3. I'm using the default wine config with one change under [Version] "Windows" = "win95". I have little knowledge of gdb. I get the following errors after I mount the first of seven 3.5in floppies. Can anyone give me some pointers? Please e-mail me

Hi list: I started to make a quick GemPlugin command [ssl::start] that sets up an stunnel before calling the normal [start] command. so $ mongrel_rails ssl:start will do everything that start normally does and configure/setup an stunnel. The question... Obviously this plugin will require stunnel to be installed. What do you think is the best move: 1) nothing, just require that people

I''m trying to emulate the mongrel_cluster_ctl but it takes a -c conf_file option... meaning I can run it from anywhere as long as I tell it where the conf file is. Merb doesn''t have that capability does it? (it has an additional/supplemental config like mup.conf etc) Do I have to be under the merb_app root /path/to/merb/app/ to be able to run merb? Let me know. Thanks,

I''m following merb trunk. This morning I updated my gems, sync''d merb source and installed the merb gem from source. I don''t know if I did something wrong, or if a new gem messed things up, or if there was a merb change which broke something. Now I get this error: Request: REQUEST_URI: / (2007-11-05 20:27:04) Params: {"action"=>"index",

All, I see this item on the merb-0.0.8 release notes Added rails session parasite mode. I am assuming merbs can piggy back off the rails current session. How does one achieve that ?

Trunk Issue: Because of the use of ''autoload'', template handlers other than Erubis are not loaded automatically (Haml, XMLBuilder). Either this should be fixed, or the documentation should be updated to instruct people how to use non-Erb template engines. Apparently the solution is to do something like this in merb_init.rb: ::Merb::AbstractController.register_engine

Ezra, * test harness in new generated merb apps with helpers for testing merb without starting a server. * pin down plugin arch Seems to me that these two tasks go together unless you want to have rspec built in Merb. Regarding the test harness, my understanding is that: - a developer should be able to easily write specs against a merb application. - a developer should not need to start a merb

Has anyone had troubles from Mongrel > 1.0.1? Just curious, because the last time I tried to run Merb it gave me some Mongrel error about the wrong number of arguments, or something like that. I can post the exact message tonight when I get home. -- Cheers, Kevin Williams http://kevwil.com/ http://www.almostserio.us/ http://kevwil.jaiku.com/

Hi, first off thanks Ezra for Merb - it''s certainly interesting and I''m keen to have a play. However, I''m having difficulties in getting started. I''ve followed the docs for setting up mrblog and everything seems to be installed correctly, and merb appears to start fine: $ merb you must install the markaby gem to use .mab templates you must install the

Hi there I just started my first Merb app and I''m running into some weird things in Specs. When I do: describe "create action" do it "should create a new project" do project_params = {:name => ''bekkunin''} Project.should_receive(:create).with(project_params) controller, action = post(''/projects'', :project
