Has anyone experienced "hangs" with the WEBrick/OCI8 combination? The sequence of actions I perform to consistently get WEBrick to hang is: 1. start WEBrick 2. list a table form my Oracle 10g DB 3. startup sqlplus and update a few records in the table 4. go back to my browser and reload the table Here none of the chances I made directly to the table are reflected in the listing.

I''m new at this so please be patient. I have a very simple schema consisting of a around 10 tables in Postgresql. The aim is to provide a system for PC administrators to keep track of PC''s dotted around various venues (shops, libraries etc.). The sort of info I want to store is PC specs, PC network specs, PC ownership specs, PC location specs and contact person details. So I end

Hi folks, Does anyone know how to tackle Swedish letters in Rails. Am I completely off track in thinking that it should be done using map or regex in some clever way? Bealach

I am using tar2rubyscript to package up a rails application and run it as one file from the server. If you run script/server and have lighttpd install it will start lighty instead of webrick. So, thanks to Erik Veenstra''s suggestion, I add ARGV.unshift("webrick") to the init.rb file to force webrick to start: ARGV.unshift("webrick") load "script/server"

Sorry to have to post this again - it was probably under the wrong subject and went unnoticed. Is there a standard for providing user documentation for methods that I expose through we services? The default documentation (method names and return types) that appears when the user visits http://localhost:3000/backend/invoke is concise and correct, but a bit terse. How can I give my users a little

Hi folks, I need your opinions on a basic design issue. I''ve seen the light of RoR and have replaced my Perl (DBI/CGI) based web server <-> RDBMS communication with RoR, but I still have a whole host of users (other servers/OS''s etc) out there wanting to talk to my RDBMS and they only talk Perl. Also they don''t want to talk Perl/DBI directly (they are not allowed

I''m sorry to be asking trivial questions, but I''m new to RoR and am hooked :), so I''m very impatient to get things up and running. given two related tables, "pcs" and "venues" (venues have many PC''s and each PC belongs to one venue only) I can use a select() to present venue names in the "new PC" form along with other PC details to

Hi folks, Does anyone know how to install the OCI8 ruby interface on Debian64 without having to install Oracle? My understanding, from experience with Debian i386, is that you need Oracle (specifically the SQLPlus) installed to be able to compile OCI8. Since my new dev machine is AMD64 running Debian, I''m stuck. My rails applications need to connect to a remote Oracle 10g, but cannot

Hi, Is anyone using Oracle with RoR successfully? Is everything running smoothly? What are the main issues? any response is appreciated thanks, Chris -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.

Hi ! I''m new to this mailing list ! I''m just beginning to learn ruby programmation, ( so far mainly coded php web apps, and math algorithms with Caml ), so i''m a noob about libraries, toolkits, etc .... I wondered what does the end user need to run wxruby applications ? _ On Windows, he''ll need the ruby interpreter ( such as the one click ruby installer ), and

Hi Folks, I''m having trouble with setting up web services with layered dispatching. I''ve defined my controller (backend_controller.rb) as: class BackendController < ApplicationController web_service_dispatching_mode :layered web_service_scaffold :invoke web_service (:car) {CarService.new} end and my service (node_service.rb) as:

I''ve developed a Rails application that I''d like to make generally available, but I''m not sure how to go about this, or even what tools are most appropriate. Is this something that the Rails framework provides, or is it a job for Rake? for Rubygems? for Tar2rubyscript or Rubyscript2exe? A pointer to a "Distributing your Rails Application" would be ideal. --

Running ruby script/generate scaffold Product Admin is a wonderful way to set up well, exactly what it says, a scaffold. My problem is that I have several other tables that are linked, through foreign keys, to the Product table. Say an "authors" table. Now when I go enter a new product, a book, I want the application to provide a drop down list of authors generated from the records in

hi, i have a situation where i have a list of options from which a user selects his options if its not in the list he/she selects Others/Not Present and a new textfield should pop up and the data entered there should be considered instead of dropdown. i have done this using javascript/dhtml but i was wondering how this can be done using pure rails i.e using some of the RoR apis?. i would

hi, i have noticed that the validations in RoR happen at server side mostly what sites do is using javascript they validate user information there... whats the point of doing it at the server side is it that loading of javascript file in a browser makes a response to client slow and validation at server side offsets that....????? any sugeestions???? is it that i am missing something as

Hi, I have a question about bundle: RoR + oracle + bind variables. Heaving read forums/blogs/etc I found out RoR does not use bind vars for oracle particularly (and for all adapters in general). Then I found Michael''s patch (http://dev.rubyonrails.org/attachment/ticket/5199/oracle_bind.patch) but it was not added to the following RoR versions (since the end of May). As I suppose it was

hi, here is a snippet code in ROR''s attribure_accessor.rb. the usage of class_eval is different with "class_eval(string, <, file, <line>>)" somewhat, i don''t understand this usage, who can explain it more detail to me? def cattr_writer(*syms) syms.flatten.each do |sym| class_eval(<<-EOS, __FILE__, __LINE__) unless defined?
