Hi, as it is not possible for me to use a sensible development environment to start with I have to use emulations. I use Cygwin on windows and also Colinux. (Colinux is really amazing cause it lets you run actual linux binaries und Windows.) So here is my problem, which by the way exists since Rails 0.5.0 I think. It was the reason I tried Colinux in the first place, cause the error first

Hi, In a few words, can someone explain to me the NoMethodError. Googling for answers will get you to something but a direct answer from experts will give you something.

Hey, I''m new, so apologies if I''ve overlooked obvious resources or violated any etiquette rules for this list.

I''m banging my head over this really strange error in a view test when I run "rake spec". The weird thing is that I don''t get the error when I run the spec file by itself. Here is the spec (I know, fixtures are the devil): describe "/units/new.html.erb here" do fixtures :units, :accounts, :groups it_should_behave_like

Hey All, I''m trying to do a simple form_for (and I also get it with form_tag) and I''m getting the following error: ActionView::TemplateError (No :secret given to the #protect_from_forgery call.

Hi everyone, coming from PHP something in the .rhtml files has been confusing the heck out of me.
