I altered the article to use a migrations approach with the code from the migration I created to add the two tables,

Hello ~ I have an email that I need to attach a PDF to. The email is being sent, and a file is attached but it is not the original file.

Hello ~ I have a working ActionMailer Action that takes the template to use as an argument so I have one action that handles multiple emails. The email sends just fine, and the correct email templates are used, but ActionMailer is throwing in its own text/plain section in addition to the one I specify.

Hello ~ I have posted a tutorial on my blog, http://www.benr75.com/pages/lighttpd_awstats_tutorial, on how to get AWStats and Lighttpd to work together.

Hello Everyone ~ Recently I have been moving Rails files between Mac, Linux, and Windows. As many know the Windows Ruby version 1.8.4 doesn''t like tab characters. I know in TextMate on the mac you can replace your tabs with spaces from the Text > Convert menu, but is there a way to set it to do tabs with spaces instead as you work? The preferences do not seem to have such a

Hello Everyone ~ Last week I started having a dispatch.fcgi process go out of control on my Linux server. If I don''t catch it the process will eat my RAM, and devour my swap file until the machine becomes non-responsive. I am running Lighttpd and have not had any issues until lately. The logs are not telling me anything useful, and as a quick fix I am running the site using Mongrel,

Hello All ~ As suggested I upgraded Ruby to 1.8.4 along with Rails. My Linux boxes have been running 1.8.4 and haven''t complained about my source.

Hello ~ I have run into an issue with some of my objects not behaving as I expect. Basically I am using STI on my Users table and have several types of users. BaseUser --UserType1 < BaseUser --UserType2 < BaseUser etc.... Recently when I create a UserType object and save it to the database it ignores the validation rules for the parent class BaseUser.

I have an app that uploads files into the directory RAILS_ROOT/documents/ I tried to access the file for downloading using <a href="#{RAILS_ROOT}/documents/file_name">my file</a>.

Hi, I posted this before, but didn''t get an answer, so I''m trying again. I''ve recently decided to use OpenID to let users log in to my site instead of old fashioned account creation. They''ll be able to add a small amount of personal details (about three things) to their account, and post messages in the site BB. I have an openid_users table which stores the

I have an e-commerce site and users check out with a form. The results of that form are sent to a "confirm your order" page via POST. I take great pains to NEVER store the full credit card number on my server--just the last 4 digits. I was very surprised to find that by default Rails will record POST requests with parameters in the production.log. And those parameters
