I had a statement that was generating a warning about parenthesise argument for future version. The interesting thing was it would crash the page with an input/output error on my production linux server, but worked fine in webbrick/windows. I finally tracked it down to it crashed when trying to print the warning to the console. If I kept the terminal open that I started the server on it would

In my rails application, certain computers were having huge problems. There were certain pages that were exceptionally slow, even to the point of timing out. Other computers did not have a problem. I finally found that Firefox was the difference. When using Firefox on those computers it works fine. The slow pages were typically posting a form with a couple hundred fields. This behavior was

Given the case of validating the presence of an attribute and then performing other tests on said attribute, how do you go about not having to check for nil in the other tests? Example: validates_presence_of :start_date, :end_date validate :validate_start_date_before_end_date def validate_start_date_before_end_date # without this check an exception will be thrown on access to the

has_many.count does not seem to support an options hash like ActiveRecord::Base.count does. Example: >> AcademicProgram.find(:first).course_requirements.count :conditions => "courses.name LIKE ''a%''", :include => :course => 40 >> ap.ap_requirements.count :conditions => "courses.name LIKE ''a%''", :include =>

It seems that using a join model that joins with two has_many''s will fail to generate proper SQL class StudentSemesterRecord < ActiveRecord::Base belongs_to :semester has_many :discipline_records, :through => :semester end class Semester < ActiveRecord::Base has_many :student_semester_records has_many :discipline_records end class DisciplineRecord <

I''m having some difficulty deciding where to put logic that crosses models. For example, given models people, departments, work schedules, and weeks. Where would the following best fit: who is scheduled to work in a given department in a given week? how many hours is a given person scheduled in a given week? how many hours is a given person scheduled in a department in given week? how

Hello everyone, I am trying to activate Music On Hold using DB on Asterisk 13.

My completely empty model (no validation callbacks etc etc) takes an average of 0.05 seconds to create, at least according to Benchmark.realtime{200.times{Message.create(:from => "me@here.com", :message_type => ''email'', :subject => "hello", :body => "goodbye", :sent_at => Time.now)}}/200 That''s a little slower than

I''m using observe_form in a place that does not require any response from the server. So I do not use an update paramater. But without it webbrick hangs for a couple seconds and returns a status 500. On occasion, there will even be an exception in webbrick''s output if I change the form then quickly click a link before the couple second hang is done. If a add an update, it

Is there some sort of good pattern for dealing with computed values with Rails/ActiveRecord? A simple example: 3 tables, classes, students, and student_class_records (habtm style relation but contains a good deal of additional state so is modeled explicitly) Something like select the 10 classes with the most students. Easy enough in SQL. So I''m using a lot of find_by_sql and

I have the following problem with outputting multilingual data to a file. I get (except for Korean) what I expect as result in the RGui, but when I use sink() to output to a text file loose the characters in the foreign languages. I post a small example below.

Hello all! I have two views (list_1 and list_2) that show a list of users in two different ways. In the views for these actions there is a link to edit a specific user properties (edit_user). That works fine, except that when I change the user I want to go back to the view that originated the request and not to the default list (list_1). Can anyone help me? Best regards, Hugo -- Posted via

How do you run an ad-hoc query that does not belong in any model? I thought it was something like ActiveRecord::connection.find("my query..."), but I can''t seem to find the documentation on it. I know I''ve seen it somewhere before, though. thanks, Jeff -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.

Hello, does anybody know how to implement a "Did you mean ...?" like Google with act_as_ferret? I think this is a possible way: 1. Generate a keyword-list (this is my difficulty. I don''t know how to build such a list from the index) with no stop-words from the first index. e. g. (car, ship, plant, house) 2. Build a second index from this word-list where we store the word in
