Hello Mongrel Users! This is my first post! Is there an expected release date for the fixed version of mongrel_service that will resolve the missing service::start command? I would love to use the much improved features of the new mongrel_service, but I haven''t been able to yet. I haven''t figured out how to follow Zed''s advice on a previous thread to just use the

There are several sites I''ve found on the web detailing how to setup IIS with Rails. Unfortunately they all seem to be woefully out of date. I believe they may all even be pre Rails 1.0. Can single sign on via Active Directory Services be accomplished through mod_NTLM for Apache, so users won''t have ot log into the intranet site after already having logged into their machine?

Ok here''s a quicky... but a goody :) We have models Company, Reference and Applicant... and References and Applicants just inherit from Company, and are basically companies with the type field set to reference... All companies can have a phone number associated with them, and phone number is a different model... I''m having trouble using the form_for method with a company that

I was thinking today, it would be nice if a view could tell a model how to format it''s data for that particular view. Kind of like, the view is bestowing instant, and temporary knowledge on the model for the duration of the views run. It seemed to me that this would be more objecty than say a helper that formats a string format_my_string( my_string ) Instead, in my view. Lets assume I

I have a common situation and would like best practice suggestions from some of you more experienced rails developers. In my DB I''ve normalized tables in a traditional manner, e.g. I have Posts which have authors stored in a Users table. My problem is when I go to show a list of Posts and I want to display the author name (e.g. post.author.name) ActiveRecord appears to do a SELECT

The one area I keep hitting my head against in Rails is repeating fields via javascript. I frequently have forms where one or more fields are actually broken out into sub tables because there can be multiple simultaneous values. Rails seems to want to you to use the [] construct in the form helpers (e.g. text_field(''employee[]'', ''name'')), but I can''t
