Railers: Greetings from the low end of the learning curve. I have installed all the prerequisites on Win32, including a lite MySQL database with a table in it called Inventory. Then I run this command line... ruby script/generate ajax_scaffold Inventory ...and I get this error message: error Before updating scaffolding from new DB schema, try creating a table for your model

Railsters: ActiveRecord''s validation system puts other database systems to shame. However, the newbies might not know how to write a regexp that excludes a match, instead of tests for it. Understand - I''m just asking this question to help them. I have been using Regexps since ''grep'' on Xenix! But the newbies here might not know how to do this:

Railsers: As usual for a product written very rapidly, most of its documentation assumes some other documentation told you something critical. For example, the file form_helper.rb tempts me with this documentation: # <% form_for :person, @person, :url => { :action => "update" }, :builder => LabellingFormBuilder do |f| %> That''s beautiful. Now what do I

Hello: I have radio buttons like this: <% fields_for :goalhist do |g| %> <table> <tr> <td align=left><%= radio_button_tag (''duedate'', 0, checked = false, options = {:onclick => ""}) %> &nbsp;&nbsp;Start now </td> </tr> <tr id="detailed" style="display: none"><td colspan=2>

Railsoids: FormTestHelper rules. It tests your response.body form at the same time as it triggers your action, with all the parameters in that form. This obviously improves quality. But it took issue with this: submit_form ''validate_stuff'' do |form| form[''IBhidden''] = ''validate'' end The field IBhidden is a hidden field. To be

My latest stupid web trick, built, with love, in Rails: http://wordie.org Make lists of words. See who else likes the same words. Basically, it''s a dating site. Built on thanksgiving while half-watching football and launched yesterday. In other words, half-baked, but I thought some of you might find it mildly amusing.

Railsers: The documentation for *.rhtml views invariably mentions *.rxml views. They sound like a Good Thing, because some of my generating code mixes Ruby and HTML so densely that the code is full of %><% markers. Dropping down to only one language would be a blessing. However, this documentation invariably avoids mentioning one tiny, insignificant detail: How do you inject raw HTML

I upgraded to Rails 1.2.1 and deployed to my ISP, who has 1.2.1 ready and waiting. The site disappeared into an HTTP 500 error. So I get into the site, run public/dispatch.cgi or dispatch.rb, and get this: # ./dispatch.rb Status: 400 Bad Request /usr/local/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/activesupport-1.4.0/lib/active_support/dependencies.rb:405:in `to_constant_name'': Anonymous modules have no

RSpeckers: I went with RSpec instead of Systir because I downloaded and installed the former first. (I know that''s not exactly a ringing endorsement! ;-) I want to compete with FIT and Fitnesse, like this: http://www.zeroplayer.com/cgi-bin/wiki?TestFlea#tropism (Click on a Green Bar to distend one test case.) I want a domain-specific language in the parchment-colored area on the

This is probably something very simple but I can''t seem to figure out why I keep getting the ''wrong number of arguments (1 for 2)'' error with the following code when I try to create a new record.

Railsers: I switched from MySQL to Sqlite3 for Test-Driven Development. It meant the difference between (Long term, I want to understand the db:migrate system well enough that I can run a long test, occassionally, that migrates everything to MySQL and retests it there. That will prevent nasty surprises at deployment time. But that''s not the current question!) Because I don''t

I''d like to try autocompletion, and my understanding based on AWDWR:2, and on various website tutorials, is that I should install the script.aculos.us javascript library. My question is how to do that. The instructions on their site tell me to "Put prototype.js, scriptaculous.js, builder.js, effects.js, dragdrop.js, slider.js and controls.js in a directory of your website,

I have been waiting for a tipping point to start using Ruby applications instead of PHP applications. My criteria include the availability of Ruby and RoR web hosts and Ruby equivalent applications readily available for PHP. I keep finding PHP applications to fill my needs but not Ruby applications or hosts offering Ruby support. For example, I use content management systems which are

This might be OT, but it is CentOS related.? I've been running Ansible on C7 for a handful of months now, and updated to 2.4 as soon as it was available. I've been building inventories by hand in that time (mostly due to the fact we had no actual documentation on the managed external customer servers). However, as we have a multiple VMware clusters, thought it might be time to tinker

I am trying to do file i/o with rails and rjb and can''t figure out a way to make this work. Here''s what I am trying to do: - a user uploads an image to the server via a standard html form: <%= file_field("blog", "attach") %> - this returns a ruby File object to the controller in params[:blog][:attach]

Hi Gurus- I want to return the variety from the species table based on the active record link to inventory table class Species < ActiveRecord::Base has_many :inventories end class Inventory < ActiveRecord::Base belongs_to :species (this is the singular and the plural, so that''s OK) end My inventory_controller looks like: def show @inventory =

I''ve been working through the book ''Beginning Ruby on Rails E-Commerce'' which is very heavy on Test Driven Development. As in, you have to write tests for scaffolding methods and validations and crap like that. And then they fail. And you KNOW its the test not the method. So you spend 2x the time writing a test that has to be adapted when requirements change. You
