similar to: Rails not creating session files??

I started a php-based website a few months ago with a buddy of mine on netfirms.com. I was perusing their knowledge base and I came upon a quick-start for something called Ruby on Rails. Since then I have immersed myself in RoR. I''ve done the tutorials, I''ve purchased the books. But, I could never get even a sample RoR app to work on netfirms. 500 server errors.

HI, I''ve gotten this Rails Recipe running fine (a bit before I completely understand it) except when the signin is incorrect I return an error(below).

Hello, I am currently working on implementing some authentification code onto Instiki (0.11.0).

I created a user login system in ApplicationController. There is a def called signin. It needs a view file, signin.rhtml I have a couple of other controllers inheriting from ApplicationController. Where can I place the view file so it is viewable across all controllers? I tried the root view folder but that didn''t work. Right now, I would have to copy and paste the signin.rhtml file

I have login authentication set for the submit action of a form. I want the form to be visible to unauthenticated users but when they fill in the form and submit it, I want it to redirect to the login page and then onto the original form submission action after the user is authenticated. This part is easy. The hard part is, how do I pass the parameters collected from the original form

I''m posting this because I ran into a problem and had difficulty tracking down the answer. In fact, the answer was in another ruby-forum post, but the Search feature didn''t locate it via the keywords I was using. Hopefully my Subject line will help more people find this solution. PROBLEM: I upgraded from Rails 1.1.6 to 1.2.3. When I did something that required me to sign in, I

Im still following the authorization recipe from the book, now all works fine but im getting trouble in how handle the model authorization result, if the user and pass are correct, it goes to a welcome screen(admin.rhtml) but if wrong the model prints a message in an ugly exception like page "usr and pass not correct", i want to redirect the user to the login
