I was thinking about having instance variable stored and fetched from session container automatically before calling an action and after the action is finished. Using methodology of accessors it would look like: class MyController < ActionController::Base persistent_attr :person def alfa person = ''John Smith'' # render as usual view alfa.rhtml with anchor

This might be a problem with postgresql, but I''m not sure. In a migration I have renamed a table so I wanted to rename a sequencer as well. It looks like: execute "ALTER TABLE global_vacations_id_seq RENAME TO vacations_id_seq;" execute "ALTER TABLE vacations ALTER COLUMN id SET DEFAULT nextval(''vacations_id_seq''::regclass);" But the process of

Hi, As many of you know I also wrote the SCGI connector for Ruby on Rails before I worked on Mongrel. I eventually stopped working on it since it was kind of pointless, but Jeremy Evans has stepped up and offered to maintain it. He''s now the official maintainer and will be managing the SCGI project: http://rubyforge.org/projects/scgi/ If anyone is interested in helping out then let

Hi, all In my rails app I have a controller called Dashboard::MenusController with a namespace dashboard. I have a model Company too, where its has_many :menus So, I have the code above in my route.rb map.namespace (:dashboard) do |dashboard| dashboard.resources :companies, :has_many => :menus end With this route I can create a new menu by: dashboard/companies/1/

Given a field in database defined as "discount_rate numeric(3,1)" I found it not very usable for presenting it directly. For example, if there''s a value 5.00 it will render in <%= text_field ''model'', ''discount_rate %> as "0.5E1" which is not very friendly to user. All I do is that I write kind of proxy accessors (prefixing with

I use Apache to serve the static pages and let Mongrel handle Rails requests via mod_rewrite/proxy. Apache RewriteRule can set environment variable on the fly, and this is one of the features I used, set an env var based on domain name. I used to use SCGI Runner which was fine as the env var was passed to Rails via scgi protocol. I seems can''t find a way to set env var in Mongrel on

I have strange error that happens after couple of hours. Some instances start to respond on any request with status code 500. Log file unicorn.stderr.log gets populated with this error: app error: undefined method `each'' for nil:NilClass (NoMethodError) /usr/local/lib/ruby/gems/1.9.1/gems/rack-1.1.2/lib/rack/utils.rb:267:in `initialize''

Hi, I kept getting a very weird question about Mongrel (http://mongrel.rubyforge.org) and SCGI that I think really needs to be cleared up: ** Mongrel is not SCGI and will never need, use, require, or interact with SCGI (unless someone wants to write the handler for it). ** For some reason people have been under the impression that Mongrel actually uses or interacts with my other project SCGI

Hey everyone - I recently switched to using a Mac and have several different rails projects going and was getting tired of starting/stopping mongrels via the shell so wrote my first dashboard widget to do it for me. More details at the URL below... http://blog.pjkh.com/2006/12/20/mongrel-rails-dashboard-widget Hope those of you on OSX find it handy... feels good to finally give something

I''ve liked the scgi runner ever since it came out. I like the way it''scontrolled, the way it''s clusterable, and the fact that it runs onwin32 platforms so easily. Now it''s May 2006, and the scgi runner hasn''t changed since October,and now we have mongrel. I keep seeing hints of clustering in mongrel,as well. I just downloaded the win32 installer for

Hi, I''m just learning Ruby and Rails. I have developed a Rails application, but not using the creation scripts that come with the rails distribution. Consequently, no test scaffolding is available to me, and I''m trying to write my functional tests from scratch. I have what might be considered a standard plain old controller (dashboard_controller.rb) that I''m trying

Hello Everyone, Mongrel is getting closer and closer to being a rock solid release. My goal is to release 0.4 as "production ready" by Canada on Rails. Please report any problems or suggestions you have. There won''t be any major features or improvements just fixes and code reviews to repair any found bugs or security concerns. People interested in Mongrel should look at

Instant Rails 1.3 upgrades Ruby on Rails to its newly released version 1.1.2 and adds the native C MySQL/Ruby driver. There were no other changes over Instant Rails 1.1 ----------- Instant Rails is a one-stop Rails runtime solution containing Ruby, Rails, Apache, and MySQL, all preconfigured and ready to run. No installer, you simply drop it into the directory of your choice and run it. It does

Hi, I was having problem with disappearing sessions when storing them in memcache and when runnning as mongrel cluster in production environment. I''ve created a patch and it seems it''s now okay. A message to rails-core including the link to patch <http://dev.rubyonrails.org/ticket/9823> can be found in the group here:

It turns out the native C MySQL driver is causing segfaults (at least on Windows 2000), so this is a minor maintenance release that removes this driver. Rails will automatically use the pure Ruby driver, instead. If you already have Instant Rails 1.3 installed, you don''t need to download this, just delete the file: InstantRails\ruby\lib\ruby\site_ruby\1.8\i386-msvcrt\mysql.so There

This release of Mongrel is coming at you with lots of very little but important features and fixes. The big highlights are: * Initial beginning of the plugin support that will let people write their own handlers and other things for Mongrel. * Timeout now works again but couldn?t find an alternative to the buggy Timeout class. * SwitchTower friendly signal handling for

Hi, I have an application running on Apache SCGI (Win XP). Once I run it in production mode (scgi_ctrl config -S -e production ) I''m getting stack trace instead of HTTP status 500 (Application Error) and the error is logged production.log. The application works fine without SCGI. Your help is highly appreciated.... Thanx /* production.log */ # Logfile created on Thu Jan 04 16:35:43

I have a long running operation (more than a minute) that is running in a request. The operation completes according to the log and the log says that it returns http status 200. Sometimes an error message is written after the 200 log message (included at the end of this message). But the browser get a status 500 from the Apache server. We''re using Apache with SCGI on Windows doing

I have a problem with running Rails 0.13.1 with scgi_rails 0.4.3 and Apache. After running for some time (more than a day), the SCGI process stops with the following error (from scgi.log): -- [ERR][24189] Collecting thread: Too many open files [ERR][24189] /usr/local/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/scgi_rails-0.4.3/lib/scgi.rb:188:in `accept''

Hello everyone, Mongrel now has plugins that are based entirely on RubyGems. This feature was so slick that I decided to bust it out into a separate project called GemPlugin (more on that later). What the new plugin system does is makes it so that people can distribute Mongrel plugins as just plain gems, and mongrel will load them on the fly if people install them. There''s no
