Hi all, I''m trying to create a worker to send a mail to all the users in my db. Right now I''m doing the tests, this is the code in my worker (Masivo is the ActionMailer subclass): def do_work(args) @progress = 0 @logger.info("MAILER: starting job") records = Record.find(:all) total = records.size records.each_with_index do |record, idx|

I have a really long series of queries (import from other database*) that takes about 2 or 3 minutes. I wanted to spawn a thread and put the job there, but there seems to be some problems with active record and threads: (this is what I found after googling) Thread.abort_on_exception = true => true 100.times do Thread.new do Client.find(:first) end end this throws an exception... So

Hi all, I need to install cerberus inside my rails app''s public directory... I agree that the best method would be to put the whole php app in it''s own subdomain, but for now (i''m just testing) that''s not possible...

The subject pretty much says it all: I can''t?get observe_field to take a variable for a field name I''ve tried: <%= observe_field(var_name, ... <%= observe_field("#{var_name}", ... <%= observe_field(:"#{var_name}", ... No luck. Am I missing something? Thanks, : ) Jason -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.

I have a form where I dynamically add form elements based on user input. An example is that when a user selects a "server" from a select box I add (via AJAX calls back to server) a "type" select box pre-populated with valid choices for that server. I do this by using observe_field on the "server" field and update a div on the page with the new "type"

Hi, I need to observe a set of radio buttons but am having great trouble.

I am using observe_field on a number of multi-selects and checkbox form elements whose values would normally come in as arrays on a normal (non-Ajax) form post. I understand that by using the :with => ''name'' I will get name=value in the request.raw_post however if the field I am submitting has mutliple values and the name is of the form ''name[]'', I get

I''m sure this is a simple problem, but I''ve been working on it for a couple days and can''t seem to figure out the correct way to structure my observe_field call.
