Hi, I think there is still a major vulnerability exists in the latest Rails 1.1.5. The problem is in the routing.rb file and safe_load_paths method. Because of the erroneous regexp it is possible to perform a DOS attack on any rails application. To reproduce: 1. start your application 2. use this url: http://localhost:3000/debug Routing module will load standard debug.rb script which stops a

I''m running unicorn and unicorn-rails 0.96.1 and the latest Rails 3 beta gem. ?Firing up unicorn_rails spews "RAILS_ENV not defined by config/boot". ?I know this is likely a result of RAILS_ROOT being deprecated?in Rails 3 but I can''t seem to config my way around it.

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

Any advice?
