well, so File upload seems to be only working under mongrel. I have not tried it, but Camping crash extracting the request parameters on both CGI and FastCGI. I''m looking at rails code for inspiration, but it''s a bit outside of my knowledge..... not sure what to do with a FCGI::Stream object ..... this is what rails do for CGI, I''m not sure if it works the same for

I am trying to call a wsdl web service running on .net server with a ruby client.

Hi One of our customers has a Filemaker database which needs to be accessed for some data. Using the Web Companion, I can query the database for an XML version of the data. I need to be able to push this data into an array of hashes, so I can access it in a more convenient way. Filemaker is able to provide me with 2 XML formats (DSO-XML and FMP-XML): *********** DSO-XML ***********

Hi, I am trying to implement password-reset functionality. I have an email sent out to a user when they request a password. The URL in the email contains a cgi param, of which is a SHA 256 hex digest. The user clicks on that link and the page is opened in a separate window, when the user enters in their password. When I hit submit, I get the following error, anyone run into this error before?

Hi, I''ve started getting an error I can''t debug. The error doesn''t generate anything in my development log. A breakpoint set right at the beggining of the controller method does not get triggered. It happens on a form submission. I can make changes to the object model from with the console, but not on this form submission. I thought maybe it was routing, because I have

I''ve seen a number of ways to use AR outside of rails, and am wondering what other think is the best approach for my particular application. The application is in it''s own module namespace. To use it within rails you just require it in application.rb and instantiate a class to call methods on. It''s also well suited to be used from other various applications though.

Hi! I''m new with Ruby On Rails, so I don''t really know how I can get this fixed. As a result of a program, I''ve got +/- 20 XML files, and I would like to import them to my sqlite3 database. Each XML-file having it''s own table. Now I think I need to read the xml-files first and process them later. I''ve done some research and found REXML, but I

Not really a solution, but this has to be a classic example of PHP- programmer-bass-ackwardness. They''re already writing to an extensible serialization format (XML) but then just whack language-specific serialized data in instead. That''s right up there with the HTTP-over- SOAP-over-HTTP stuff I''ve seen floating around... --Matt Jones On Sep 24, 9:14 am, Andy

Hi. Im quite new to this Rails thing, but it seems like a good product so why not try it out whit a little prototype i need to build.

Hi rails people, I have been experiencing a problem lately with my rails app. I send xml documents to a rails server through POST requests from a curl client. The request contains an XML document that has been properly escaped using entity escapement rules from the XML definition: each escaped entity is replaced by "&nn;". The documents POST to the server just fine unless the

Hi -- I''ve got a very strange error. I have an action called ''commit_input'' on a controller called ''SiteVisitController''. This definately exists, and is called from the functional test for it, and passes fine. My problem is with the form that is supposed to call this action. The form tag is: <%=

Hi, After following the excellent tutorials in the Agile Web Development with Rails book, I was able to get my webservice working pretty much perfectly :) I can access it via SOAP and XML-RPC and look at service.wsdl to find the API. What I can''t do however is get the API for the XML-RPC call. It fails with : Internal protocol error: NilClass is not a valid input stream. It must

Hi All, I''m trying to return XML from a Rails view of an object I built up using Builder::XmlMarkup and I find an annoying side effect is that I get an extra <to_xml/> or <to_s/> element back which makes REXML hiccup thinking I''m adding a recond root element when I try to parse the return. How can I return the XML without this last element? Thanks, Vince

Got a question hopefully someone can answer - I am working on functionality to match on certain nodes of a largish (65mb) xml file. I implemented this with REXML and was 2 minutes and counting before I killed the process. After this, I just opened the console and loaded the file into a string and did a regex search for my data -- the result was almost instantaneous. The question is, if I can get
