In my app. my user needs to select a file and upload it...however I only want him to upload certain information from that file. I have written code to parse only string tables from that file.

Hi all, (I''m new with RoR) I''m using a migratio to import data into a database but nothing is being happens.

I''m using backgroundrb for session management and deletion of visitor-entered information when a session is abandoned. The visitor can either click a button to end their session and remove their data, or backgroundrb will do it for them after 5 minutes of inactivity. Everything''s working fine, I think. If the visitor explicitly logs out, then when the worker checks for their

Hello backgroundrb-devel my name is Teeranit Ruangdet. I''m fairly new to Ruby on Rails so please bear with me here.

After hearing so much about RoR over the last few months, I finally decided to give it a try. I decided to follow the "Rolling with Ruby on Rails" article on ONLamp.com to get up and running. Unfortunately, since that fateful decision, I have run into nothing but obstacles. First, I downloaded and installed Ruby. That was my last success event. Then, I typed "gem install

I can''t even get Rails installed in Windows XP. I follow the directions in "Agile Web Development With Rails", I download Ruby, then RubyGems, and I install those, and I then type the command that came right out of the book. C:\ruby>gem install rails --include-dependencies and it doesn''t even work: C:\ruby>"C:\ruby\bin\ruby.exe"

Hi, I have installed InstantRails 1.0 Final on Win XP (Home SP2) and Win 2K 2000. I was able to get the two apps (cookbook, typo) work fine with Webrick but not with SCGI server.

Hi all - I have a need to have my models write to one database and read from another. From what I''ve read, Rails doesn''t do this out of the box. I came up with something that does work, but I''m wondering if there is something I''m missing in the code below that''s going to bite me, such as establish_connection creating a huge number of objects as

I have a situation where I''d like to perform some actions when a node is removed from a class.

When disabled I''d like to clean up the ssh keys for security reasons. This brings up the broader
