I followed hivelogic article on how to install Ror and Lighttpd on Mac OS. http://hivelogic.com/articles/2005/12/01/ruby_rails_lighttpd_mysql_tiger But I''m not sure I got Lighttpd in the right place. If I do "which lighttpd" and "lighttpd -v" I get answers from the terminal: /usr/local/sbin/lighttpd lighttpd-1.4.11 - a light and fast webserver But I

Hi all, I''m a web designer/-developer. I found Ruby and Ruby on Rails, and as I can understand (for now) this is what I''ve been looking for. I''m really exited about this. Prior to this I''ve used Lasso and PHP. But a few questions (sitting on Mac OS 10.4.6). I tried to install according to this:

In an migration file there is one up and one down method. Below is from Agile Web Development with Rails: class CreateOrderHistories < ActiveRecord::Migration def self.up create_table :order_histories do |t| t.column :order_id, :integer, :null => false t.column :created_at, :timestamp t.column :notes, :text end end def self.down drop_table :order_histories end end Why is there a drop

Can I use the table name "adm_users" (mysql)? Will that give the model name "adm_user"? Or should it be "admusers" and "admuser"? -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.

Are there any other tutorial than "Agile Web Development with Rails" that you can suggest? So far I can''t say that RoR has been easy to learn. :-) -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.

In http://www.aidanf.net/rails_user_authentication_tutorial there is the string/method protected in the model. What does it do? Can''t find that in http://api.rubyonrails.org/. -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.

This is so frustrating. Is RoR that easy to learn or is it hype or is it just me? I wonder how many newbies like me are surfing the docs trying to get a clue of the basics. Every tutorial I find is much the same, and seems to skip the fundmental parts. How should you understand the Ruby API http://api.rubyonrails.org/? What is < ActionController::Base? Can''t I set a cookie under

Maybe this should apply to Ruby forums directly, but I''ll try here. I understand the concept of classes and subclasses thanks to the excellent "Programming Ruby - The Pragmatic Programmer''s Guide". However, I don''t understand what :: signify in terms of inheritance, parent and child in e.g. ActionController::Base -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.

I installed lighttpd from ports on my FreeBSD-5 system last night, wanting to play with that instead of WEBrick for development work. I installed it, and ran script/server, and got this: [minter@carlton discostu]$ script/server => Booting lighttpd (use ''script/server webrick'' to force WEBrick) => Rails application started on http://0.0.0.0:3000 => Call with -d to

I have an existing rails application on lighttpd and I am trrying to upgrade to mongrel for the enhanced scalability it offers. I am running mongrel 1.1.1, rails 1.2.5, lighttpd 1.4.13 and ruby 1.8.5 Everything is working great except request.remote_ip returns 127.0.0.1 or 192.168.0.102 (the internal network address of the server running lighty). I''ve seen some older posts about

Hi, I tried to install lighttpd in CentOS 5.2, but yum list lighttpd returned an error of "no matching packages to list". Should it be installed from source tarball? Thank you. Kind Regards, Jim

I just went thru the hivelogic article to get everything installed on my new mac. I then decided to run thru the ADC Rails article. In the article it says to run ''script/server'' which will start lighttpd if installed or webrick if not. When I do it, I get webrick not lighttpd. I followed the hivelogic article word for word and everything else seems to be working fine. Is

Hi everyone, When I want something to start at boot, I put it into /etc/rc*. The service will start as root, though. How do I make it start as a particular user? I''m worried about the machine going down and me not being around to pick my app back up when it does. I think this would also help my SwitchTower issue of having 8 fastcgi processes running for the app. 4 started by
