Hi, On OS X (10.4.6), Rails 1.1.2... I tried doing a sudo gem update, and this is the result I''m getting: Upgrading installed gems...

Hi, I''ve got a strange problem. I had initially installed Rails using Tony Arnold''s package: <http://www.tonyarnold.com/articles/category/rails> and that worked fine. (on OS X, obviously). I then decided to reinstall using the instructions on the HiveLogic page, to get Ruby 1.8.4: <http://hivelogic.com/articles/2005/12/01/ruby_rails_lighttpd_mysql_tiger> That

Hello, I tried Cody Fauser RJS tutorial (http://www.codyfauser.com/articles/2005/11/20/rails-rjs-templates) on my railsplayground dev site and got it to work when using Firefox, but when I tried it on Safari, nothing happens. Then I tried this tutorial - http://rewrite.rickbradley.com/articles/2006/02/06/rjs-templates Similarly, it works fine on Firefox... but with Safari the list is not

Hi, Can someone point me to some info on how to access Rails models / ActiveRecord classes from a Ruby command line script? Say I have a plain text file that is put into some directory by an outside process, and I want to have a Ruby script run, via a cron job, that can open and parse that data file. It would then delete all records in some lookup table in my database and load it with the data

Hi all. Got a stupid-simple question about associations. I have two models - school and course. There are a fixed number of schools (set up in the migration). Each course is assigned a school and a school will be associated with multiple courses... How do I set up the associations? Do (can) I have School :has_one :course and Course :has_many :schools? Does the schools table then get a course_id

Hi all, I was just made aware of this: <http://www.codeigniter.com> I wonder where the inspiration comes from? Lots of very similar concepts there ;) I''ve only watched the intro movie so far, but very interesting. jt

So I am now able to set/upload an image to my app using file_column, with a little bit of a change to the code. I can change the image using an Edit page, but I''m trying to figure out what to do if the user wants to remove the image. I tried adding a Remove Image link in my list, but I''m not sure what to do in the remove_image method in my controller. I tried setting the

Has anyone successfully integrated (embedded) vbulletin into a rails app? I would be curious to see if/how this worked. RForum still seems quite beta so I am looking for something a little more tried and true. thanks adam

Hi, I''m starting to build a simple (?!) FAQ system, and I''d like some advice on setting up the model relationships. I was going to go with a simple system of a Category table and a FAQ table (holding questions and answers) - where one FAQ belongs to one category. That''s all nice - a simple has_many / belongs_to relationship. Then I decided to add another level - Area.

Hi, I''m working on an app - my first Rails - and am looking for some suggestions on the best way (or good way) to set up my models / DB. In general there are teams and matches; a team will participate in multiple matches, and in each match there will be 6 teams - 3 vs. 3. I''m going to want to be able, for a particular team, pull up all matches for that team, to display a

Hi, Rails - newbie here.. I''m setting up an app and am trying to use file_column to upload a picture with an item and I''m running into several problems. (Background: I''m running Locomotive Rails under OS X 10.4.4, and using Safari) I followed the directions to add the necessary items, then found out that I had to add the item to make the form tag be a multipart

Hi, I''ve got my little app working pretty well. I''m using pretty much the model and table layout from my previous thread, as suggested by Bill Katz: <http://www.ruby-forum.com/topic/52506#26260> I have the Create page working and a delete Match page working, which along with the appropriate record in the Matches table, removes the linked items in the competitions table.

Hi again... One more item.. the file_column plugin uses a tmp directory inside the /public directory to store a temporary uploaded item. But it looks like this folder is just going to grow and grow. Is there some way to clear this out or not cause this to happen? Thanks once again! -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.

Hi, I''ve got a little Rails app, and I wanted to generate a report from some data. I did it one way, but it didn''t seem quite "Rails". I created two methods in a controller, one called "report" that was empty: def report end that would just then display the report.rhtml page. This page contained a form tag with a text box and a submit button. This form

I just tried setting up a simple Rails app, after updating to the 1.1RC1 version of Rails. Generating a simple scaffold worked fine, and WEBrick started fine with script/server. I then went to the http://localhost:3000 page and clicked on the "About your application''s environment" link, and an error was displayed: NoMethodError in Rails/info#properties private method

I have tried various mail clients to read the Rails mailing list for the past 12 months. As the list volume grew, it became utterly impossible to browse through the new messages and very hard to locate the useful gems I had previously found. After subscribing to a few more lists, I realized that there had to be a better way. I could not find anything to meet my needs, so I designed

I have a simple case statement in one of my views. This works fine on my windows machine. Move to the mac and I get: "parse error, unexpected tIDENTIFIER, expecting kWHEN". I have not changed anything but cannot resolve the issue. my view has this in it (simplified for test) <% case controller.controller_name -%> <% when "accounts" -%> <h3>worked
