Is there any particular distro that seems to be most used among RoR developers on Linux? Any that might provide better support somehow for development of RoR apps? -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.

Hello, I need some guidance. I have a need to: a) Login, validating against a "system-level" user database - no big deal, then b) Depending upon the login, select a customer database for processing. For instance, assume that my login profile lists an area of interest: cars, motorcycles or boats. Each of these has a database, with identical table formats. If my login shows my area of

What is the best way to implement a ''Down for Maintenance'' page across your Rails app? Ideally I would like to have a button in my admin section that toggles the display of a ''currently under maintenance'' page to every public request to the app (possibly with some dynamic content like estimated down-time) except for: - - requests from a specified IP

I just wanted to announce my latest plugin: LegacyInterop The 5 second video, minus the video, looks like this: $ ./script/plugin install svn://lirp.rubyforge.org/var/svn/lirp/trunk/legacy_interop $ echo LegacyInterop.act_as_dotnet >> config/environment.rb Done! Agile! Pragmatic! The plugin includes support for a large number of legacy systems, all using the "act_as" pattern.

I want to deploy RoR site''s (Intranet) for small offices/businesses that will get light traffic (estimating at max about 40 hits per minute at peak times). Lots of AJAX going on more than anything (update checks to the DB - Postgresql). I''d rather not use Lighttd, Apache, etc. as I want to have a streamlined install that is very easy for the end users. The catch is I

I've produced a custom rpm for kdevelop 3.0.1. However, yum reinstalls the original CentOS rpm when I do 'yum update'. Yum shows the following for kdevelop: >yum list kdevelop -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- kdevelop i386 8:2.1.5-12.1 base Looking in Installed Packages: Name

I'm still struggling with this. I was hoping to boot a centos 6.6 livecd to see if this is specific to my installation or a general problem with my hardware. I can't find a 6.6 livecd on any of the several mirrors I've checked or on the centos vault. Does anyone know if one is available somewhere. Other ideas are welcome too.

With Rails 1.1 the output_compression[1] plugin was broken. Once I upgraded to 1.1, I had to tweak it a bit to make it work. Mainly it''s removing the code dealing with component requests, as that''s part of rails now, and changing one function call. Get the modified output_compression.rb file from http://devblog.famundo.com/output_compression.rb and give it a try. It''s

Umm... is there any rational reason to only announce the CentOS-5.3 Live CD on May 27, when it was available since May 19, and Patrice has updated the Release Notes on the same May 19? The CD date is indeed 19-May-2009 02:50 and I've found it on May 21 on all the mirrors I've checked. I was persuaded that the only 5.3 LiveCD available was from ScientificLinux, and I've checked with

Good afternoon, I''ve two quick questions for the Ruby/Rails community. 1) Do you use Linux for Ruby or Rails development? 2) If you use Linux, which distro do you normally use to develop? Thank you for your input. :-) -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.

Hi -- (First time posting to the list...) I''m trying out Rails on my Mac (OS X Panther, 1.6 G5). It seems... kinda slow? I''ve even run it with FastCGI and the response time is still painfully slow. Is this just me? Is mod_ruby any better than FastCGI? Or is it rails? Thanks in advance! -- joshua

I''m trying to create a modules based system where my controllers are all under modules. So the structure looks something like: app/ controllers/ message/ news_controller.rb email_controller.rb library books_controller.rb pictures_controller.rb home_page_controller.rb Each of those controller has

Hi, After some months of configuring and testing a small server, think that would be nice to make a full server restore-point image in order to recover it if something goes wrong in the future, just restoring the image back and not making the full install and configure process all over again. The server uses Logical Volumes. I was thinking on using the CentOS LiveCD and then use dd command to

Hi guys, I have started preparing a library of PV-HVM templates for use on Xen 4.X+ and PVOPS dom0. This was brought up late last year as something that would make Xen alot easier for beginners to try. They are also great for testing - I will be setting up some stuff to do automatic testing of distro kernel compatibility against xen-unstable. Mirror page is here:

Postgres database. I have a categories table, with two columns id, and name. I have a recipes table, with a category_ids column. I want each recipe to belong to one or more category. in recipe_controller.rb I have this: def create @recipe = Recipe.new( @params[''recipe''] ) @recipe.category_ids = @params[''recipe''][''category_ids''].map{

So, I''m trying to write a nice bit of regex to handle finding anchor tags in a bit of html. This is what I''ve got.... /<[aA][^>]*>[^<]*<\/[aA]>/ I''m planning on using this with a gsub!.

I am getting some larger hard drives and will migrate my intranet application onto the new hard drives. I am using CentOS 4. The current setup uses one small boot volume (ext2) and the rest is partitioned into one big LVM. Does it make sense to partition /var/lib/pgsql separately?

Wondering what the best process would be to create livecds using the newer version of syslinux. Currently my G4L project has just been upgraded to syslinux 5.10 and works fine with regular 32 and 64 bit systems using the 32bit kernels, but have seen comments about EFI and somethings about 32bit only working with 32bit and 64bit with 64bit? Since I average about 1,000 downloads per week, I

Friends- I am almost finished with a custom live cd called Rubuntu ;-) This is an ubuntu live cd variant that comes preloaded with ruby and rails developers in mind. I already have it working with all the basics but I was wondering what extras people would like to see on this distro. What editors with what configurations? What other tools do people really like for rails development on a
