similar to: User.new doesn´t capture all of the parameters

Hi I''m trying to use before_filter to allow access to a site. Only logged in users can view any object in the controller, but only users with a access_level higher than 2 can view specific objects. My code is: ----------------------------------------------------------- IN USER_CONTROLLER before_filter :login_required before_filter :access_granted, :only => [:destroy, :new , :edit]

In console, I am trying to create a User but the :account_id does not come in. Console just gives me back :account_id => nil. Obviously I''m trying to set it though. Silly console... But, I can set the account_id column in my controller like so: @user = User.new(params[:user]) @user.account_id = account.id @user.save Here''s what I give to the controller: User.create :name

Hi there, I?m having difficulties reading the content of some rows in my database. Tried to use some of the code at page 221 in the pickaxe, but didn?t make it work. The SQL query works fine directly against the database. mysql> select id, count, company from users where name = "martin"; +----+-------+------------+ | id | count | company | +----+-------+------------+ | 1 |

(I posted this as a bug in GitHub (https://github.com/rails/rails/issues/7018), but then someone there told me I should post it here, so here it is.) If you set attr_accessible on some properties in an ActiveRecord-descended class, and then attr_protected on others - the class becomes ''default-open'' - if any properties are missed or added later, they will be accessible by

Apologies first, because I need to ramp up on Ruby and coding Ruby in Rails, however it''s my 3rd day with this beast :) so I''m asking : When I added protected methods to the model before it was like: protected method.................... end Would this be a valid way to write a protected method as well ?: attr_protected :column1, :column2 Perhaps this particular call

Great job on SWAT. I'm a hard-core UNIX guy, and I like my vi and whatnot. But it's nice to see a functional web interface. It could use some more work--but great job so far! Anyway, I found a core-dump-causing-bug. I was curious as to whether or not swat limited addition of passwords to the smbpasswd file by the users that exist in the system's /etc/passwd file.

I have a User model that is mapped to a table users with the following fields: username, email_address, password and join_dt. Following pretty closely to the login section in the Agile Web Development with

This is kind of a two part question. Question One: I want to be sure that an Order model is protecting sensitive attributes from mass assignment. The example looks like this: describe Order do it "should protect total attribute from mass assignment" do @order = Order.new(:total => 0.05) @order.total.should_not == 0.05 end end And the code to implement it: class Order

Hi, This does not seem to be covered anywhere. Since base class extends ActiveRecord with a table that has fields for all heirs, would that mean that any heir class can access any of those attributes, including ones that belong to other heirs? Or I am missing something? -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.

I have an error I don''t know how to debug. I am adding the login suport in Depot (the example in the RoR book) and LoginController#add_user throws ActiveRecord::StatementInvalid in an innocent /login/add_user GET request. The trace goes down to a call to SQLiteAdapter#table_structure, and the source code suggests what''s happening is that "PRAGMA
