Cleanup at session expiration
I''m going to explicitly time out sessions if they''re idle more than X minutes. Like online banking sites do.
How do I set things up so that, when a session expires, a set of database records and a set of files that may have been created (which are identified via a seperate set of database records) are deleted just before the session data?
TIA,
Bill

Rails, FCGI, Dreamhost
Is anybody getting acceptable performance with a Rails application on
Dreamhost? By this, I mean response times no greater than 3 seconds, and
no large numbers of FCGI processes that you have to kill manually.
If so, how?
I''ve ended up running a constant ping script (once every ten minutes),
and still have to kill some number of excess dispatch.fcgi processes
every day.

ActionMailer -- anybody ever see this?
I''ve got a mailer that works -- about every other time. Authentication
fails the other half of the time. There doesn''t seem to be any
particular pattern to it -- work once, fail once, work three times, fail
twice, ....
For example, here''s one attempt from my development.log:

Checking if a directory is empty using File
Hi,
I have one minor issue. I''m trying to check whether a directory is empty
given some path to the directory.
My code does the following:
if(File.directory?(dirpath)) # dirpath = public/images/1
if(File.zero?(dirpath))
FileUtils.rm_rf(dirpath)
end
end
The problem is, while testing this, if I put a file in the directory and run
the above code, it still ends up deleting the

Redirects and keeping flash
My code that acts if a session has timed out looks like this:
reset_session
session[:expires_at] = nil
# TODO - This flash is never shown, because we redirect maybe?
flash[:error] = ''Your session has timed out, please login to
continue.''
# An attempt to make flash stick around, not working
flash.keep

Can I peek at all "active sessions"?
My users need to login to run the app I''m building. I''d like to give
them an "Other users currently active:" piece of information. I could
track it myself in the database based on login/logout, but that doesn''t
really count for people just leaving the computer logged in and never
coming back. Does Rails have an API for me to monitor sessions and take

flash not shown
I am using the following code (inspired by one of the books) to check if
the user''s session should have timed out.
# Check to see if the user has been inactive for longer than the
# expiry period. If they have, reset the session.
def check_timeout
if session[:expires_at] != nil
@time_left = (session[:expires_at] - Time.now).to_i

capistrano and Dreamhost issue
Hi,
i''m striving to capistranize a foo app on DH.
Everything is hosted on DH to simplify a bit :
- svn repository (http access)
- the application
- the DB
I used the recipe of Jamis Buck modified by Geoffrey Grosenbach which
you can find here : http://nubyonrails.com/pages/shovel_dreamhost
I did the least modifications possible. As recommended.

catch all error for incorrect urls etc
Hi,
I am changing a very standard old school website to rails. When I make
the change to rails, all of the old urls will not be valid. If a
person has a bookmark to an old web page I would like them to be
directed to the front page of the new website www.domain.com. How do I
do this? Do I do something in routes.rb?
Thanks,

A couple of ferret 0.9.4 exceptions
Hi Dave,
I am using ferret at my site http://gifthat.com and I just had a few
exceptions pop up. I don''t have a way to reproduce them, but my site
just was listed on lifehacker.com and these issues have popped up
under multiple concurrent users (only twice though which I think isn''t
too bad). I am using two lighttpd instances both with read/write
access to the index:

pagination in acts_as_ferret
I''m just wondering where I would put the pagination for search results
when using "acts_as_ferret".
At the moment my search code is..

unless @query.blank?
@results = Tutorial.find_by_contents @query

Routing via function
I have a route that depends on a username being passed in the URL, such as:
map.connect '':username'', :controller => ''user'', :action => ''show''
Is there a way to perform a lookup of the username before matching on
this route?
I am hoping to be able to do something like this (completely made up):

All,
Version 1.0.8 of the salted hash login generator is available.
This contains a few minor bug fixes with the generator plus some
README clarifications. If you are successfully running with the code

How do I reset rails in production mode on DreamHost?
Hello!
I am testing rails on DreamHost.
I believe it''s running on apache.
In development mode, it ran very slowly.
So I changed it into production mode and switched to fcgi.
It''s very fast now.
But the problem is that if I add actions to a controller, it''s not
applied.
I know that in production mode, I need to restart web server.
But I don''t control the web

Installing Ferret locally on TextDrive
I would like to give the 0.9.0 version of Ferret a try on my
application hosted on TextDrive. I am currently running on the 0.3.2
version there.
Does anyone have any tips on installing it locally there? I know just
enough about Ruby gems to get by... but I am thinking it could be as
easy as passing a -i flag to specify the install location for ferret.
Then, the only thing I am not sure about

monitor fcgi?
Im trying to get a new app up on dreamhost. What fun :/
Id like to try out the ''frao_handler'' which just keeps dreamhost from
automatically killing my fcgi processes. But Im also worried about
things getting out of hand. I seem to remember that captures in views
can cause problems with fcgi (I might just be making that up????), and I
do have few in my app. And well Im

CSS not applied using apache
Hi all,
I have recently configured rails to run under apache. I''ve tried adding
a stylesheet using the stylesheet_link_tag function, however when I load
the page I do not see the affects of the stylesheet. The URL to the
stylesheet looks correct when viewing the page''s source. Has anyone
else seen this problem?
Thanks for your help,
