Hi there, I''m new to rails and I''ve been successful tinkering around but am miffed by the process of trying to connect to my mail server to receive email for ActiveMailer parsing. I''m hosted on TextDrive and have read the following article on the RubyonRails wiki: http://wiki.rubyonrails.com/rails/pages/HowToReceiveEmailsWithActionMailer. I want to

Hi, everyone! I have been recently hit by ImageMagick/Rmagick memory leak issues. I know I can lesson the problem by manually starting up GC each time I use Rmagick library but ImageMagick seems to use way too much memory nevertheless. (on shared hosting setup anyway) Is there a decent replacement for ImageMagick library? I used to think ImageMagick was quite efficient because its

Hi, does anybody know if TMail supports nested multipart messages? I read a changelog that indicates so (http://dev.rubyonrails.org/svn/rails/trunk/actionmailer/CHANGELOG), but I haven''t been able to get it working so far. Maybe I am doing something wrong here? I attached the sample mail. Here is the code to parse it: require File.dirname(__FILE__) +

Hi, As I understand, composite primary keys aren''t supported in ActiveRecord yet. May I ask if there are plans for this feature? Better yet, if this feature is under development, how''s the progress going? I''m not trying to use legacy databases. I tend to think that using multiple integer column id''s (composite primary key) are often natural way to

Hi everyone, If I save some object in session and then restart the server, I get the following error unless I restart my web browser (or delete session files): Session contains objects whose class definition isn''t available. Remember to require the classes for all objects kept in the session. (Original exception: uninitialized constant TZInfo [NameError]) I know what the problem

Hi Dave, I''ve been getting some segment faults while running my tests using 0.10.14 gem so I decided to package the gem locally to add -dH and generate core dumps for you. So I followed instructions here http://ferret.davebalmain.com/trac/wiki/DownloadCurrent and first off ran the tests. I''m getting the following failures. (see this pastie http://pastie.caboo.se/34790). I

I''m trying to get substring from a utf-8 encoded string. (say, first 50 characters of the string) String#[0..49] would give me the first 50 bytes not 50 characters.. I know there is jcode library, but it only let you count number of characters in utf-8 string. unicode gem doesn''t seem to help much. unicode_hacks gem seem to solve the problem, but it also seems to

Hi, I''ve modified the latest acts_as_ferret code (version 0.3.0) to integrate with the Globalize (http://www.globalize-rails.org/globalize/) plugin. Essentially, I''ve added the ability to use a separate index per locale (It basically adds the language code as a suffix to the index and switches between indexes when the active locale changes). Since this introduces an optional

Hi list I''ve got a bit of a philosophical question. After just having discovered Selenium /Selenium IDE and the rails selenium plugin I''ve realized that it''s a whole lot easier to do functinoal testing than writing the traditional rails functional tests. However it implies that the development database consists of standardized test data (e.g the test & dev

Since this morning, the server at http://svn.devjavu.com/backgroundrb is requiring authorized access. Could you guys look into it?

Hi all, I would like to start a thread on RoR related issues on the new Intel version of Mac OS X. I have been using Apple''s new iMac Core Duo (which comes with Intel version of Mac OS X) for about a week now. Here''s my experience: Ruby 1.8.4: It compiles albeit with many warnings. Most warnings were about "differ in signedness". It seems to work okay

Friends- There is a new release of BackgrounDRb. This time it is a full fledged rails plugin with generators and rake tasks thanks to Saimon Moore. Thanks Saimon! You can read all about it here on my blog: http://brainspl.at/articles/2006/05/25/backgroundrb-new-release The newest feature besides the much cleaner way to install and control the drb server is caching. You can now use

When I run lighttpd 1.4.10 [on Mac OS X] the socket file is called ''fcgi.socket-'', versus ''fcgi.socket-0'' that I get under 1.4.8. Further, when the FCGI daemon quits, the file does not get deleted, and I cannot restart my Rails app until I manually remove it. Can anyone confirm before I raise a bug at lighttpd.net?

hello, if anybody could please help, I''m very late with this project and have been wasting a lot of time (days and days) getting past the learning curve to get the infrastructure up (fcgi, rmagick... and now svn integration). i come from dirty-php-scripting and am a newbie at all of this :P I have a rails app that I''ve been developing locally on os x. originally I

Hi! I''m running a Rails app on Apache/FCGI, with a single handler process on the server. At one point my application needs to FTP a bunch of files to a remote server. When it starts doing this, the server apparently freezes and doesn''t allow anyone else to do anything. Plus, after about twenty seconds, my nice status page vanishes from the browser, even though the

I have a website up and running on TextDrive with Rails/lighttpd/fcgi. Unfortunately, as my account is a "shared server" account on TxD, they kill processes that are hogging resources (quite understandably). Unfortunately for me, my Ruby fcgi processes load up rather ... large (just under 50mb). It doesn''t take much to push it to 50mb, at which point it gets killed. Does

Hi all, I have deployed my Ruby On Rails application on TextDrive. At first everything seamed to be fine. However, lately, response time of my application is incredible slow. Worse, lately there is also a lot of downtime. I have contacted their support desk, however, they do not respond (at all, or very, very late). Has anyone else these experiences with TextDrive? And if so, what did you do

Hey all, I''m using acts_as_ferret and globalize. I stumbled upon that post on google: http://osdir.com/ml/lang.ruby.ferret.general/2007-01/msg00068.html does anybody know if it''s included in the latest a_a_f or if it''s planed to be? I can''t seem to find anything about it. thanx in advance Pat

All, I''ve been looking switching hosting providers, and have been strongly considering TextDrive. Doing a little Googling turns up a fair number of complaints that seem to be centered around server performance, stability and uptime. Since I know a poorly written app can contribute to all of these, I thought I''d pose the question to all of you. Does anyone here host
