Hi, I''m new to programming and ruby and ROR, but I''m hoping to learn ruby to create custom scientific software. Mainly it involves measuring people''s reaction time to a series of words. I''m positive that this is possible using plain ruby on a computer (cause this is BASIC territory right?). But I want to create a ROR app that can do the same thing. My

Hi, I cannot get mongrel working on i686 debian sarge, whereas it works quite well on another ppc box under debian unstable. Instead I can use scgi_rails or webbrick without any problem. Here is the error: # mongrel_rails start /usr/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/mongrel-0.3.12.4/lib/mongrel/rails.rb:28: uninitialized constant Mongrel::HttpHandler (NameError) from

I'm not the most experience Linux user on the block so please excuse me if this is an easy fix. I noticed the other day while looking at my active services that Icecast has started more than once on my server. I'm wondering if someone would be able to look at my config and tell me why this is happening, or how to stop this from happening. My guess is that since I'm binding to an IP,

Ok, I''m pretty sure I''ve seen this done before. I have a fixture that isn''t named the same as the table I want to insert the stuff into. Whats the right way to go about this?! Google has failed me! :( -Nick

Hello, I'm trying to compile vmkit on a x86_64 linux box with gcc-4.1.2, but I'm running into troubles because of various problems with casts between pointers and integers. Is there anybody who succeeded in this task? Az I see, some of the problems can be fixed with an appropriate typedef/macro declaration, but in VMCore/JavaObject.cpp some lowlevel bitmanipulation is used, to mark

Hello, I know how to share sessions between subdomains in PHP. Can anyone please guide me as to how I can share sessions using Ruby? Where can I set the value of domain for which the cookie is set?

Hi! There''s something I don''t understand yet about static/private methods. I hope someone can explain... E.g.: class SayHello def hello(who) puts "Hello, " + who + "!" end def self.say(words) puts words end end hello = SayHello.new hello.hello "World" : Hello World! hello.say "hi" : Error SayHello.say

First of all, thanks to those who've set up R to work so smoothly with Miktex-- even a total Latex bunny like me got it to work instantly, so that for the first time I'm able to run my Rd files through the Latex side of RCMD CHECK. Now the question/buglet. One of my Rd files contains the following: \code{mlazy( <<objname1>>, <<objname2>>, <<etc>>)}

Hello, If anyone could help me out with this problem I''d appreciate it... I''m making a database of event bookings, I have an events table and a clients table. I''d like to include a form to create a new client in the form for creating a new event. This would update the parent form with the new client_id using AJAX methods (see previous e-mail) so you''d

Hi mongrel-herders, I''m just wondering what fellow railsers use to rotate their logs in an orderly fashion? I''d like to do something lightweight, i.e. (1) rename the logfile (2, optional) create a new empty logfile and (3) send a signal to each mongrel in the cluster and have them understand it''s time to reopen their log file handles. This is what I do with apache and

Hi, I am trying to do a multiple regression on the dataset "Hdma", available in the Ecdat package.

Hi Zsombor, Thanks for the patch! Unfortunately I can't apply it because the llvm API has moved from BinaryOperator::create to BinaryOperator::Create. Are you using svn head? Now on the x86_64 part. There has been very little work on porting vmkit on x86_64. If you're having compilation problems, I suppose it's in the garbage collector directory (GCMmap2). If you could make the

Hi. I am using Capistrano for my webapp and after deploy I need to restart memcached service. I am trying to do it with sudo "/etc/init.d/memcached restart" But it does not do it, even if memcached service existed - after deployment memcached service is off. I did some researching and added run "sleep 40" right after sudo command and found that service process existed

i realise that this goes against the basic idea of the MVC architecture, but i''ve found myself in a situation where i need to get information about the current user in a model & i''m not sure how to do it.

Dear all, Being an economics student, I am trying to put together a little tutorial/FAQ/... for those who have (more) background in econometrics rather than in statistics -- just as I have. I'v been looking for a hypothesis testing tool in R (just linear or also nonlinear) for model parameters, but could not find anything so far. I did find a similar but unanswered question in the archives,

Hi, I am new to R, but a fairly `old' user of Stata. I read posts asking about survey methods and large datasets in the archive, so I will not ask those questions again. But some still remain: - R seems to consume more memory given the same set of data, say if I have only a data frame defined, than Stata. Am I right if I think that this is because the object oriented nature of R and can
