Hi, I''m currently learning Ruby on Rails using "Agile Web Development with Rails." I am using RadRails as my development environment. Everything has been going along well, until the end of chapter 7. Just before the end of the chapter, we set up our store pages so that they can be styled with the depot.css stylesheet. This is where I run into my problem. The stylesheet

Hi, I am learning Radrails and want to tie the web project all together by displaying 3 tables linked together. I want to select one item from the main table, and then link to the other two tables. they will be linked by the key of the first table. It seems that I should create a rhtml in a main table or should I just copy the list.rhtml created by the generator scaffold? I might not make any

Hi Working through the tut material in teh PP book (agile dev with rails) on a laptop running winxp. Creating the "admin" application, things generally work great. Except: at teh end of chapter 6, when we update teh css to improve the look of the page - I copy the new scaffold.css into my working directory, but webrick keeps serving the old css, even after a restart.

Hello, I''m a newbie to Ruby on Rails and like many others, I have been working through the depot application in the Agile Web Development book. I was wondering if anyone had enhanced the depot application to include the upload of images for each product? The following describes the sort of thing that I have been asked to produce for a client, so apologies if the information is not

Yesterday, I was having a problem with db:migrate. I was told my version of rails was too old, and I needed to install it from gems instead of the version in my version of Ubuntu. Since then, I''ve done that, and I built ruby 1.8.4 from source and installed it. The installation was to /usr/local/bin. As my distribution had put ruby 1.8.3 in /usr/bin, I renamed that and put a link to

I''m going through the ''Depot'' project in "Agile Web Development with Rails". I just made the 003_add_test_data.rb file and when I do a "rake db:migrate", I get this error and I can''t figure out what is wrong: rake aborted! ./db/migrate//003_add_test_data.rb:5: parse error, unexpected tSYMBEG 5. :description => (and the

Radrails created a field for date <%= product.date_available.strftime("%y-%m-%d") %> What does this mean? Should the definition be date or datetime?

People, I''m looking at the migrate example on p 74 of the rails2.pdf It''s a simple example of using a migration to add a column to the products table. Here is a copy of the migration file named 002_add_price.rb after I generated and then edited it: class AddPrice < ActiveRecord::Migration def self.up add_column :products, :price, :decimal, :precision => 8, :scale

Hi all, I just begun with RoR and going through the Agile development w Rails depot example ATM. I did everything according to the book (i believe), and after 3 hours of googling, reading docs, making sure i did everything correctly i can not make the validate_presence_of() to work - at least not as it looks in the book. My Product model looks like: class Product < ActiveRecord::Base

I''m following along with the depot example in ''Agile Web Development'' and ran into a problem with Scaffold. I changed the MySQL table structure to add a few columns directly and also tried the migrate script to change the database after I got the initial scaffolding to work. However, I can''t seem to get the new columns to show up and am stumped as to how I can

Appreciate any help - I am working through Agile web development (4.0) and am stuck on the deployment using phusion passenger. I get this: "Forbidden You don''t have permission to access / on this server." when I put depot.yourhost.com in the browser. I have been through various web searches and for file permissions and suggestions to change the <Files> container.

Hello there, I am basically a J2EE refugee fascinated with Rails. I have been using the Spring framework (a lightweight J2EE java framework with some special characteristics) but I am so impressed with RoR that I am porting over many applications. In order to "dive into Rails", of course the second thing to do was get myself an IDE, and since I''ve been using Eclipse for the

I successfully got rake appdoc to work on the depot application (after manually applying the patch for rake 0.70). Everything appears to generate fine, but I can''t pull up the documentation in my browser. I''ve tried: http://localhost:3000/doc/app/ http://localhost:3000/doc/app/index.html I always get: Recognition failed for "/doc/app/" with

This is kind of frustrating (but no doubt helpful in the long run) that after following along and coding , and d/l the code the same error is appearing. For those who are familiar with the depot app, I''ve run into a problem after fixing the cart to reflect quanitites. I worked through the intended error messages but now have this appearing: SyntaxError in StoreController#add_to_cart

A couple of questions about the above: 1. In their respective man pages, both refer to "NTFS alternate data streams?, however they are not limited to just NTFS ADS are they? Other file systems may also use ADS (such as Mac OS?s various fs) 2. What is the essential differences and similarities between the two? From the man pages it appears that: - xattr has default prefix (which can be

Hi, I''m new with RoR. I''m trying to do a master-detail CRUD form, using generate scaffold. The problem I''m facing is that I have to keep the parent id through the detail view all the time by hand. Is there any example or way to see how to do it properly? Thanks. Fernando. PS: For further information, I have a Task and the Tasks have Items, so when I want to add an

I'll try to be as clear as possible with what I need to do and what I need. I have a depot server with HP depots that I need to replicate. The only part I need help with is setting up Rsync to use SSH to replicate the data from system a and everything under /depot to system b /depot. Basically just copy directory /depot from one box to the other using SSH. I'll need this to be ran

Sorry to be such a pest but I am trying to learn Ruby, Rails and RSpec all at one go and it is a bit overwhelming. I have previously completed the depot tutorial in the Agile Web Dev with rails book and now I am trying do do it again using RSpec. What I would like to know now is why I am getting a rake failure error at the end of every spec:models run. Is this the expected behaviour when a test

Hi: I''m running RoR 1.1 I''m going through the Agile book Depot example and I want to generate my next migration file so i''m typing ./script/generate migration depot I was sort of expecting to get the file 002_depot.rb .. instead i''m being informed that there already exists a migration named depot..and no new file is generated.. should I be using a new
