I''m having tons of problems with fcgi on apache2. The app didn''t crash over the weekend when it wasn''t used. I ran it this morning and it was fine. It''s an inhouse app so it wasn''t used for 3 days over the weekend. It did however crash today. Does this sound like a bad fcgi setup or just a very buggy fcgi/Apache combo? Charlie Bowman

Hi all, Just wondering... Are there any plans to include i18n support in Rails anytime soon? I guess this is about the only feature I''m realy missing in Rails. Any thoughts?

Hi Railers, Does anyone have any guidance on setting up a simple way to handle product variations (e.g garment size/color)? Initially, I had thought that I would make a variation model which defined the extra bits, but it seems quite inflexible especially so if a store were to sell non-clothing items that also had variants of one flavor or another. product has_many variations title

Hi there, I would like some advice, not so much about how to use R, but about software that I need to complement R. I've rooted around in the FAQ's and done a few searches on this mailing list but haven't quite found the perspective I need. I am an experienced data analyst in my field (forest ecology and ecological monitoring) but new to R. I am a long time user of SPSS and have

Hello, I am trying to deal with a database table that contains a date in the form of the number of seconds since epoch. Data is inserted in this format by an existing script that I can''t change, so a schema change isn''t realistic. I would like to allow humans to view and edit this data in the form of an actual human-readable date. I figured a facade column would be the

Hello, does anyone know if there is a "best practice" how to implement wizard pages in RoR? I want to have multiple pages for entity editing and creation. Is there any rails plugin available? I think it would be nice to have a howto in the rails wiki or to have built-in wizard support in RoR. What do you think? Any suggestions how to implement this elegant? -- Oliver Paulus OpenPGP

Quick newb question about R relating to the line of code below: rawCool = read.zoo("cooling.txt", FUN = as.chron, format = "%m/%d/%Y %H:%M", sep = "\t", aggregate = function(x) tail(x, 1)) I'm wondering what the specifics are for the argument where it has "aggregate = function(x) tail(x, 1)". I understand that it removes the last row of

Please excuse my first couple of probably quite a few newb questions. Are there still probs with viewing chm files? If I browse to the chm file and just launch it seems fine until I try search for a subject. I search, find what I'm looking for, click it and the help file closes. If I use wine hh / winepath windows path it launches but if I click search I can't try the search, it's

A few days ago Craig Black made the suggestion in the D newsgroup, that someone creates a D <http://www.digitalmars.com/d/index.html> frontend for LLVM. Never having heard of LLVM in the past, I immediately got captured by its design when I've read the documentation. I was always scared by GCC - a great piece of software, but horribly bad documented, and in it's own way not very

I''m new to puppet so this might be a foolish question. I''m using Solaris 10, server is Sparc, my client is x86. I created a ''file chown'' manifest as a test ... /etc/puppet/manifests/classes/puppet.pp class puppet { file { "/etc/puppet.txt": owner => "root", group => "root",

Hello all - I'm just starting to play around w/ asterisk, and I've run into a seemingly simple problem that has really manged to frustrate me...

I just installed Asterisk on my server and I have Vonage softphone. I need my Asterisk server to receive calls through the Vonage Softphone DID and make outgoing calls through the Vonage ATA using an X100p to connect to it. Can someone help me out on configuring this? I really need this for my business and would greatly appreciate the help.

I'm using stepAIC to fit a model. Then I'm trying to use that model to predict future happenings. My first few variables are labeled as their column. (Is this a problem?) The dataframe that I use to build the model is the same as the data I'm using to predict with. Here is a portion of what is happening.. This is the value it is predicting = > [1] 9.482975 Summary of the

Hello, Wolfgang. > * How can I define parts of the ABI that cover calling conventions? You should write some parts of codegen, which will translate specific CC'ed code to the target assembler. In general, you have to write 2 routines: 1. Lowering of formal arguments (when function call is performed, function should "see" supplied arguments with specific CC) 2. Lowering of call

Dear Rails team, The handling of the recent vulnerability in Rails has proven somewhat problematic for us. We have recently adopted Rails as our web platform of choice; previously, we used J2EE. We love Rails. We hate J2EE. We don''t want to go back. It took a lot of effort and convincing to get the management teams of our various projects to sign off on the use of Rails. The

I have a STI class tree. I want to set some default values (calculated values so I can''t set it in the database as defaults) on every created instance regardless of what subclass is actually instantiated. So I figured adding a after_create callback in the top class in the hierarchy should do the trick. It seems it doesn''t get called :( Code: class SuperClass <

Before I get flamed, I just want to start off by saying that I am new to Ruby and I really enjoy this language and want to see it succeed. But, what niche does this language fill? These are serious question, not a put down of the language. Does it has something to offer for Web 2.0? Is it just another scripting language? Does it suppose to replace something else? Does it suppose to work with
