similar to: Implementing HTTPS with WEBrick?

I have a simple Intranet app I want to make accessible via the Internet for remote access by our employees. I want to use ssl (https) connections and I''ve found enough messages to imply Webrick as included in rails can do the job. The message at http://wrath.rubyonrails.org/pipermail/rails/2005-January/001993.html even appears to tell me exactly how to do it by modifying

Can you set a global before_filter action in application.rb? So, for example, you could control authentication for all of the controllers in an app.? Obviously, you would need a way to reference actions by controller within this "global before-filter". Thanks, Wes -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.

I have an application i''m installing on my application server. I''ve been using WEBrick and for now i''d like to just keep using it working in prototype development mode. This works fine on my development machine using both http and https, where the host is ''localhost'' (ports 3000,3001). It also works fine on the application server http port 3000. The

All, I have a left navigation partial that I want to dynamically generate CSS classes for based on the current controller action. In my ERb template, I have <DIV class="<%= get_menu_display_style(''login_form'') %>"> In application.rb, I have the method get_menu_display_style defined as: public def get_menu_display_style(action_requested)

I am doing an Ajax call in my page to a controller method like so: new Ajax.Request(''<%= url_for(:action => "target_list_add" )%>'', { asynchronous:true });" In my controller method "target_list_add", I do something and then I say: redirect_to( :action => ''target_list_upload'', :layout => false ) I know for certain

Assume that I refactor some code into a module and "require it into" my controller. Do I then need to restart my WEBrick server each time that I change the module? Thanks, Wes -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.

It appears that Mongrel is now the default development server for Rails as of 2.x. I''m assuming this because I''m unable to run Mongrel (for reasons I don''t totally understand yet - I am running Windows and I keep getting asked for MSVCR80.dll which is a _64 bit_ dll on my Win XP machine) and if I issue ruby script/server, I see the same errors that I get when I try to

All, If I want my form action to be a secure target, what is the best way to go about doing that? I''m trying to do: <%= start_form_tag( { :protocol => ''https://'', :host => request.host + '':3001'', :action => ''login'' } ) %> in my view, but this doesn''t seem to generate a URL with https:// and my SSL host in

I have a side navigation bar with links embedded in it like the following: <%= link_to( ''Create Job'', { :controller => ''eSimply'', :action => ''upload'' }) %> This link now shows a routing exception Recognition failed for "/eSimply/upload" This link has worked for over through Rails

All, I have a route specified as: map.connect '':folder/:filename'', :folder => /htmlfiles/, :controller => "eSimply", :action => "preview_HTML" I expect it to invoke the "preview_HTML" action in the "eSimply" controller. Given an argument of "htmlfiles/xyz.html", it keeps saying that it can''t find an

All, I have a link that used to work but now generates a routing error. The link URL is a straightforward controller/action/id and of course, I have map.connect '':controller/:action/:id'' in my routes.rb file. When I click on this link, I get a routing error. What''s potentially interesting about this URL is that the controller name is mixed case. Class is

All, Is there a way to set things up so that requests for static files in either WEBrick or Mongrel will just cause a regular HTTP request and not cause the dynamic routing-based invocation to occur? I had an issue where a request for a missing .js file was causing another request to be registered, thus blowing away my flash data. I tried to do this in my routing file, but I don''t

I would like to set up some my app. to display a standalone HTML page - not rendered through RoR per se. Something like render(:inline => some_Javascript_function... then in the Javascript some_Javascript_function, I want to open up a popup with the URL I specify. However, because it is a relative URL, it is going through the RoR routing algorithm. I don''t want that - can I

Hi everyone. I recently wrote a nice module that I want to use in my rails app. It consists of a few files in a directory that I have places in the lib directory. It looks like this: /lib/KMLTools/foo.rb, bar.rb, baz.rb Some of these files load each other and I finally got those to work by using the File.dirname(__FILE__) trick. When I simply require the file into my controller, everything is

All, I''ve upgraded to 2.0.2, and I can''t get my login screen (the first POST request in the application) to work. When I post this form, I see the "InvalidAuthenticityToken" error. I have protect_from_forgery :secret => ''my_secret'' set in application.rb and I am using an active_record session store based on this line in environment.rb:

I am trying to access the Upload Progress feature in Action_Controller. When I add Action_Controller::Base.enable_upload_progress to my environment.rb file, and restart WEBrick, I get the following error: C:\eclipse\workspace\eSimplyOnlineRails>ruby script/server => Booting WEBrick... c:/ruby/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/activesupport-1.2.5/lib/active_support/ dependencies.rb:195:in

All, Thanks for any help in advance. I have what I think is a very straightforward partial template and I can''t figure out why a text_field call within it doesn''t work. Here is my calling template: lists.rhtml <div id="target_lists"> <%= render(:partial => "target_lists", :collection => @target_lists) %> </div> In the partial

All, I want to run automated unit tests as part of my build. I am building to my test environment. Upon successful completion of all of my unit tests, I would then like to load some data (using a fixture, I imagine) into my test database that will act as fresh "system test" data for my users to play with. What is the best way to "load the standard system test/user acceptance

All, I''ve run into a snag. I need to handle the display of elements on my page and I want to use my Javascript event handlers on page load. However, my BODY tag is trapped in my generic layout. I''m thinking that I can put an onLoad on the BODY tag that will just call a Javascript method called initializePage() and then provide this initializePage() call in my specific page
