Yeah, right... I posted this to the Rails mailing list.

Hi all ! I can''t seem to make a simple thing work... The code is here: http://pastie.caboo.se/130660 Essentially, that''s a form with a couple of partials. The backtrace is included in the pastie. It looks like the context for the current view is lost when a partial is rendered. In _series.html.erb:2, I use "series" to get the name. This is the parameter I

Hi ! I have Lighttpd and SCGI clusters running my applications. I self-host at RimuHosting, but I find that my processes die sometimes. I''m not a Linux administrator, so I simply want some kind of watchdogging process to ensure my stuff keeps on truckin''. I found Watchdog::Process on CPAN, but it won''t install. There''s some kind of error. Launchd would be

Hi ! In the following spec: context "A project owner" do specify "can assign roles to other users" do # ... end end I get the following cryptic error message: 1) NoMethodError in ''A project owner can assign roles to other users'' undefined method `session='' for #<Object:0xb741bed4>

Hi all, I am mocking the following Rails view (inside a partial): <%= render :partial => "forums/forum", :collection => forum_category.forums.readable_by(current_user? ? current_user : nil) %> My spec fails with the following message: 1) ActionView::TemplateError in ''forum_categories/index (anonymous user) should only render forums accessible to anonymous

Hi ! Following the manual, section 2.6 describes how to replace the restart task. Since I''m using Lighttpd and SCGI, I did the following: desc "Restart the web server" task :restart, :roles => :app do sudo "cd #{deploy_to}/#{current} && scgi_cluster stop < #{deploy_to}/#{current}/config/.password" sudo "cd #{deploy_to}/#{current} &&

Hi ! I''m no expect when it comes time to configure Apache. I just enabled page caching in my Rails app, and am now looking at making Apache serve the cached files instead of calling into Rails. I know Mongrel is able to serve cached files if it finds them, but I''d like Apache to do it. Looking at .htaccess, there is this section: RewriteEngine On RewriteRule ^$ index.html

Hi all ! I''m having an issue and I can''t seem to make heads or tails of it. I am attempting to add an observer to a model object. I created app/models/greenback_transaction_observer.rb, inherited from AR::Observer, defined methods, registered in config/environment.rb, but things don''t work... So, I took a step back and put in the following code: class

Hi all ! Could someone tell me what''s what in the Rails Engines Subversion repository ? There are many folders where the Rails Engine is located, and from the folder names alone, I can''t really guess what''s what. For example, the rails engine plugin is situated at: plugins/engine engines/trunk branches/engines branches/edge_engines From the log, I gather

Hi ! I would like to ascertain the following in a test case: @template.expects(:content_tag).with(:fieldset, :__any_arguments__i_dont_care) Is it possible to do so ? If so how ? If not, is it something the community wants ? Is it useful ? Thanks ! -- Fran?ois Beausoleil http://blog.teksol.info/ http://piston.rubyforge.org/

Hi all, Google returns two results for this: http://www.google.ca/search?q=acts_as_ferret+shared_index+option&ie=utf-8&oe=utf-8&aq=t&rls=org.mozilla:fr:official&client=firefox-a Both point to the ChangeLog, so I don''t really know if anybody used a shared index. From the RDoc, I know the option makes AAF "use a Ferret index that is shared by all classes..."

#set_status http://merb.devjavu.com/browser/trunk/lib/merb/mixins/render.rb#L270 refers to a non-existent constant. I tried, while creating #359, to make things OK, but I failed. I started by using STATUS_CODES instead, then used #[] instead of calling a method named STATUS_CODES, then I found out that during the call to #inherited

Hello everyone ! I have a link_to_remote which creates a Party from a ContactRequest. The action on the server creates the party, marks the contact request as processed, and then returns a redirect. According to my knowledge of HTTP, that is the correct thing to do. Unfortunately, Prototype is being too clever for me at this time... It follows the redirect, without notifying me. Anybody has

Hi ! I''m using Mongrel 1.0.1 with --pid and --user/--group. The PID files are correctly owned by the user/group, but their permissions is 0666. Is that normal ? Shouldn''t it be something like 0664 ? Just curious to know if I''m wrong. Configurator has this (line 77): # Writes the PID file but only if we''re on windows. def write_pid_file if

Hi ! I''m using daemontools[1] to manage a few processes on my Debian box. Among other things, I use it to manage svnserve, because it uses less memory than Apache. My /service/svnserve/run looks like this: #!/bin/sh su svn -c "/usr/local/bin/svnserve --foreground --daemon --root /var/svn" Is it safe for me to run like that ? If an attacker cracks svnserve, what will they

Hi all ! Running this: @payout = stub_everything(:id => 141) Payout.stubs(:find).with(@payout.id).returns(@payout) Generates this warning: ./test/functional/payouts_controller_test.rb:22: warning: Object#id will be deprecated; use Object#object_id What am I missing ? :id is a fairly frequent method to override in Rails-based applications.

Hi all, If you are using Pound / Pen or another load balancer, I believe you should read this: http://blog.teksol.info/articles/2006/08/25/subversion-metadata-exposure-on-mongrel My article refers to Dan Benjamin''s http://hivelogic.com/articles/2006/04/30/preventing_svn_exposure My point is that even though we are preventing Apache from serving anything except a select few file

Hi all ! I don''t believe I am the only one using model observers, right ? Well, here''s a nice one: $ drbspec spec .

Hi ! I''m trying to return a simple 201 Created status to the caller, but I can''t seem to do it. I use curl from the command line with the --verbose option, and the response is really 200 OK. My controller code: class Observations < Application def create(feature, node, observation_type) # Do some work... response.status = "201 Created"
