Hey, all! I''m having a url problem that seems like I''m going to overcomplicate it if I don''t just ask what I''m doing wrong...

I want to know the easiest way to deal with this scenario: I have articles. I have categories for the articles.

I''m getting ready to deploy a production app based on Camping, but have one little thing I want to iron out. Is it possible to override the ServerError class?

Greetings! The original version of this tutorial was written by Curt Hibbs and published on ONLamp.com. It served as my introduction to both Ruby and Rails. Unfortunately, I experienced some frustration working through it.
