Hello all, I have a question regarding the security of my new web zine. The idea is that I have editors that can log into the site, and then upload comics in the form of a jpg. The way that I have this set up right now is that the jpg is submitted through a form and then placed into the authors sub directory in public/comics/. The record of the jpg is stored in a pendingcomics table

If you installed your copy of ruby via DarwinPorts, the hashbang lines at the top of your dispatch.* scripts says "#!/opt/local/bin/ruby". This is a problem, if you''re deployin via Capistrano to a host with a different path to ruby (which would be practially all of them:-) Here''s a fix. Add this "fix_hashbangs.rb" script to your script directory.

Does Rails give me anything to work with for doing that? I read the web service stuff but it''s overkill for what I need. I

The code I came up with is a bit ugly: redirect_to join_url unless (@logged_in or action_name == "join") I''m pretty sure

Firstly, Congrats to the Rails team for the 1.1 release! I installed Rails using the package created by Tony Arnold, referenced here: <http://tonyarnold.com/articles/2005/08/10/rolling-with-ruby-on-rails-on-mac-os-x-tiger-for-beginners> I did the upgrade to Rails 1.1 and all went well.

In a functional test, I want to call an action in another controller (a login) before testing things in the current controller. As far as I can tell from the extremely sparse documentation and the AWDR book, this seems to be impossible. The post() functions takes an action argument only, and that''s that. Surely I must be misunderstanding things? -- Calle Dybedahl
