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... My situation is that I''m testing to see if a visitor is accessing a controller via SSL, and if not, redirect to the same controller via my secure address. This really only amounts to replacing http with https, and so I did the

I have many "edit" actions in my project. If the url is like http://localhost/project/3/edit and someone enters http://localhost/project/3333333/edit the edit action will fails because it cannot find a project with id of 3333333. To combat this I am adding to every action like edit: rescue redirect_to :action => ''index'' flash[''errors''] =

Does anyone know how to use Mongrel to create virtual hosts? My production site will have all kinds of domains pointing to it, and I also need to figure out how to do subdomains. Rails should react to the host name, doing a lookup based on the name and pull different records from the database based on this. For example, I''d like www.mysite.com to point back to 127.0.0.1:3000, and the

Can I get some opinions on which free DB to use with rails for a virtual server that will eventually be doing lots of heavy database lifting? Not a lot of heavy duty querying per se. Think multiple simultaneous forums and blog sites and the like. I know each of the different DB possibilities such as MySQL and PostgreSQL has plus points and minus points. I''m particularly interested

Hi there I''m considering Rails for a new web-application planned to be built from scratch. The application has an extensive web front, and in fact most of the application is interfaced through that front and engaged through clients'' HTTP requests (i.e. the conventional way web-applications and "dynamic web-sites" work). However, some essential parts are supposed to

Hi all, I''ve been offered a short-term contract here in the North of England - around 3 months work, but with RoR I think it will take considerably less time - and am just curious what market rates were right now.

Is there any reason to avoid using postgresql for small web apps? That is, is it''s overhead so large that the lighter MySQL will work substantially better for small apps on small machines? Or are they very similar in performance and configuration? I''ve used MySQL but postgresql has its appeals and I''m wondering if I need to keep MySQL around at all. On the other
