Greetings all, I''m sure there is probably a very obvious reason for the following problem. However, after much hair pulling, I am just not seeing it yet. As you can see from the trace below, I am not able to complete scaffold generation due to some problem between rails and mysql. I double checked MySQL to make sure both my Ruby user and Root user have full rights to the database.

I saw that there''s a patch in the queue (http://dev.rubyonrails.com/ticket/1874) for a Firebird adapter. Just wondering if anyone is using this, the other Firebird adapter, or something else w/ Rails. My main interest is that sometimes Windows is a target platform, and Firebird is stable on Windows, whereas I''ve heard that the Windows version of PostgreSQL isn''t

I saw that the Firebird adapter was merged to the trunk last night... thanks Jeremy! Since I last submitted the fb patch (11/1), I''ve been working on several improvements, including: 1) I reorganized the code to match the newer conventions used in the other adapters (mostly just changed the order and grouping of methods, and added some "section header" comments). 2) An updated,

I cant figure out how to do global regular expressions in ruby. Im not even sure if its possible. In the "Programming Ruby" book there is no mention of it. Can you do this? text = "aaa1 bbb2 ccccc3 dddddd4 eee5" re = /\w+\d{1}/ matches = re.match text m[0] = "aaa1" m[1] = nil m[2] = nil and so on.... Is there any way to get an array of all the matches??

I would have never imagined that I''d be bitten by the Y2038 bug someday... but it just happened and, trust me, it hurts! I have to deal with a database containing datetime fields with dates up to 2050 and more. ActiveRecord raises an exception because Ruby''s Time class implementation. Besides running Ruby on a 64-bit platform, what can be done to avoid that? Does a

Hi All, Is anyone successfully using ROR 2.x with Firebird 2.x in a production environment? The support seems to have dwindled. I would greatly appreciate any installation guidelines, comments or tips. What is somewhat confusing is what is required to for ROR to play nicely with firebird.

Hi all, I have played with JRuby on Rails in the past and managed to make it work with Firebird. Although migrations did not work, I managed to do everything manually and it worked. Now, I am working with Ruby on Rails and was wondering if anyone here has managed to get Rails to work with Firebird 2.1.x. If yes, what were the steps? I installed fb and fb_adapter, and I get the following error:

Being a somewhat jaded Java programmer I''ve decided to make an evaluation of Ruby and Rails. I''ve purchased both the Pragmatic books (Programming Ruby, Agile Web Development with Rails) and I''d like to get people''s opinions as to the best way to use them. When you were learning Rails did you find that you had to read Programming Ruby first or did you

I am trying to create the perfect development environment for rails and i dont know exactly which way to go. Do i create a windows environment or a *nix environment.
