I am trying to make a barebones login system based on this example (which in turn is just standard RoR login) but when I enter a user name and password, it says the login is unsuccessful every time. I am not sure where I am going wrong. Here is all relevent information CREATE TABLE `users` ( `id` int(6) unsigned NOT NULL auto_increment, `login` varchar(20) NOT NULL default

Hello there, this is probably a very simple problem but I''m stuck. I''m following the Login generator tutorial from rubyonrails. It''s all worked fine so far. But I want to add a bit more functionality so that when a user signs up in addition to chosing a login name and password they type in a company name which is added to a seperate table called COMPANIES. The id

Here is an example that seems perfect for Ajax that I have not seen implemented nor can figure out how to do it. I am hoping someone can give me some pointers. On the sign-up page, I would like to do my validations (password length, username uniqueness,etc ) Ajax-style. But if all validates, then redirect to the success page. The combining of redirection to a new page with Ajax is throwing me.

Hey all, I know that this: Called id for nil, which would mistakenly be 4 -- if you really wanted the id of nil, use object_id means that I have an instance variable that has not been initialized. However, I''m a little confused as to what to do in a signup form for form_for: <% content_for :login do %> <% form_for @user, :url => { :action => "login" } do

Hi, I have a form for user registration. In that form there are fields for password & confirm_password. Now in my database there is column corresponding to password field. Now at clicnt side I want to validate equality of password & confirm_password field. How to do that? I have downloaded one password validator plugin & tried to used it.

Hi, I have a form for creating users ... <% form_tag ''userconfirm'' do -%> <!-- more code --> <p><label for="user_login">Username</label><br/> <%= text_field ''user'', ''login'' %></p> <p><label for="user_password">Password</label><br/> <%=

Hi, I am new to rails and I have setup Typo on my site. One little thing bugs me, the login page doesn''t give focus to the "user_login" field. I was wondering what do I need to do to make rails help with this? I have seen some simple inline javascript to set the focus, sort of like: document.<form_name>.user_login.focus() However the rails view doesn''t

Hi, I''m having a problem trying to get a login controller working. When I try and post to my login controller I get the following error: ActionController::InvalidAuthenticityToken in LoginController#login login_controller: class LoginController < ApplicationController def login case request.method when :post if @session[''user''] =

I have been working on a small app that started with some scaffolding. Some of my actions still have the structure where the id''s of things are passed on the url for gets. Whats the best way to avoid the security problems that this creates? I am sure that there are many pages written on this topic but I guess I have been searching for the wrong things.

Hello all, There seems to be a bug in internet explorer 5 where a redirect causes the session to be lost. A controller says.... def login case @request.method when :post if @session[:user] = User.authenticate(@params [:user_login], @params[:user_password]) return redirect_to(:action=>''send_confirmation'') unless

Hi, I am using Matt McCray''s theme generator. http://rubyforge.org/projects/theme-generator/ Everything works fine, but rendering an action in a controller using the AppMailer raises this: undefined method `current_theme'' for #<AppMailer:0x39df950> Is there someone who could help me ?

Ok, I''ve got some link_to_remote stuff working elsewhere just fine, but this time it''s doing something very screwy. Here''s the view code to create a link to remotely toggle a boolean value on a record: <td class="contact_active"> <%= link_to_remote "<div id=''contact_active_#{cm.id}''><span

Newb here. I have a form and a value that is being displayed ... and I have no idea where the value came from. I have done a <%= debugger; '''' %> in the form and, indeed, the debugger stops at the statement. I have tried to trace through the code to see where the value came from ... and I gave up. So ... what in Rails initializes the fields of a form? -- Posted via

Hi, We have a rails app which is essentially a web UI to a unix filesystem, and which has been performing rather slowly. I''ve been looking at rewriting it in merb, so I did a quick spike where I ported over all the rails code necessary to log in as a user, and generate the same file list page that rails was serving up. However, the numbers appear quite bad (twice as slow as rails, for a

I have a layout that provides the basic outline of each page in my app. It has a title, footer and a navigation bar. In the title I want to put the name of the current user that is logged in. I could do something like @session[:username] but I would rather encapsulate that into a single variable so that I can change the key in the session map if I want without having to goto each page that

Hey I just ran this "ruby script/generate login loging_in" here is my SQL: CREATE TABLE `users` ( `id` int(11) NOT NULL auto_increment, `user_name` varchar(80) default NULL, `login` varchar(120) NOT NULL default '''', `last_update` timestamp NOT NULL default ''0000-00-00 00:00:00'', `last_attack` timestamp NOT NULL default ''0000-00-00

Hi, url_for has a nice way of using the current ''params'' object to fill in default parameters in a route. For example, map.connect '':controller/:action/:id/'' with <%= url_for :action => ''my_action'' %> will redirect to the current controller. All very good. However, I sometimes want a url_for() which includes current parameters

When I deploy using switchtower the code does not update at all. It does however copy the old release into its timestamped directory under /releases/, but nothing in /currect/... is updated. Any help at all would be much appreciated! -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.
