similar to: active migration gives undefined_method ''string_to_binary''

The problem that I am having is that when I create a blob field in my migration file like so: t.column "data", :binary, :limit => 15.megabytes, :null => false rails changes it to this in the schema: t.column "data", :binary, :default => "", :null => false not only is this not what I wanted

I have not been able to get DB migrations to work at all in Rails 1.0 for me. On multiple platforms I continually get the same errors.

After changing my DB schema to jive more with the

Hi all, I am in the process of adding Migration support to the Ingres ActiveRecord adapter and have run in to a problem. During the call to create_table the Ingres adapter some how causes ruby to blow the stack and coredump/segv. I have tracked down the problem down to "add_column_options!" in "lib/active_record/connection_adapters/abstract/schema_statements.rb".

I am attempting to write a FrontBase activerecord adaptor. I''m down to only two unit tests failing, and one of them is binary_test.rb. I can''t figure out the logic of binary to string conversion.

I have been attempting to use migrations as a build a poll app. I have created the initial file: ----------------- class CreateTablePollsAndPollOptions < ActiveRecord::Migration def self.up create_table polls do |table| table.column ''question'', :string table.column ''user_id'', :integer table.column ''start_time'',

All, Rails 1.1.6. Any AR find() call that generates a SELECT * type query against a table with a DATETIME column in SQL Server whose value occurs before 1970 will fail, because of the coercion of SQL Server datetime types to Time values in Ruby. See sqlserver_adapter.rb line 490 (record[col] = record[col].to_time if record[col].is_a? DBI::Timestamp) If I remove the coercion (just commenting

hi. i''ve an application which is using a local mysql server (on localhost). i then moved the mysql server to another machine (remote host) and changed accordingly the "database.yml" file. when i launch webrick from the "localhost", it can connect to the database but as soon as i call a controller of the application (for example

To all fellow Dreamhosters out there... Sometimes my app mysteriously loses its connection to the database, resulting in a big ugly "Application Error (Rails)" page. Usually refreshing the page makes it go away, but not today. :-( In production.log I see this: MysqlError (Lost connection to MySQL server during query): Any idea why this happens? It''s rather intermittent

Hello, I''m a newbie to rails and I am trying to do the Demo in the November Issue of Linux Journal. Things go fine go fine until I try to connect to my Postgres database (ver 8.1). At this point I get the following error message ---- RoR error and trace back ---- PGError in Admin#index could not connect to server: Permission denied Is the server running on host "localhost"

I''m just starting my first rails app and I can''t figure out this error. It''s got something to do with connecting to sqlite3...Here''s the application trace: <code> /usr/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/activesupport-1.2.5/lib/active_support/dependencies.rb:200:in `const_missing''

Hi, I''m totally new to Ruby and Rails and I''m trying to set up a prototype web site. Unfortunately, I''m having problems with ActiveRecord using multiple threads. What I want to do is fairly simple. I have a Controller that receives and saves data from the web in the DB, but once that''s done I want to process this data in another thread and then save the

I''ve encountered a perplexing problem whilst following along the demo app in the "Agile Web Development with Rails" book. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Here is a brief time line of my tale of woe:- 0.

My Application runs fine when run on webrick, but throws up database error when run from apache. this is the copy of the FULL TRACE i get /usr/local/lib/ruby/site_ruby/1.8/oci8.rb:131:in `create'' /usr/local/lib/ruby/site_ruby/1.8/oci8.rb:131:in `initialize'' /usr/local/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/activerecord-1.13.2/lib/active_record/connection_adapters/oci_adapter.rb:515:in

OK, I''m diving into new things - a .net programmer and windows user trying to develop in Rails on my Mac. Initial setup was easy, and I had things working and was thrilled with myself. Then I shut down. Next time I booted up, mysql was acting all kinds of funny. I finally got that working again (I *think* it mostly had to do with me not having the right path, I unfortunately

Most likely due to something I misconfigured and/or broke when trying to get the new polymorphic acts_as_taggable to work...In short, after installing that gem and then trying to run gem install mysql on my windows server, I''ve been getting this weird error on every page I try to hit. If anyone give give me any insight into how I messed this up or how to fix, it would be much
