My app runs fine on webrick, but I get a ActiveRecord::ConnectionNotEstablished when I try to run it on lighttpd. Here''s the app''s lighttpd config: $HTTP["host"] =~ "(www\.)?mysite\.com" { server.document-root = "/home/pergesuteore/public/" server.error-handler-404 = "/dispatch.fcgi" fastcgi.server = ( ".fcgi" => (

I finally got around to installing lighttpd on my mac for dev work, followed the instructions at http://hivelogic.com/articles/2005/12/01/ruby_rails_lighttpd_mysql_tiger When I go into my rails app and type "./script/server" I get the following errors: baggio:~/work/teore pergesu$ ./script/server => Booting lighttpd (use ''script/server webrick'' to force WEBrick)

I''ve seen a number of posts where someone says, "What happens if you just run dispatch.fcgi directly?" Every time I do it, I get a "500: internal server error" message. I was just curious if that''s what''s expected running it directly. I assume so, because my apps all work fine, but that''s always bugged me. Pat

Hi all, I just updated lighttpd from 1.4.8 to 1.4.9 and it now refuses to start with the following error: 2006-01-24 23:12:24: (mod_fastcgi.c.989) execve failed for: public/ dispatch.fcgi No such file or directory 2006-01-24 23:12:24: (mod_fastcgi.c.1015) the fastcgi-backend public/ dispatch.fcgi failed to start: 2006-01-24 23:12:24: (mod_fastcgi.c.1019) child exited with status 2

but the model isn''t the right place to send mail from. That just seems like pretty bad coupling, generating emails from within the model. Or is that not a problem? On top of that, these emails need to contain links back to my site...which is a bit of a pain in ActionMailer, but I found directions on http://wiki.rubyonrails.com/rails/pages/HowtoUseUrlHelpersWithActionMailer however I

Started a new Rails project, and installed RSpec and the Rails plugin vendor/plugins/rspec (svn://rubyforge.org/var/svn/rspec/trunk/rspec) - 1332 vendor/plugins/rspec_on_rails (svn://rubyforge.org/var/svn/rspec/trunk/rspec_on_rails/vendor/plugins/rspec_on_rails) - 1332 Generated the rspec file, created a model...the spec runs fine if I do ruby spec/models/foo_spec.rb. Running rake though gives

I''ve got switchtower set up, and it seems to work fine except for one problem: It doesn''t successfully restart lighttpd. I have the following task in my deploy.rb file: desc "Restart the web server" task :restart, :roles => :app do sudo "/usr/local/etc/rc.d/lighttpd.sh restart" end This is on a FreeBSD system, so it''s using the rc script to

rspec_resource_generator ======================== By Pat Maddox Use this generator to generate RESTful scaffolding with RSpec specifications. Syntax is exactly the same as the scaffold_resource generator: ./script/generate rspec_resource ModelName [field:type field:type] When you run this generator, it will create a migration, model, and model spec file. In addition, it gives you a RESTful

I''d like to start gathering information/debating on the advantages/disadvantages of using it "should ..." vs other techniques. Dan North explained why we should use should: http://dannorth.net/introducing-bdd/ I used to use it "should ..." for the projects I was on, until I was challenged by a fellow developer who started using it with an active voice. For example

I mentioned this in another thread, but I''ve got a formal request now. After reading tons of stuff about REST, I don''t really get it. I need to see an example. I''d like someone to write up an example blog app with these requirements - RESTful using the simply_restful plugin (or edge rails) - allows posting of comments to articles - has categories for posts No need

@settings.should allow_publish_ip("127.0.0.1") fails with undefined method `allow_publish_ip'' for #<#<Class:0x2f8fd48>:0x2f5a968> @settings.should_allow_publish_ip("127.0.0.1") works fine This is rspec 0.8.2. http://rspec.rubyforge.org/documentation/expectations.html says that matching arbitrary predicates is deprecated and to see

I''ve got a couple apps that I use (billing app, support ticket app, some other custom apps) that I want to integrate into one site. They will all use the same layout for the most part, and will link between each other. When I initially thought of doing this, I figured if I put the apps at different roots - /billing /support etc - then the links wouldn''t work at all, because

I want to use ActiveResource in my app. Instead of hitting server though, I want it to load from a file when I call find. Any clue how I do that? Pat

I created a project, made a migration, generated scaffolding...start up webrick and I get nothing. To simplify things, I just started another project and generated a controller, still getting nothing. The index page loads fine, but nothing beyond that. If I go to anything that should give me a 404, the page is just blank. The Webrick console just says a 500 (nothing explaining why), and

I''ve got enough models now that I''d like to separate them into modules. For example, I have the class Player that I want to stick in the Trainer module. I''ve changed the definition to class Trainer::Player I''ve created a models/trainer dir, test/unit/trainer, and test/fixtures/trainer. Change the PlayerTest class to be Trainer::PlayerTest. I get the

I finally got around to upgrading from 0.8.2 (!!). I had a spec which looked like specify "should render abc123" do controller.should_render :text => "abc123" get :key end With 1.0.0, the new spec is it "should render abc123" do get :key response.should render_text("abc123") end However it doesn''t work, giving me the error: undefined

So I''d been running gem releases of rspec for the past several months, and I installed edge rspec so that I can use Story Runner. I''m running into a problem because I''ve got a couple rake tasks that reference "spec/rake/raketask". If I try to run "rake spec" then it pulls in the gem version instead of the plugin version. rake blows up saying that

I''m running FreeBSD 6.1 and installed the 1.0.1.1 mongrel_cluster prerelease. I had a problem with the mongrels not stopping, and it turns out it''s because ps is reporting my processes as just [ruby18] instead of someting more like "mongrel_rails start -d ......." Not sure why it''s doing that, but it is. Any ideas? For the time being I just changed line

I saw the RCov page at http://rspec.rubyforge.org/tools/rcov.html and decided to add it to my project. My rakefile looks like this: require "rake" require "spec/rake/spectask" desc "Run all specs with RCov" Spec::Rake::SpecTask.new("spec:rcov") do |t| t.spec_files = FileList["spec/**/*_spec.rb"] t.rcov = true end When I run rake spec:rcov,

I''m writing a simple app that doesn''t need to use a database. I added :active_record to the config.frameworks -= line in environment.rb file. This lets me run ./script/generate fine without complaining about no connection. However if I try to run a functional test, it complains about no connection being established. Well...I don''t want a connection to be established.
