I am getting this error. ActiveRecord::AssociationTypeMismatch in Resources#create Focus expected, got String I have a select menu named resource[focus]. My focus (belongs_to :resources) table has a one-to-many relationship with the resources (has_one :focus) table (A resource will have only one focus but one focus will have many resources). I assume this error means that the focus is

I have a form. Everything submits into the database if I don''t have any validation rules. When I put these rules: validates_uniqueness_of :title, :message => "already exists in database" validates_presence_of :title I get this error (which seems weird because I am not validating against that): You have a nil object when you didn''t expect it! You

Is there a way to get access (via javascript) the page elements that were populated with AJAX (observe_field)? If you look at my source I have: <select name="resource[sub_focus_id]" id="resource_sub_focus_id"></select> But the actual select menu is filled with options because I used the observe_field to fill in the options. Now I want to be able to access

Erwin: We found it''s not worth the time to do this. It won''t work reliably. You''re in for a world of hurt. We''ve given up on the idea after several months of trying (and some great feedback from this list). There are some on this list who claim to have gotten it to work, but that might just be luck. We''re now using Apache on a higher port, and using

Can someone explain why form helpers appear to bypass any model methods I override for fields that are bound to database fields? It would be great if someone could tell me how to force the form field, etc to call the method instead of looking at the database / attributes collection. Let''s say I have a column called ''price'' in my database table "books"

I''m just looking into how to connect to Oracle using Rails. I''ve got everything connecting and working as it should. I have a Users table in Oracle: create_table "users", :force => true do |t| t.column "username", :string t.column "created_on", :datetime t.column "email", :string t.column "note", :text

In my daily development, I migrate back and forth between versions, and often do: rake load_fixtures... ... in order to populate my development database with fun data. Now, with any HABTM relationship, there are failures, as there is no way to say "which" fixtures to load first. Within an actual functional or unit test case, you could simply load them in the proper order, but

I''m thinking about signing up with DreamHost for the base Level 1 $9.95 plan. Does anyone think that''s a bad idea? I''d like to know others thoughts, and who they recommend for RoR hosting? Thanks! -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.

All, When I generate scaffolding on my model, it doesn''t display all the fields in the create and edit views. It populates the views with text/char and date types, but omits any integer fields. Is this normal behavior or a bug? Thanks! -Nick

It was a miserable failure for us. Your best bet is to run on Linux. > 1. Has anyone done any benchmarks with it? Is there any reason this > couldn''t be viable for production loads?

Sorry if this is a complete newbish question, but I''m trying to wrap my head around creating custom classes in my rails webapp. I''m normally a Java developer, but I figured I''d give RoR a try and see how I like it, and whether it would be useful for production use with a new client. Anyways, what are the best practices for custom classes? Where and/or how do I create

Hi fellow railers! We are discussing the possibility of writing a very large application in Rails. By "very large" I mean a framework that would contain a few hundred smaller applications that would need to talk to one big database and have to share some common session data I''d like to get some feedback on some possible ways of doing the following: The application would

it''s been a nightmare trying to set it up. I keep getting a an Application Error message when I try to navigate to a url which should be taken care of by my newly created controllers. For instance, I wanted to test RoR out so I created a MyTest controller which should allow me to navigate something like: http://localhost/rubytest/MyTest but it does not. I have no problem getting

I am having issues with a many-to-many table. The table relates resources to standards, but in my resources table has one-to-many relationships so those also appear in my many-to-many table. I am trying to insert into the table via: @resource.core_contents << CoreContent.find(params[:core_content_ids]) But I get this error: Mysql::Error: Duplicate entry

Is there a place I can get a list of "enterprise" Rails applications? Apparently, even though I''ve looked at the wiki and cited the examples there, there are some at my organization who still can''t find proof that Rails is usable in an enterprise setting. Would you fine folks be able to tell me about some large-scale projects that could be classified as

I have everything working and I am really excited about learning Ruby and Rails. But whenever I access my different defs in my controller it takes ~ 5 seconds before they are returned.

Would I use a helper for this situation? I have a layout that is used over two controllers (admin and login). Each controller has their own navigation. Can I do something like this? <%= getNavigation("admin") %> or <%= getNavigation("login") %> And return the navigation list depending on the string sent? Seth Buntin -------------- next part
