Hi! I have been learning rails for a couple of week now. Mostly i''ve worked on a authorize/roles system and now i go to the point that i want to separate it from en rest of my application to share it with others and to use it in other projects. It is a quite simple system that i implement using before_filter. My vision is to separate the authorize methods and even some basic

This is apache/fcgi/rails/firefox. When using a rails app we have been experiencing sudden blank pages in the browser. We show an model "new object" page and start changing stuff and all of a sudden the page will be erased to blank! Any idea what could cause something like this? -- Posted with http://DevLists.com.

Hi. I''m using RoR 1.0 with FastCGI and lighttpd on a Debian 3.1 box. I have configured lighttpd to do adaptive spawning of the FastCGI processes. However, after shutting down lighttpd the FastCGI processes remain running. Did this problem occur to anyone of you? Is there a fix? I''d be really grateful for every answer.

I currently have a dedicated server at ev1servers, but it''s getting rather antiquated (Redhat 9) and am looking to upgrade. I''m thinking about serverbeach.com - one of their CentOS servers. Anybody have any recommendations for dedicated servers on which to run Rails? Hopefully less than $200/month. Thanks! CSN __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?

I''m trying to set a date field''s day to the last day of the month before I save it.

Hi How do I publish a plugin so I can download it via ./script/plugin. I''ve put my plugin (ActiveRBAC) on http://wiki.rubyonrails.com/rails/ pages/Plugins but seemingly ./script/plugin discover does not find it :/ Even if I do ./script/plugin source \ https://activerbac.turingstudio.com/source/active_rbac/trunk/ active_rbac it does not appear on ./script/plugin list.

Sorry, but this is really NOT as easy as the tutorials/books make out. I''m really struggling at the first hurdle here. And while I''m not a programmer by design I do know my way around most stuff. And if I can''t get this to work I suspect more people will have the same issues. There seems to be too many variables to address. I have winXP, I have ruby and rails all

I had some concerns about breaking Rails table relationships (:has_many, :has_and_belongs_to_many, :belongs_to, :acts_as_*, etc) when moving multiple databases (using the same application) into one. I seem to be stuck when trying to wrap my head around a good database design for what I would like to do or if I am just completely not thinking straight. I guess this isn''t related

I''m doing a fotolog for a company. It''s expected to manage about 100k of connections per day and about 1500 concurrents connections. What hardware should I buy to manage those numbers of connections?

I''m running into the need (on at least one project now) to implement end-user-customizable "metadata" or properties on model objects. The standard example would be a Person class that had first_name, last_name, etc. but would need to be extended real-time (through the web admin interface) with properties such as phone_number : varchar (30).
