similar to: if condition on validates_presence_of is not working

I''m getting some weird behavior in one of my models. I have a model defined something like this class User < ActiveRecord::Base attr_accessor :password validates_presence_of :password end If I validate the model without specifying a password, I get ["can''t be blank", "can''t be blank"] for :password instead of just one "cant''t

I''ve implemented Rails Recipe #31, Authentication, and I found that validating password and password_confirmation just doesn’t work while the method ‘password=(pass)’ is in the mix, but I need that for the salt/hashing, no? If I don’t use validations, the password gets hashed, salted and stored in the database fine. I can login with same username/password. However, if I want to

validates_presence_of :fname results in the error message "Fname can''t be blank". What I want is "First Name can''t be blank". I could do this def validate errors.add_to_base("First Name can''t be blank") if fname.blank? end I find this clunky and I have to put everyrhing in the validate method. Is there an easy to get what I want. I

Hi, I have a call to validates_presence_of in my model and it is behaving very strangely my first stab when this happened during testing was validates_presence_of :impact, :ease_to_implement if Proc.new { |record| !record.cost_estimate.nil? } I have three values in my model that I care about with this one.

I have a form with 3 fields: user_id, email and password. All 3 fields are required, so I have a "validates_presence_of :user_id, :email, :password" in my model. Works, but the validation errors show up in a different order than I specificed in the validates_presence_of statement. Is there a way to specify the order in which the validations (and corresponding error messages) should

Hi, (probably) A newbie questions: I have a form where a user can choose an email address, but there are only some choices for the domain, so I wrote a helper where the local part of the email is a text field and the domains is a dropdown list, like: Select Email: [ my_name ] @ <domain.com> ..which I defined as a helper: def email_form(tagname, domain_list)

I had posted this on the regular Rails list, but upon trying this in script/console, it seems like the behavior only exists when running rspec. I''m getting some weird behavior in one of my models.

I would like to have a field on a form that does *not* have an underlying column in the table. Yet I would like to perform some validation on the value. I would like the results of the validation to show up just like the validations that are performed in the model. This is very similar to the password_confirmation field on a sign up screen. The password_confirmation is there on the screen, but

I''m having what''s probably a stupid-newbie problem with validates_presence_of and I''m hoping someone will point me in the right direction. Bottom line is that validates_presence_of does not seem to be ''firing'' when I use the :on => :update option. If I don''t include the option, the validation does fire. The problem is that I want to
