Hi, I want to upload a product image to my rails app. I only want to store the file name in the database and the actual image file in public/image/. This seems complicated with file_field. Any pointers or links with explainations? Thanks, Peter

Hello, I''m confused why the spec described below is failing. Other simple comparison specs are passing fine for the same model. The code is working accordingly when I test it through the console, I''m just having difficulty getting this spec to work. Any pointers would be appreciated.

Hi, all, I''m trying to write a spec for a controller method that starts out: def download @orders = Order.find( params[:ids] ) ... and started writing a spec that set params[:ids] to a mock. I was surprised to discover that controller specs (at least in RSpec 1.0.8) don''t offer the use of the params object (per

I''ve come across rather strange behaviour when trying to raise an exception in a stubbed method. I''m speccing the behaviour of a Rails create action, where I''m using save! to catch failed saves. In the case of working save, I''m using the following stub: @client.stub!(:save!).and_return(true) which works fine. However, in the negative case,

I have a simple program that read all HTML files from a directory and returns parts of the content and the file names which are HREFs to those file. I build the HREF string dynamicaly as PATH_TO_DOC_ROOT + "file_name". My PATH_TO_DOC_ROOT = http://127.0.0.1:3000/docman/public/docs. So, the final link that I am interested in might look like this:

I have a mysql database that I am trying to use migrations on. 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 think I must be missing something obvious... I have... class OrderController < ApplicationController model :order scaffold :order def list @orders = Order.find_all_by_status(@params[:status], :order => "date" ) end end class Order < ActiveRecord::Base belongs_to :customer end and i''m getting... /Unknown column ''orderdate'' in

Hi I''d like to know how to add default text text area using the function text_area. I ''ve tried using value = "....." to do this but with no luck. Could some one please answer my simple question? Thanks. Dan. -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.

Is there something currently going on on the rspec trunk that causes a massive slowdown when running rake spec and autotest (without spec_server)? I updated to the latest trunk yesterday and the time needed to run the specs of my app jumped from ~20 seconds to more than a minute. The weird thing is that if I run the rake spec tasks separately (controllers, models, views, helpers), they

First let me say that Rails caching is very very cool. The traffic (and responsiveness) I''ve saved by added 10 lines of ruby code would be enourmous, if I actually had traffic... ;) Sweepers as observers are great, btw. Since every page of my side is dynamic, once I did some DB optimization I''m caching the content of the index page which was taking the bulk of the time to load

I haven''t been spec''ing lately, but been hopping back on and adding autotest. However I get an error: http://pastie.caboo.se/177538/wrap I also noticed a post by Scott and there was mention of rspec_autotest. Is this is what everyone is using? http://svn.caldersphere.net/svn/main/plugins/rspec_autotest/

I''m using a cache sweeper class [1] to take care of some pretty complex sweeping. However, there is a problem with the current implementation. Namely, the sweeper gets called only when an action named in cache_sweeper is called using GET. As many methods where sweeper would be useful are using postback to send the form to the same action, this causes the cache to get swept when

I have added roles and roles_users table and updated the model so that my users can have multiple roles. ("Admin" role does always have id = 1). I have added these methods to my application controller. <code> helper_method :is_admin? helper_method :is_user? def is_admin? if @session[''user''] @session[''user''].roles.find(1)

Simple question. Is it possible to generate a link like <a href="http://www.google.com" target="_blank" >google</a> with the link_to function ? Thanks

Thanks to everyone who responded to my first set of questions. Not only did I get my questions answered but I improved my code and learned a couple new things. I think I prefer the mailing list over IRC... easier to follow :-) I have some more questions if you don''t mind. Some are Rails related and some are Ruby related. 1) This is concerning displaying error messages. I am assuming

I have an Apache 2.2.3 (mod_proxy_balancer) frontend server that does not have mongrel installed. It does proxy requests to several other mongrel-only servers (each running 2 mongrel processes). Each mongrel node has the same rails code-base and it''s working perfectly. However, my question is when I add an upload file form... where is it going to physically put that file? I mean since

Hello. I''ve been trying this out for the past two days and I can''t seem to get it. I''m going to have a page where you can upload x amount of images at once. Lets say 10 images need to be uploaded, all with a caption. I''d like to have a browse button to choose the file, then the caption. Now, if I put 10 of them in one form, fill them all out and submit, I get

Hello, Could anybody please tell me how I would show a message or an image while the ajax request gets processed? thank you in advance for your help. this is what I came up with but it doesn''t really work: function getHTML() { var url = "./scripts/rfiles.php"; var par = ""; var myAjax = new Ajax.Updater("fm-viewdetails", url, {method:
