I''ve got a bunch of table creations in the schema.rb file and all is well. However, I have to manually go and create the db first. Is there a way (something like a create_database method) to get this to work?

We have a situation where one app on the server seems to be affecting another. So, we start the first app on port 3000 and run it and all is well. We start the second app on port 3006 and it fails (blank screen). We then have to blow away the temp files and try again. If we start the 3006 one it will work and then start 3000 and it fails. So, in essence the first one wins. Any thoughts? We are in

Well, I know there''s a better way (not using frames) but bear with me while we get rev 1 out the door and then switch. In the meantime I need to redirect from one frame into another and cannot for the life of me figure out a reference to get to another frame: redirect_to :controller => testController'', :action => testProc'' I cannot seem to add :target or

I am curious partly because it has occurred randomly in my asterisk system. How does one go about creating a .call file for placing a call between two extensions/phones? I know this has been mentioned and is probably in one of the wikis somewhere, but I am unsure exactally how to go about doing it. Can anyone point me in the right direction. Dan

lets say i have the following SQL in my database editor : When i paste it into rad rails i have to add quotes and the ''+'' symbol to the end of each line. It is very tedious. What is the best method? select timesheets.employee, sum(items.hours) as hours, sum(items.hours*timesheets.cost) as cost, sum(items.hours*timesheets.charge*decode(activities.chargetype,0,1,0)) as charge,

I''m trying to set deploy an app on apache2 with the fcgid module, but can''t seem to get anywhere. Things work fine with cgi, but when i switch to fcgi, i''m stuck with a ''503: Service Temporarily Unavailable''. There''s no error being logged anywhere, afaik. Trying to run dispatch.fcgi from the shell doesn''t work either. It bombs out,
