Hi all,

I want to send an e-mail using google smtp, but I get the following
message:

Must issue a STARTTLS command first

does anyone here knows what should I do?

thanks

Bruno Reis

Hi buddy,

download the Radrails  as IDE and download the instanterails from web.
extract the InstantRails and show ruby.exe in  InstantRails to radrails
preference.
I think it will be easy for to work on ROR in this way.

let me know if u feel any problem.
Good luck.

I'm new to Ruby too, but it should work if you open up a console, change
directory to your desktop (C:\Documents and
Settings\<username>\Desktop\) and there types "ruby hello.rb"

/Niclas

Hi Everyone...I am totally new to this language. I have
installed ruby on my computer. I have a ruby icon on
desktop. The name of the icom is hello.rb. Inside I have
the following text:

#generate some simple output (comment)
puts "Hello World"

When I click on this icon, I get a small black screen
the disappears after a few seconds. I assume it has
some words on it but the screen goes by so fast I can't read
it. How do I change the screen to show black letters
on a white background? How do I keep the screen visible
until I choose to click it off?

Thanks for your help. Yahdoco

Hi,

I generate in RoR an XML file representing Oracle database data, which
is then sent to an Adobe Flex UI as an HTTP Web Service. In order to
format DATES in a way that Flex understands, I add the following code
to environment.rb :

ActiveSupport::CoreExtensions::Time::Conversions::DATE_FORMATS.merge!
( :flex => '%a %b %d %H:%M:%S %Y' )

Then, I temporarily modify the formatting of my datetime data, in this
function :

   def list_timespan_flexdateformat_xml
     old_proc = Hash::XML_FORMATTING['datetime']
     Hash::XML_FORMATTING['datetime'] = Proc.new { |datetime|
datetime.to_s(:flex2) }

     @rv_wrk_calendar_events = RvWrkCalendarEvent.find(
                                       :all, :conditions =>
[ "start_date >= ? and start_date <= ?",

params[:min_start_date], params[:max_start_date]])
     render :xml => @rv_wrk_calendar_events.to_xml

     Hash::XML_FORMATTING['datetime'] = old_proc
   end

This works well for all Oracle DATE fields that contain TIME
information. But for some mysterious reason, it doesn't work when the
DATE field doesn't contain TIME information. The only meager result is
that some formats (e.g., '%Y %m %d', '%Y/%m/%d' or '%Y-%m-%d')
generate this :

<start_date type="datetime">2007-08-23</start_date>

instead of the default :

<start_date type="datetime">2007-08-23T00:00:00+02:00</start_date>

I tried replacing "datetime" with "time" in the code above, to no
avail...

I know I can eventually parse the date in Flex, but this problem is
driving me crazy!

Chris.

This is how I solved my problem, using find ( :all ):

   def list_xml
     @rv_wrk_medical_staffs = RvWrkMedicalStaff.find( :all )
     render :xml => @rv_wrk_medical_staffs.to_xml
   end

Chris.

For the purpose of calling from a Flex HTTPService, I need to create
an XML version of the Rails-generated list() function. The original
is:

   def list
     @rv_wrk_medical_staff_pages, @rv_wrk_medical_staffs = paginate
:rv_wrk_medical_staffs, :per_page => 10
   end

I tried applying to_xml() to @rv_wrk_medical_staffs, but get the
following error message:

"Not all elements respond to to_xml"

Thanks,

Chris.

I solved the problem, by replacing the Rails-generated
"datetime_select" with "date_select" in _form.rhtml.

I have several DATE fields in several Oracle tables. Some have time
information, some don't (but same data type). Rails doesn't seem to
handle the ones that don't contain it, for editing.

For example, on "show", I'll see:

2006-02-02

and

Thu Apr 12 09:31:04 +0200 2007

in two different DATE fields. But I'll get the following error message
on "edit", regarding 2006-02-02:

private method `min' called for #<Date: 4907537/2,0,2299161>

Does anyone know how to solve this problem?

Thanks, Chris.

I'm using the Agile Web development book to learn Rails.

The book says that if I install lighttpd web server the script/server
ruby script will find it and use it instead of Webbrick.

I built and installed lighttpd but no joy when executing script/server

lighttpd runs fine if I launch it manually.

any ideas?

thanks, Scott

form....?????
please help

If you're installing Rails on a Mac OS (10.4.9 is what I'm using) and
you get this error:

dyld: NSLinkModule() error
dyld: Library not loaded: /usr/local/mysql/lib/mysql/libmysqlclient.
15.dylib
    Referenced from: /usr/local/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/mysql-2.7/lib/
mysql.bundle
    Reason: image not found
Trace/BPT trap

There's an easy quick way to fix it.  The problem is with the newer
version of mySQL the directory structure doesn't match what webrick
seems to be expecting.  It lives in /usr/local/mysql/lib instead of /
usr/local/mysql/lib/mysql.  This is easily fixed though by creating a
symbolic link from the expect (old) directory location to the newer
one used in mySQL 5.

Navigate to your mySQL installation, which should be by doing the
following:

	 nicholas$ cd /usr/local/mysql/lib

Then you'll want to become root:

	 nicholas$ sudo -s

Now you need to create the symbolic link (basically telling the
filesystem if someone is looking for /usr/local/mysql/lib/mysql to
show them the /usr/local/mysql/lib instead), then do a ls to make
sure it worked right:

	 /usr/local/mysql/lib root# ln -s /usr/local/mysql/lib mysql

	 /usr/local/mysql/lib root# ls -al
	 drwxr-xr-x   22 root  wheel      748 May 21 13:39 .

I'm trying to pass parameters into a Selenium testcase using
Test::Unit:Testcase ... would I do this with a fixture or simply pass
parameters somehow into a class I create like:

myTest = TC_LoginTest.net(param1, param2, param3, etc)

Basically I want to write 1 test that will log into an application I
made as different users and validate the outcome.  The parameters are
user name, password, profile and database.    I'm not really familiar
with fixtures (if that's what I should be using) or if I should be
passing parameters in a separate test suite file ... not sure.  Any
advice or a website you could point me to I'd appreciate it.

Nicholas



My class is below__________________________________________

require 'test/unit'
require '../selenium'

class TC_LoginTest < Test::Unit::TestCase
  include SeleniumHelper

  def setup
    @selenium = Selenium::SeleniumDriver.new("localhost", 4444,
"*iexplore", 10000);
    @selenium.start
  end

  def teardown
    @selenium.stop
  end

  def test_doLogin
      #open the special test login page that doesn't need SSL (since
Se doesn't like SSL)
      open('/myapp/utils/specialLogin.cfm')
      uncheck(name="myChkBox")
      type(name="UName", username)
      type(name="Pass", password)
      click(database)
      # after providing username and password we click the database
button we want to test and validate
      sleep 5
      assert_equal(username,get_text("userName"),["Username doesn't
match login"])
      assert_equal(profile,get_text("profileName"),["Profile name
match unexpected"])

  end

end

How can rescue_action_in_public method defined in
ApplicationController be tested locally. Have tried forcing into
production mode....but doesn't seem to work

Hi,

   While the time of executing the following regular expression pattern

Yes u need database server (eg: mysql or postgres). For webserver you can either
use the
inbuilt webrick server for developement or anyother opensource server like
Apache. I found a
few links on the web that can guide you setting up ruby on rails on a Mac

http://maczealots.com/tutorials/ruby-on-rails/
http://hivelogic.com/narrative/articles/ruby-rails-mongrel-mysql-osx (also
remember there
might more updated tutorial available so u might want to do a search before
trying this)

Ok guy i thanks your answer, a friend than already develop in ruby on the mac
also
recommended for me Locomotive app, a applicative than make all job for you. I go
use
Locomotive together with MAMP (Apache + MySQL + PHP) app, and i wait than
everything
work perfectly.

I am in the process of building out a new web 2.0 product and I need a
developer. I need this person to eventually become the Senior
Developer - CTO in my organization. The compensation for this role,
for now, will be floor level equity. Eventually, when VC money is
obtained (which is a high possibility since my current investor has a

The role will include working with the product development team and

The idea is very cool, fun, and revolutionary. You would be working

This is a new issue for me that I've never seen before. After a little
reading it looks as though I have an object in the session that is
derived(?)that Rails cannot figure out? Is the problem that I have all
the class definitions in the same model file i.e. in top_class.rb

So in essence I have:

class TopClass < ActiveRecord::Base
   acts_as_tree
     :
     :
end

class AnotherClass < Tree
     :
     :
end

class YetAnotherClass < Tree
     :
     :
end

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Howdy Dennis!

I'm afraid I don't have 2nd Ed on me, but I may be able to help you
gather some clues to your problem.  First off, try executing:

$ rake --tasks

This should list all the possible rake tasks which you can perform.
If "rake db:migrate" isn't on that list, then I suspect either Rails
didn't install correctly (are you missing ActiveRecord?), or the
"$rails depot" script didn't quite do what it was supposed to.  If you
do the following:

$ gem list --local

This should list all the different ruby libraries you have installed
on your system.  Make sure "activerecord" is on that list.  If not,
that might be part of your problem.

I hope this helps a little.

I had great luck installing jems on my laptop using the --remote

I am trying to assist a friend and CEO for a internet start up here
in San Francisco who is searching for a Senior VP of Engineering who
has both the knowledge and hands on experience with Ruby on Rails.

He has his first round of funding and a development shop who is
working on code etc. He wants a person who loves the thrill of
working on something that is cool and focused on the consumer side
of business relating to knowledge sharing.

He does not want someone as senior as a hands off CTO but more of a
person who loves to develop and code, roll their sleeves up when
need and has been working in the consumer internet space and wants
