I have a rails application that is using attachment_fu. Currently, it is using :file_system for storage, but I want to change it to :s3, to allow for better scaling as more files get uploaded. What is involved with this? I imagine that if I just switch the code to use :s3, all the old links will be broken. Do I need to just copy the e...

I'm looking for effective strategies to handle large file uploads (between 10 and 40 mbs) effectively with Ruby on Rails. Ideally I'd like to implement a progress meter and some sort of notification when the transfer is complete.

We have a ton of non-user data: 500 product types that haven't changed in 20 years, 200GB of geospatial data that never changes (Queens is always 40.73N/73.82W)... etc. It's the same in Development and Production. It should be the same in Test, but the during testing Rails empties all of the test tables, and it takes a ton of time to r...

I started my first Rails application last fall and had to put in on the shelf for a few months when paying work sucked up all of my time. I'm now interested in getting back to the project and reading through the code to figure out where I left off. The fact that Rails dynamically creates model attributes at runtime saves a lot of repet...
I have a model that uses after_update to log changes. There is a case where I would like to make a change to the model without activating this logging mechanism. Is there a way to pass in a parameter to after_update, or skip it all together? I would like a nice solution to this, and am willing to remove after_update if there is a better...
In the application there is a default report the user see's listing all the calls for a certain phone. However, the user can select a date range to sort the list from. Doing that, everything works correctly, but when the user selects the date range and changes to the second page, the date-range is lost and it goes back to the default vie...

So I'm jumping into Ruby on Rails with Agile Web Development with Rails. I got to the part where you use: <%= link_to (image_tag(product.image_url), {:action => :add_to_cart, :id => product}, :method => :post) %> In an attempt to be RESTful, Rails kicks out this inline javascript on each anchor tag onclick="var f = document.createEl...
This has been addressed some time ago, but I've not had any luck following the steps outlined or advice suggested. Here's my situation: I've installed SQL Server '05 and have another (non-Ruby) application utilizing it successfully. I've got Rails up and running successfully (but only for MySQL.) I've installed the Rails sqlserver adap...

Hi, How would I go about running two separate Rails applications using Phusion Passenger with one using Ruby 1.8.x and the other using Ruby 1.9.x ? I'm running Redmine which isn't Ruby 1.9.x compatible, and the other application is a home grown app. I'm using Apache 2.2.x with Passenger 2.2.4. Is this even possible ? ...
I have a Ruby on Rails app that has a scheduled job I execute using cron and script/runner. The purpose of the job is to find any updates that are past due ('stale', see below) and (after executing the job) update the 'due date' of the job a pre-defined number of minutes into the future. The problem I'm having is that when I set the 'd...
