I have seen some apps that have a few rake tasks included to load data. I am not talking about seed data, I know about db/seeds.rb, instead I am referring to data such as default users and basic records that help me fill my application with something to look at. I don't want to use db:fixtures:load because I don't have any control over...

The situation: I used generate scaffold to set up my objects in a new Rails project. Besides doing some migrations, I also directly edited the MySQL tables by adding and renaming columns etc. Now I can't get tests to run because the automatically-generated fixtures do not correspond to the database schema. Perhaps they're based on the or...
Hi, I have a (rails 3) application that allows users to query for books. I have three models: query, result, book with a has_many :through relation both ways: query has many books through result and book has many queries through results When I enter a query and click OK, I get a form to create a book using the query phrase. I want th...
The Getting Started Rails Guide kind of glosses over this part since it doesn't implement the "new" action of the Comments controller. In my application, I have a book model that has many chapters: class Book < ActiveRecord::Base has_many :chapters end class Chapter < ActiveRecord::Base belongs_to :book end In my routes file: re...
I have the following code which I need to update... <% @users.each do |user| %> <tr> <td><%= link_to user.fname, user %></td> </tr> <% end %> I want to learn how to update that so instead of just showing the fname, it shows fname + lname so for a record like James Bond, it shows james bond and links it to the user in Rails. ...
My delete/destroy is not working for rails 3. Not for any scaffold or even for new projects. <%= link_to 'Destroy', card, :confirm => 'Are you sure?', :method => :delete %> From this question. Solution is Firefox reinstalation. But mine is also not working in chrome, safari or opera. Html code generated:-- <a href="/categories...
I get this strange error if I use a link_to with the :remote => true parameter in IE 6 and IE 7. IE 8 and all other browsers works just fine: If I commenting out the code for the link (jQuery binding on ajax:success), the error still appears. I don't know how to locate/track this error, because line 1529... does not exists. What is go...

If no need to migrate the data, it seems that we can just edit database.yml development: adapter: mysql database: myapp_development host: localhost username: root password: encoding: utf8 1) to use a brand new db with 0 data, just change the 3rd line to: database: myapp_development_02 and then do a rake db:create and ra...
The forms I know of are: For Rails 3.0: for rails server: rails server -e production for rails console rails console production for rake rake db:migrate RAILS_ENV=production Is that it? I know for rails runner and rails dbconsole, it is -e production as well. Are there more forms and what are other ones that use -e vs just ...
This is an honest question and I am not trolling. As a newbie to rails I've been search for good rails resources. But I've been noticing many sites that apparently were once popular now being completely abandoned. Some examples: http://www.softiesonrails.com/ - last updated Feb 2010 http://www.therailsway.com/ - last updated Aug 2009...

I started this project before Rails3beta 1. Should I have...

Hello, recently my Rails 3 app started asking for a username and password via a browser prompt when loading the home page and not signed in... <%= javascript_include_tag :all, :cache => true %> I was able to determine that it's the line above causing the issue. If I remove that it doesn't happen. Ideas? Have you seen this before ? T...
Hello, here's what I'm trying to do right.... When a user signs in and is redirect to the landing page, I want to run a bit of jquery ajax to grab and inject some content. I originally had it in my application.js file but the problem with that is that the code is there for user's that aren't logged in, which means I have to add logic to...
