Rails 1.1 Oracle Adapter

Thursday
Mar 30,2006

FYI: If you’re running Oracle ‘oci’ adapter for Rails and you just upgraded to Rails 1.1 (ActiveRecord 1.14.0) listen up!

Are you getting messages like:

wrong number of arguments (1 for 0)

RAILS_ROOT: script/../config/..

There’s a patch in to fix it

see: http://www.ruby-forum.com/topic/59811#54488

Sweet Rails

One of the best things about my current position is all the time I’m getting to spend with Ruby and Rails. After having written 3 different web frameworks myself for internal projects, Rails is *so* freaking cool.

I just saw this on diggdot.us: Rails 1.1 updates!

One of the many things that I’m excited to play with is RJS. The default AJAX stuff was nice, but no easy to customize without having to drill into the javascript. With RJS, life just keeps getting better.

Thanks David.

I’m back - the blog is back up and now I’m coming to you live from Arizona.

My new job is with the Apollo Group (#38 in Computerworld’s Top 100 IT workplaces in the USA) doing release automation, systems admin and other sundry things.

One of the most exciting things I’ll be doing in diving head first into Ruby and Rails. I’m working on porting all our deployment scripts to Ruby (Capistrano?) and build a nice web interface using Rails. Peachy!
