Only get, head, post, put, and delete requests are allowed.

I got this error when I have to upgrade one old project from rails 1.2.5 to rails 2.1 (the problem is not in rails)

ActionController::MethodNotAllowed

Only get, head, post, put, and delete requests are allowed.

The exception:

ActionController::MethodNotAllowed (Only get, head, post, put, and delete requests are allowed.):
    /usr/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/actionpack-2.1.0/lib/action_controller/routing/recognition_optimisation.rb:65:in `recognize_path'
    /usr/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/actionpack-2.1.0/lib/action_controller/routing/route_set.rb:384:in `recognize'

I got this error only when I access URL’s with param like

http://127.0.0.1:3000/dod/images/show_big_image/1639

I found that the problem was in the :id because without the :id the method was called correctly

This means that there is something with the routes.

Not working routes.rb: ….

  map.connect '', :controller => 'auth'

  # Install the default route as the lowest priority.
  map.connect ':controller/:action/:id'
  map.connect ':controller/:action/:sort_key/:sort_order'

it will work if you swap the last two lines….

  map.connect '', :controller => 'auth'

  # Install the default route as the lowest priority.
  map.connect ':controller/:action/:sort_key/:sort_order'
  map.connect ':controller/:action/:id'

It seems that it does reading the comments in the routes.rb is usefull. There is written:

# Install the default route as the lowest priority.

This error also occurs if you haven't restart your webserver. I know that there is no need to restart it but its true, try restarting and check.

Upgrading Rails

Here is nice tutorial how to move your project from rails 1.2.x to 2.0

  • upgrade the gems: http://wiki.rubyonrails.org/rails/pages/HowtoUpgrade
    • gem update --system
  • http://macournoyer.wordpress.com/2007/10/28/moving-to-rails-20/
    • nice task to find the deprecated elements: “rake -T deprecated”, 10x!

Gentoo Cheatsheet

Java install

ls /usr/portage/dev-java/sun-jdk/
emerge -av =dev-java/sun-jdk-1.5.0.13
java-config -L
java-config -S 1
/usr/sbin/env-update && source /etc/profile

Emerge and Equery

Taken from here

emerge brings in new packages. equery looks at the package database.

update repository:
emerge –sync
install package with query
emrge -av sun-jdk
start with this software
emerge links wget htop
emerge …
manipulate package database
emerge -NDtu world
–update packages and packages that depend on updated packages (–deep) in the world list. Give output in –tree format. Consider packages changed if their USE flags have changed (–newuse, -N) Add –pretend (-p) to just see what it will do first.
emerge –skipfirst …
skip first pkg on a rebuild; very useful if something doesn’t work
equery …
query package database
equary belongs
who owns these files?
equery list
list packages on system

Maintenance

Taken from here

Do this whenever you want a steaming pile of fresh packages.

# emerge --sync
# emerge --update system
# etc-update
if necessary
# emerge --update world

I have seen Meddle to do it this way

emerge –newuse –deep –update world
emerge –ask –verbose coreutils
emerge –resume

Fix the mktemp / coreutils block in Gentoo

Looks like mktemp is now provided by coreutils. No wonder. This block has been bugging me (read: I’ve been ignoring it) for months.

To fix just unmerge mktemp and update coreutils.

Update: Same for the setarch / util-linux block should you come across it. Unmerge setarch.

CSS Tricks

.clearfix

<div style=”clear: both”> – do you remember this? I hate it.

The people has found a solution for this.

http://www.positioniseverything.net/easyclearing.html

.clearfix:after {
content: ".";
display: block;
height: 0;
clear: both;
visibility: hidden;
}

.clearfix {display: inline-block;}

/* Hides from IE-mac \*/
* html .clearfix {height: 1%;}
.clearfix {display: block;}
/* End hide from IE-mac */

PNG Patch for IE

Since IE6 doesn’t render PNG-24 properly, the following hack is required in order to display the transparent PNG (add anywhere in between the <head> tag):

<!--[if lt IE 7]>

<style>
h1 span {
  background: none;
  filter: progid:DXImageTransform.Microsoft.AlphaImageLoader(src='gradient.png', sizingMethod='scale');
}
</style>

  • Next I will try this one it has an rsync server – nice…but it wants cygwin…maybe next time.
  • DeltaCopy Seems like a good match, but i cant just run the rsync that is in the zip file, you must setup some local servers etc.

Full Text search with MySQL

Goodbye MySQL

I was optimistic that I could make http://www.cenite.com, a price monitoring website to use the fulltext search of mysql. Unfortuntly I have found so many drawbacks that I have to leave this idea. The main source for information for me was:

http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.0/en/fulltext-search.html

http://devzone.zend.com/node/view/id/1304#Heading14

At first the speed was wonderfull. I was searching in 300k> records apx. 350mb. But then I have to surrender. I cant configure mysql to work as I want. I know that If I spend two days to become expert on C/C++ with Unicode I will success but this is not the case. I want working solution.

The resons that make me not to use mysql for searching:

There is no way to change the default operator by default it is OR. You must parse the user query and rewrite it.

I want automaticaly truncation on all my terms.

There is no way to tell MySQL what are characters, and what are not…..sorry, there are two ways:

1. Touching the sources,

2. Configuring in xmls

No documentation on both. Maybe there is …somewhere.

If you use the default configuration then you will wonder how you get or not get the required results.

Here is a summary of the comands that I use to tweak my mysql server:

SHOW VARIABLES LIKE ‘ft%’
SET @global.ft_min_word_len=2;
SET @local.ft_min_word_len=2;

But it is better to have those options in my.conf
[mysqld]
ft_min_word_len=3
ft_stopword_file=”C:\MySQL\stop.txt”

[myisamchk]
ft_min_word_len=3
ft_stopword_file=”C:\MySQL\stop.txt”

To check what characterset is using your mysql:

SHOW VARIABLES LIKE ‘character_sets_dir’;

/usr/share/mysql/charsets | E:MySQL Server 5.1sharecharsets

SHOW VARIABLES LIKE ‘characte%’
After that you need to rebuild your index with one of those commands
slow: REPAIR TABLE products QUICK;
slow: myisamchk –recover –ft_min_word_len=3 tbl_name.MYI
fastest: DROP INDEX …; CREATE INDEX….;
