    I am experiencing this bug, too.

    I found it after I noticed that some of my reporting, which groups records by date, was returning erroneous results. PostgreSQL...

5194 ActiveRecord Beta 4 does not understand most postgres data types was updated in Ruby on Rails
  • Steve Madsen
    Steve Madsen commented at 3:22 AM

    This ticket sounds very similar to #4270.

    Rails 3.0 RC is unable to save models that make use of Postgres custom data types. Reading is fine; columns with a cus...

4270 Arel 0.3.2 broke non-standard column types was updated in Ruby on Rails
  • Steve Madsen
    • State changed from resolved to incomplete
    by Steve Madsen at 4:04 AM

    Adding to the chorus, I see the same behavior with a column of type "earth", from the earthdistance contrib module. I don't actually care about updating this co...

2279 render :layout with block and multiple yields renders twice was updated in Ruby on Rails
  • Steve Madsen
    • Tag changed from content_for, layout, render, yield to 2.3.5, content_for, layout, render, yield
    by Steve Madsen at 3:03 AM

2423 Rendering Text with a Proc fails in testing was updated in Ruby on Rails
  • Steve Madsen
    Steve Madsen commented at 8:57 PM

    Minor change to my previous patch. That one caused problems for Mocha expectations because it allowed the proc to be called more than once.

    • Tag changed from 2.3.2, actionpack, action_controller, test_process to 2.3.4, actionpack, action_controller, test_process
    by Steve Madsen at 8:53 PM

    I can confirm that this problem still exists in 2.3.4, although this patch doesn't fix it for me because it only triggers the call to the proc due to assert_sel...

2287 2.3.2 sessions creating multiple session table entries was updated in Ruby on Rails
  • Steve Madsen
    Steve Madsen commented at 7:13 PM

    This may have something to do with upgrading a 2.2 app to 2.3. I created a brand-new 2.3 app in an attempt to create an isolated example showing the bug, and ca...

  • Steve Madsen
    Steve Madsen commented at 3:51 PM

    Hi, Pratik. I just looked at this again, on branch origin/2-3-stable. Without my patch to http_authentication.rb, the new test case still fails for me and passe...

2490 HTTP Digest auth uses wrong request method for PUT, DELETE was created in Ruby on Rails
  • Steve Madsen
    Steve Madsen created the ticket at 7:46 PM

    Browsers do not support the PUT or DELETE methods, so the _method parameter is used in forms to simulate these. The browser submits the form using POST.

    The pro...

  • Steve Madsen
    Steve Madsen commented at 7:01 PM

    As part of my sign-in process, once I know I have a good username/password combination, I call reset_session before putting anything in it. I added this long ag...
