Typo keeps crashing

Ruby Apps Typo

I’m not sure what’s happening, I’ve checked the mongrel.log and the
production.log to no avail (no error messages show). All I get is this
strange Rails Application Error.

This is the second time it has happened, any ideas on how to track this
down?

For me, I narrowed it down to SQLite and switched to MySQL and haven’t
had that problem since.

Ahh, interesting. Definitely something I’ll look into. Did it speed up
as well?

try running this on your mysql typo database in MySQL.

update contents set whiteboard = NULL;

Thanks Steve, that did the trick!

Ok, I followed the instructions (along with the script you provided)
and while I can update entries through the admin interface I am now
getting the “Application error (Rails)” page.

Here is the line (I think) that is having the problem:
Rendering layoutfalseactionerror within
…/…/themes/azure/layouts/default
Rendering articles/error

Processing Base#index (for 68.107.140.15 at 2006-12-10 18:30:08) [GET]
Parameters: {“action”=>“index”, “controller”=>“articles”}

ActionView::TemplateError (private method `select’ called for
0:Fixnum) on line #5 of themes/azure/layouts/default.rhtml:
2:
3:
4: <%=h page_title %>
5: <%= page_header %>
6: <%= stylesheet_link_tag “/stylesheets/theme/azure”, :media => ‘all’
%>
7: <%= stylesheet_link_tag “/stylesheets/user-styles”, :media => ‘all’
%>
8: <%= stylesheet_link_tag “/stylesheets/theme/print”, :media =>
‘print’ %>

Any help is greatly appreciated.
