This is a follow-up announcement from the 0.9 release. There are no
major changes, but this release marks a downloadable (tgz) file as
well as a promotional website, a demo application and screenshots.

Family Connection is an easy-to-setup online hub for your family that

hour or so as it propagates through the rubyforge mirrors. You can
access the subversion repository immediately at:

hassle of setting it up or maintaining it, I can set something up for
you for a small monthly charge. Contact me privately to talk about

i just downloaded the lastest have had a few errors installing:

- had to chmod -R 777 . so the photo dir could be created. standard stuff
there.

- then i was going through the config page and got this error on submit of
the first page

unable to open image `/var/www/html/public/photo/image/tmp/1136357381.296032.28535/FishRobert.jpg': No such file or directory:

that's probably because that directory doesn't exist. it's worth noting
that my setup is

out of webroot

/var/www/ror/familyconnect/
/var/www/ror/familyconnect/public
...

in webroot

/var/www/html/familyconnect -> /var/www/ror/familyconnect/public/

which is pretty standard stuff afaik. in any case the links aren't being
generated correctly under this setup - why 'public' should be in any
generated link is strange... is there something i've missed with
configuration?

regards.

I have downloaded this and set it up:

- untarred into: /home/phil/src/ror/familyconnection-1.0

- edited the database.yml file for postgres (8.0.4):

adapter: postgresql
database: family_connection
username: phil

- done: rake db_schema_import

(the tables are setup in postgres OK)

- I then ran: ruby ~phil/src/ror/familyconnection-1.0/script/server

( which seemed to work OK)

but when I try and use:

http://127.0.0.1:3000/family_connection/administrator/setup

I get:

no such file to load -- RMagick

RAILS_ROOT: /home/phil/src/ror/familyconnection-1.0/script/../config/..

Does the setup HAVE to have RMagick? It looks like a pain to install . .

Thanks,

Phil.

yes|sudo yum install '*magick*'

yes|sudo gem install RMagick
