Hi friends , I am modifying virtualX open source application. I wanted to introduce new functionality that is uploading questions from .csv file and storing those questions to the database. I am very new to ruby this task becomes very tough for me . So i referred so many websites and blogs and i ready some code for this feature . but this is code is not working . I am getting HTTP 500 error . As i checked code in Aptanan Studio , it is showing some errors.

In future, please also post the errors; since this isn't all the code in your application we can't run it to see what happens, and are relying on you to tell us.
 
I am posting my code over here . Please help me friends . I am really not getting what is happening .

I am using Ruby  1.8.7
Rails 3.0.3


 
questions_controller.rb

def import
   
   
@question = Question.new
   
@question.import(params[:file])

You've defined the import method below as a class method (`def self.import`) but are attempting to call an instance method here on `@question`.

The two lines above should likely be:

Question.import(params[:file])

 
    redirect_to root_url, notice: "Questions imported succefully."
 
end

questions.rb

def self.import(file)
CSV
.foreach(file.path, headers: true) do |row|

question_hash
= row.to_hash
@question = Question.where(id: question_hash["id"])


Double-check your source file: the line you've pasted here has slant-quotes (" and ") which are not the same thing to Ruby as a straight double-quote ("). It's also possible that these were adding while composing the email.

 
if @question.count == 1
@question.first.update_attributes(question_hash)
else
Question.save!(question_hash)


What is the intent of this line? Are there situations where you can have multiple `Question` records with the same ID? There is not a class method called `save!` built into ActiveRecord.
