Hello:

I am working through the 2nd Edition of the agile book (after watching  
the  
first edition age on my shelf for 6 months), and am having a problem  
with  
the newly created ‘store’

I’ve checked the files and fucntions that I’ve written, namely:  
model/product find\_products\_for\_sale  
controller/store index  
views/store/index.rhtml

and they all seem to have end’s in the right place, as was hinted at in  
an  
earlier post. I have also not seen anything in the Errata on the  
Pragmatic Website.

The specific error I’m receiving is:

Browser:  
Application error  
Change this error message for exceptions thrown outside of an action  
(like in Dispatcher setups or broken Ruby code) in public/500.html

Webrick Log:

Nothing really. (besides the 500)

127.0.0.1 - - [27/Jul/2006:16:05:11 EDT] “GET /store HTTP/1.1” 500 309

- -\> /store

Any ideas on where to go from here?

Thanks,  
Joe

Have you tried downloading the code from the book’s site and  
comparing it with yours?

I’m having trouble getting the paypal/rails stuff from the  
[dist.leetsoft.com](http://dist.leetsoft.com) site : [http://dist.leetsoft.com/api/paypal/](http://dist.leetsoft.com/api/paypal/)

Is this site down or is there a mirror?

Also does anyone know of any good RoR paypal guides/tutorials?

Thanks,

Rob
