Hello, I’m having problems on both my production and development servers with fragment caching. Every time I try to cache something using \<% cache do %\>, I get the following error: Couldn’t create cache directory: views/0.0.0.0:3000/jobs/106/questions/ 174 (wrong number of arguments (2 for 1)) but strangely, all of the directories apart from the last one are created. Adding path components to generate a key makes no difference. I have no idea how to debug this, and have googled to no avail. I don’t have any caching plugins installed. environment.rb: config.action\_controller.cache\_store = :file\_store, “#{RAILS\_ROOT}/ cache” and I have perform\_caching set to true in both dev and production and I set my cache directory to 777, all to no avail. About your application’s environment Ruby version 1.8.7 (i686-darwin9.3.0) RubyGems version 1.3.3 Rails version 2.2.2 Active Record version 2.2.2 Action Pack version 2.2.2 Active Resource version 2.2.2 Action Mailer version 2.2.2 Active Support version 2.2.2 Does anyone have any idea what this could be? Any advice most gratefully received. thanks dorian ---

I’ve managed to make this work by changing the following lines in active\_support/cache/file\_store.rb - File.atomic\_write(real\_file\_path(name), cache\_path) { |f| f.write (Marshal.dump(value)) } - File.atomic\_write(real\_file\_path(name), cache\_path) { |f| Marshal.dump(value, f) } as far as I can see, it’s doing the same thing, but for some reason Marshal won’t treat f as an IOstream as I think it’s supposed to. I don’t really like changing it there though, and I’d like to know why it doesn’t work as it’s supposed to. any thoughts still welcome d
