railscoder Member since 12 Jul 18:32 0 posts	i get into a very strange infinite loop when searching for users photos with a URL like “http://localhost:3000/users/1/photos” it just starts looping infinitely through these three selects: [4;36;1mSQL (0.000000)←[0m ←[0;1mSELECT count() AS count_all FROM photos W ERE (photos.user_id = 1) ←[0m [4;35;1mPhoto Load (0.000000)←[0m ←[0mSELECT FROM photos WHERE (photos.us r_id = 1) ORDER BY created_at DESC LIMIT 0, 9←[0m [4;36;1mUser Load (0.000000)←[0m ←[0;1mSELECT * FROM users WHERE (users.`id = 1) ←[0m any ideas?
railscoder Member since 12 Jul 18:32 0 posts	Oh, that feedback i get comes from a rails console where i start the server with ruby script/server. After uploading a photo, it redirects me to http://localhost:3000/users/1/photos and thats the end
railscoder Member since 12 Jul 18:32 0 posts	i found the error. in line 11 in user_photos_controller.rb, there is a comment: it says format.html # index.rhtml now if you take out the ’#’ you will get yourself a nice infinite loop. sounds quite logic doesnt it? calling the index method from within the index method? beware of stupid people, the’re very inventive!
