Hello All,
Several of my Rails apps on a server broke all at once. Specifically, any forms that POST no longer work; NULL values are being submitted instead of the form parameters. I've checked with Firebug that the forms themselves are sending the values but the "create" action in all my controllers does not seem to be picking up the form values. I was hoping somebody could help me troubleshoot. These apps were all working at some point but just broke all of a sudden. I've asked my hosting provider if they changed anything but they claim no. Below are my environment details as well as model, view, controller and relevant development.log entries.
I appreciate any help!
