cant create A record

[ghost]

Hello I'm having some problem creating an A record with route53 the only example I have is with a CNAME and not sure if it works the same way but I keep getting:

var/lib/gems/1.9.1/gems/route53-0.2.1/lib/route53.rb:364:in create': undefined methodperform_actions' for "XXXmyinfoXXX":String (NoMethodError) from ./pf_zone-test.rb:22:in amazon' from ./pf_zone-test.rb:25:in

'

here is an example code strip down so you can review:

!/usr/bin/env ruby

require 'rubygems' require 'zonefile' require 'route53'

domain="mydomain.com" bindfile="named/zones/db.#{domain}" my_access_key="xxxxxxxxxxxxxx" my_secret_key="xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx"

conn = Route53::Connection.new(my_access_key,my_secret_key)

here only if we want to create a new zone, this works

new_zone = Route53::Zone.new("#{domain}",nil,conn)

resp = new_zone.create_zone

def amazon(type, record1, record2, domain) puts "#{type} #{record1} #{record2} #{domain}" new_record = Route53::DNSRecord.new("#{record1}","#{type}","600",["#{record2}"],domain ) resp = new_record.create end

amazon("A","new.mydomain.com","4.4.4.4","#{domain}")

hope you can help me on this im stuck.

Could you share your script please?did you just run the command line version of the gem? On Feb 17, 2012 9:42 PM, "Christian Fernandez" < reply@reply.github.com> wrote:

First off sorry for the long-long delay in getting to this. By now I'm sure you've found a way around this.

The error you're seeing is because the Route53::DNSRecord.new method expects a Route53::Zone object rather than a string for the last argument you can get a list of zone objects on your account via the following code and select the one that matches.

zones = conn.get_zones
zone = conn.get_zones.detect { |zone| zone.name.start_with? domain }
amazon("A","new.mydomain.com","4.4.4.4",zone)
