#nodes_controller.rb

require 'net/ping'
include Net

class NodesController < ApplicationController
  def index
    @nodes = Node.find(:all)

    @arr_stat = Array.new
    i = 0
    for node in @nodes do

      stat = PingExternal.new(node.ipadd)

      @arr_stat[i]['ipadd'] = node.ipadd
      if stat
        @arr_stat[i]['status'] = 'online';
        puts "online"
      else
        @arr_stat[i]['status'] = 'offline';
        puts "offline"
      end
    end

    respond_to do |format|
      format.html { render :html => @arr_stat }# index.html.erb
      format.xml { render :xml => @nodes }

You have a nil object when you didn't expect it!
You might have expected an instance of ActiveRecord::Base.
The error occurred while evaluating nil.[]=

I'm guessing @arr_stat[i] is nil at some point.

Also, for future reference, Rails raises that particular error quite often.
Pasting that would be like pasting "segmentation fault" to a C development
group. I'm sure the error included more information than that.

But you may want to take this to the Rails group.
