i have deployed my app with capistrano and everything works fine .. apart from that my application does not load my classes somehow. i am trying to figure out the problem for couple of days now but i have no clou ... on dev environment everything is working fine. i really appreciate every help cause i am stuck..

setup: rails 2.0.1 (with rails 1.2.6 the same happend) mongrel cluster ubuntu linux

here is the error i get

NameError in Home#index

Showing layouts/default.rhtml where line #24 raised:

uninitialized constant ActionView::Base::CompiledTemplates::Q2

Where is Q2 defined ?

Q2 is my own class located in /app/models/Q2.rb

the content of it is

class Q2 COUNTRIES = {    'AT' => 'Österreich',    'DE' => 'Deutschland',    'CH' => 'Schweiz' } end

on my development machine this class is loaded fine. everything is
fine on the development machine ... i have no clue how to find this bug. i owe you a beer for your help :wink:

Change your filename to q2.rb I'll bet a beer that your development machine has a non case sensitive
filesystem whereas your servers do have case sensitive filesystems

hey fred i do really owe you a beer or even two!!!!! it works .. thanks a lot for spending your time with this ...

conclusion: all my files should be lower case?

As far as the rails conventions go, it's lowercase all the way Fred
