hi , thanks for the quick reply .

1) line 5 has the following :

#init_gettex "text_domain"

2) /var/lib/gems/1.8/gems/activesupport-2.1.0/lib/active_support/callbacks.rb:161:

def call(*args, &block)         evaluate_method(method, *args, &block) if should_run_callback?(*args)       rescue LocalJumpError

3) line 19 of config/environment.rb?

# I18n 15:require 'gettext/rails'

17:require 'calendar_date_select'

19:Rails::Initializer.run do |config|

That mostly sounds like someone has typoed init_gettext

I think the suggestion is that line 5 of application.rb that has init_gettex on it, should be init_gettext In an earlier post you showed this line commented out (with #) but presumably the error does not appear if it is commented out, likely a different error appears.

I believe you say that the app is working on a different server, check the line there to see what it is. I trust you are picking the source up from a source control system (git for example) in which case you should be able to see whether you have accidentally modified that line. If the source is not in a version control system then get that set up before you do anything and check into the VCS the version that is running on the server. Then check it out onto your system. Do not start editing it until you have got a VCS setup. That is my advice anyway.
