Question About Using A Gem In Rails

rubyonrails-talk

I installed a gem called: Contacts

From the console this works:

Contacts.new(:hotmail, “asdasd”, “asdasd”)"

But from the controller I get “uninitialized constant FriendFindersController::Contacts” when I try to load the page? Same thing if I put the call to Contacts in the model.

Anyone have any ideas?

Have you required the gem in your environment.rb?

Probably, you just need to require the gem in your environment.rb file and restart your server.
