I have an existing Ruby application built on Rails 1.2.3.
I'm trying to find an environment with an IDE that I can use to
upgrade the application to a newer version.
1. I chose RadRails, which at the moment requires Ruby 1.8, so I
installed 1.8.6-i386-mingw32.
On top of that I added Rails 2.3.5, expecting that would be the best
target version.
I removed the requirement for the app to run against 1.2.3 from the
environment.rb file and ran the server.
After fixing a couple of initial incompatibilities in the environments
files, I get this error when I try to render the default view:
<%= text_field_tag 'login' %>
wrong number of arguments (2 for 1)
C:/Ruby/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/actionpack-2.3.5/lib/action_view/
helpers/tag_helper.rb:41:in `tag_options'
C:/Ruby/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/actionpack-2.3.5/lib/action_view/
helpers/tag_helper.rb:41:in `tag'
C:/Ruby/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/actionpack-2.3.5/lib/action_view/
helpers/form_tag_helper.rb:115:in `text_field_tag'
Digging around, I found that the error seems to be *inside Rails*.
2. Instead I decided to install Rails 1.2.3 and see if it would work
with Ruby 1.8.6.
I added back in the RAILS_GEM_VERSION line in the environment.rb file
and tried again, this time getting:
C:/Ruby/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/rails-1.2.3/lib/initializer.rb:328:in
`send': und
efined method `session=' for ActionController::Base:Class
(NoMethodError)
during the initialization.
Perhaps a compatibility issue between the version of Mongrel I have
installed and Rails 1.2.3? Just a shot in the dark.
Any help would be appreciated!
