rake abort 'const_missing' occurs if I have DATE_FORMATS set in environment.rb???

Hi,

I get the following error when I add a default DATE_FORMATS to my environments.rb file? Any suggestions? The entry works fine, it’s just when I go to run “rake db:migrate:reset”.

------------addition to environment.rb--------------------------

ActiveSupport::CoreExtensions::Time::Conversions::DATE_FORMATS.merge!(

:default => ‘%d/%m/%Y’,

:date_time12 => “%d/%m/%Y %I:%M%p”,

:date_time24 => “%d/%m/%Y %H:%M”

)

------------ error -------------------------------------

Macintosh:myEquity greg$ rake db:migrate:reset --trace

(in /Volumes/USBOPEN/myEquity)

** Invoke db:migrate:reset (first_time)

** Invoke db:drop (first_time)

** Invoke environment (first_time)

** Execute environment

rake aborted!
