Hi,

Hi-

I’m suddenly getting this rake error where as before I wasn’t. And nothing’s been changed. As you can see it says something about “load_missing_constant”. Is my development environment broken? Can

someone please tell me what this error means?:

It looks like your ApplicationController class might be missing. This file should be located in RAILS_ROOT/app/controller/application.rb

Does this file exist? Something in that file may point you in the right direction.
