undefined method `find'

Hello,

I have an application with multiple models that works perfectly fine in both development and production.

Now I added yet another model & database table 'Cluster' - no fundamental difference to the other models I added before.

All calls to this model from the regular application on the production server such as 'Cluster.find(:last)' - or any other request that you could think of that involves Cluster or clusters - result in:

undefined method `find' for Cluster:Module

Sounds like you've got something else called Cluster that is only loaded sometimes but which shadows your model when it is loaded

Hello Fred, thanks. The only thing I could think of is the mongrel_cluster. Do you think just renaming the Cluster model
everywhere into something else could do the trick? Thanks. Justus

That's what it looks like. When running under mongrel my app has a
Cluster constant (but not under webrick) and the things in there
certainly look mongrel-related.

Dear Fred, Thanks so much for your help! That solved the problem. Justus
