Upgrade problem to Rails 1.2.2 with RADRails

I upgraded to Rails 1.2.2 and my project inside of RADRails stopped working. I think I followed the steps in the upgrade process correclty. The problem occurs when accessing the first page. I get the error:

Expected ./script/../config/../app/controllers/main_controller.rb to define MainController

c:/ruby/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/activesupport-1.4.1/lib/active_support/ dependencies.rb:249:in `load_missing_constant' c:/ruby/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/activesupport-1.4.1/lib/active_support/ dependencies.rb:452:in `const_missing' c:/ruby/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/activesupport-1.4.1/lib/active_support/ dependencies.rb:464:in `const_missing' etc

Any ideas?

That looks very much like a problem we were having. In our case, as of Rails 1.2, any modules loaded from the /lib directory needed to be explicitly required in the class file doing the calling. However, I haven't seen that with a controller before. The "expected ____ to define ____" part of your error though is exactly the same thing we were seeing and a properly placed 'require' corrected it for us.

Are you using engines? If so the engine code is not ready for 1.2.2.

Well, when I've seen that "Expected blah to define Blah" error before, it's always been because I was really not defining that class in that file. Does main_controller.rb exist where it thinks it should; does that file define MainController?
