Upgraded to Rails 2.2.0 -- bringing up Mongrel now fails

Installing Rails 2.2

I was running • Rails 2 (ver. 2.0.2, I think) • Gem (ver. 1.0.1)

I upgraded to 2.2 with the following commands: gem update –system cd’d to the ruby-container directory gem install rails rails –v (yielded: 2.2.0) setenv -m rails_gem_version 2.2 (set the machine’s “rails_gem_version” to 2.2) echo %rails_gem_version% (yielded: 2.2)

I had a partial app I created under Rails 2 working. (Rails 2.0.2, I think).

Today, I ran: K:\_Projects\Ruby\_Rails_Apps\Payroll>ruby script/server

I got: => Booting Mongrel (use 'script/server webrick' to force WEBrick) => Rails 2.2.0 application starting on http://0.0.0.0:3000 => Call with -d to detach => Ctrl-C to shutdown server ** Starting Mongrel listening at 0.0.0.0:3000 ** Starting Rails with development environment... Exiting K:/_Utilities/ruby186-26_rc2/ruby/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/rails-2.2.0/ lib/initializer.rb:514:in `send': undefined method `cache_template_extensions='

Possible mistakes I can think of: 1. I installed Rails 2.2 instead of merely updating the existing Rails 2.0.2 2. gen –v produces 1.3.1 --- I don’t know if that’s a problem 3. I created a machine’s environment variable “rails_gem_version” and set it to 2.2 4. I change config/environment.rb alternately from RAILS_GEM_VERSION = '2.0.2' unless defined? RAILS_GEM_VERSION to: -- RAILS_GEM_VERSION = '2.2' unless defined? RAILS_GEM_VERSION -- RAILS_GEM_VERSION = '2.2' -- RAILS_GEM_VERSION = '2.2.0'

Thanks in advance for any ideas on what the problem may be, Richard

cache_template_extensions was a deprecated setting and has since been
removed.

Hi Freddy and Frederick,

Thanks for you responses. I see from the Github site that cache_template_extensions has been deprecated.

An exhaustive search of rb/erb/rhtml files in my Ruby/Rails directory reveals that "cache_template_extensions" appears only in the non-2.2 versions of some Rails components.

A search of my old Payroll app, now renamed to Payroll-1, showed only one instance of "cache_template_extensions" containment in Payroll-1\config\environments\development.rb. Sounds like that's my culprit. I commented it out.

Things are back to normal. I wonder if I should expect any more surprises. Perhaps I should start from scratch with Rail 2.2.

Again thanks to both of you for your help.

Best wishes, Richard
