I just updated my rails application from 2.2.2 to 2.3.2 and the following message is displayed while trying to start with ./script/ server:
[code] => Booting Mongrel => Rails 2.3.2 application starting on http://0.0.0.0:3000 /opt/local/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/activesupport-2.3.2/lib/ active_support/core_ext/module/aliasing.rb:33:in `alias_method': undefined method `valid?' for class `ActiveRecord::Base' (NameError) from /opt/local/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/activesupport-2.3.2/lib/ active_support/core_ext/module/aliasing.rb:33:in `alias_method_chain' from /opt/local/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/activerecord-2.3.2/lib/ active_record/callbacks.rb:224:in `send' from /opt/local/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/activerecord-2.3.2/lib/ active_record/callbacks.rb:224:in `included' from /opt/local/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/activerecord-2.3.2/lib/ active_record/callbacks.rb:223:in `each' from /opt/local/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/activerecord-2.3.2/lib/ active_record/callbacks.rb:223:in `included' from /opt/local/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/activerecord-2.3.2/lib/ active_record/base.rb:3143:in `include' from /opt/local/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/activerecord-2.3.2/lib/ active_record/base.rb:3143 from /opt/local/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/activerecord-2.3.2/lib/ active_record/base.rb:3137:in `class_eval' ... 11 levels... from /opt/local/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/rails-2.3.2/lib/commands/ server.rb:84 from /opt/local/lib/ruby/site_ruby/1.8/rubygems/custom_require.rb: 31:in `gem_original_require' from /opt/local/lib/ruby/site_ruby/1.8/rubygems/custom_require.rb: 31:in `require' from ./script/server:3 [/code]
I figured out that if I comment out "require 'validators.rb'" inside my environment.rb than it'll work fine. Validators.rb (http:// pastie.org/457289) handles some special validations and sits in my lib directory.
I am wondering what has changed from 2.2.2 to 2.3.2 that all the sudden this rather simple extension wouldn't work anymore.
Does any have an idea?
