i am currently writing a mailer, and running into several problems
that i have not run into before…
suddenly, rails is asking me for the following:
ActionView::ActionViewError (Due to changes in ActionMailer, you need to
provide the mailer_name along with the template name.
i have changed my my file model to look like this:
,----[ notifier ]
| class Notifier < ActionMailer::Base
| def files_expiring(user_id)
| recipients ‘[email protected]’
| bcc “[email protected]”
| from “[email protected]”
| subject “some subject”
| render :file => “notifier/expire_files”
| end
| end
`----
when i run this, everything seems to be okay, but i get the following
error:
,----[ error message ]
| >> Notifier.deliver_files_expiring(25)
| Notifier.deliver_files_expiring(25)
| TypeError: can’t dup NilClass

at this point, the view has only some text in it, no reference to any
variables…
any help would be greatly appreciated…
thanks!
