ActionMailer using wrong layouts on prod box

Rails
1

Using ActionMailer, Haml and multi part emails I’m seeing very
strange behavior on one particular production box.

I’ve got:

class Notifier < ActionMailer::Base
layout ‘email’
def test
end
end

All of these files exist:
app/views/notifier/test.text.html.haml
app/views/notifier/test.text.plain.haml
app/views/layouts/email.text.html.haml
app/views/layouts/email.text.plain.haml

Both parts of this multipart email use the HTML layout. However,
each individual part uses the appropriate HTML/PLAIN template.

  1. I’ve verified this isn’t related to Rails/ActionMailer or HAML by
    creating a barebones app with this identical set up and checking to
    see if it worked (it did)
  2. If I set up a prod database on my dev box it works fine – This
    only happens in prod on my prod server… (big wtf there)

Both my dev and prod server say this:

Notifier.instance_variable_get("@inheritable_attributes")
=> {:auto_layout=>false, :master_helper_module=>#<Module:
0x2d72ac4>, :layout_conditions=>{}, :view_paths=>["/Users/jsharpe/
veloracing/app/views"], :layout=>“email”}
*Note the :layout => “email” is correct

Where else can I troubleshoot this?

Few updates to the original post:

I’ve since changed the layouts to “notifier_layout” in case there was
some conflict with “email” – as didn’t fix it (as expected)

I tested it with ERB and a barebones rails 2.3.5 app – so yea, not
Rails and not Haml’s fault

On prod Notifier.instance_variable_get("@inheritable_attributes")
[:view_paths] is slightly different but looks fine… the rest of that
hash is identical.

had the same problem, any solutions ?
