Hi,

I’ve got an app that I’ve inherited that uses Active Scaffold. I’ve  
never used it before, but am now seeing errors on a page that appear to  
point to that plugin.

The system is Ubuntu using Ruby 1.8.7. I already found a work around  
for attachment\_fu using this Ruby version. Is there something else that  
can fix this problem?

THANKS!!!

Here’s my output:

I had this same Active Scaffold problem on Ubuntu 9.04. Installing Ruby  
1.8.6 instead of the default 1.8.7 was the key. I followed the  
instructions in this link:
