I keep getting the following error when I deploy to mongrel:

Expected C:/muforum/rforum/app/models/forum.rb to define Forum  
RAILS\_ROOT: C:/muforum/rforum

Has anyone experienced this while setting up the project?

I have tried freezing my rails version and reviewed the log file.

I am up all night on this one problem and pressed to complete the work.

I resolved this issue by correcting my Rails version to 1.2.3
