Hi, I have a problem when I’m doing rake tasks. This behavior happens only on one machine, on another three ones all works fine (three is on ubuntu, problem one is under debian); totally identical environment (I guess). I’m using translator gem, loading through config.gem in environment.rb file. Server and script/console - works fine, this happens only when I’m doing rake tasks (in both: development and production). I’ve researched that problem for a while (6 hours since I’ve started to get this problem, and research how to fix it), and now I’m at 90% sure that the problem is in the autoload method. When I’m executing for example rake db:migrate I’m getting this exception: stacktrace: rake aborted! undefined method `translate' for class`ActionView::Base’ /opt/ruby/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/activesupport-2.3.5/lib/ active\_support/core\_ext/module/aliasing.rb:33:in `alias_method' /opt/ruby/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/activesupport-2.3.5/lib/ active_support/core_ext/module/aliasing.rb:33:in`alias\_method\_chain’ /opt/ruby/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/translator-1.0.0/lib/translator.rb: 288 /opt/ruby/lib/ruby/site\_ruby/1.8/rubygems/custom\_require.rb:31:in `gem_original_require' /opt/ruby/lib/ruby/site_ruby/1.8/rubygems/custom_require.rb:31:in`require’ /opt/ruby/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/activesupport-2.3.5/lib/ active\_support/dependencies.rb:156:in `require' /opt/ruby/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/activesupport-2.3.5/lib/ active_support/dependencies.rb:521:in`new\_constants\_in’ /opt/ruby/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/activesupport-2.3.5/lib/ active\_support/dependencies.rb:156:in `require' /opt/ruby/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/rails-2.3.5/lib/rails/ gem_dependency.rb:208:in`load’ /opt/ruby/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/rails-2.3.5/lib/initializer.rb:307:in `load_gems' /opt/ruby/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/rails-2.3.5/lib/initializer.rb:307:in`each’ /opt/ruby/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/rails-2.3.5/lib/initializer.rb:307:in `load_gems' /opt/ruby/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/rails-2.3.5/lib/initializer.rb:164:in`process’ /opt/ruby/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/rails-2.3.5/lib/initializer.rb:113:in `send' /opt/ruby/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/rails-2.3.5/lib/initializer.rb:113:in`run’ /home/deploy/somesite.com/releases/20100421143409/config/ environment.rb:5 /opt/ruby/lib/ruby/site\_ruby/1.8/rubygems/custom\_require.rb:31:in `gem_original_require' /opt/ruby/lib/ruby/site_ruby/1.8/rubygems/custom_require.rb:31:in`require’ /opt/ruby/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/activesupport-2.3.5/lib/ active\_support/dependencies.rb:156:in `require' /opt/ruby/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/activesupport-2.3.5/lib/ active_support/dependencies.rb:521:in`new\_constants\_in’ /opt/ruby/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/activesupport-2.3.5/lib/ active\_support/dependencies.rb:156:in `require' /opt/ruby/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/rails-2.3.5/lib/tasks/misc.rake:4 /opt/ruby/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/rake-0.8.7/lib/rake.rb:636:in`call’ /opt/ruby/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/rake-0.8.7/lib/rake.rb:636:in `execute' /opt/ruby/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/rake-0.8.7/lib/rake.rb:631:in`each’ /opt/ruby/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/rake-0.8.7/lib/rake.rb:631:in `execute' /opt/ruby/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/rake-0.8.7/lib/rake.rb:597:in`invoke\_with\_call\_chain’ /opt/ruby/lib/ruby/1.8/monitor.rb:242:in `synchronize' /opt/ruby/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/rake-0.8.7/lib/rake.rb:590:in`invoke\_with\_call\_chain’ /opt/ruby/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/rake-0.8.7/lib/rake.rb:607:in `invoke_prerequisites' /opt/ruby/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/rake-0.8.7/lib/rake.rb:604:in`each’ /opt/ruby/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/rake-0.8.7/lib/rake.rb:604:in `invoke_prerequisites' /opt/ruby/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/rake-0.8.7/lib/rake.rb:596:in`invoke\_with\_call\_chain’ /opt/ruby/lib/ruby/1.8/monitor.rb:242:in `synchronize' /opt/ruby/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/rake-0.8.7/lib/rake.rb:590:in`invoke\_with\_call\_chain’ /opt/ruby/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/rake-0.8.7/lib/rake.rb:607:in `invoke_prerequisites' /opt/ruby/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/rake-0.8.7/lib/rake.rb:604:in`each’ /opt/ruby/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/rake-0.8.7/lib/rake.rb:604:in `invoke_prerequisites' /opt/ruby/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/rake-0.8.7/lib/rake.rb:596:in`invoke\_with\_call\_chain’ /opt/ruby/lib/ruby/1.8/monitor.rb:242:in `synchronize' /opt/ruby/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/rake-0.8.7/lib/rake.rb:590:in`invoke\_with\_call\_chain’ /opt/ruby/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/rake-0.8.7/lib/rake.rb:583:in `invoke' /opt/ruby/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/rake-0.8.7/lib/rake.rb:2051:in`invoke\_task’ /opt/ruby/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/rake-0.8.7/lib/rake.rb:2029:in `top_level' /opt/ruby/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/rake-0.8.7/lib/rake.rb:2029:in`each’ /opt/ruby/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/rake-0.8.7/lib/rake.rb:2029:in `top_level' /opt/ruby/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/rake-0.8.7/lib/rake.rb:2068:in`standard\_exception\_handling’ /opt/ruby/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/rake-0.8.7/lib/rake.rb:2023:in `top_level' /opt/ruby/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/rake-0.8.7/lib/rake.rb:2001:in`run’ /opt/ruby/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/rake-0.8.7/lib/rake.rb:2068:in `standard_exception_handling' /opt/ruby/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/rake-0.8.7/lib/rake.rb:1998:in`run’ /opt/ruby/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/rake-0.8.7/bin/rake:31 /opt/ruby/bin/rake:19:in `load’ /opt/ruby/bin/rake:19 Please help me.
