I’ve been developing new application on local machine in rails 1.1.1. Hosting provider (godaddy) is at rails 1.0.0 and not upgrading any time soon I’m told. I set “RAILS\_GEM\_VERSION = ‘1.0.0’” in my environment.rb file to get past inital errors, but now I’m getting the following error: /usr/local/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/rails-1.0.0/lib/initializer.rb:256:in `send': undefined method`cache\_template\_extensions=’ for ActionView::Base:Class (NoMethodError) Is there any way around this (short of changing hosting providers)? Is there any way for me to config my local development environment to avoid 1.1.1 \> 1.0.0 migration issues? many thanks. ---

Why don’t you put rails 1.1.1 into the vendor directory ? ---

Thanks Daniel. I had kind of gotten there through research after previous post, except the commands I’ve tried are “rake freeze\_edge” and “rake freeze\_gems”. Are there substantive differences between your version of the command and mine? c. ---

In Rails 1.1, rake tasks were given new, namespaced names for better organization and easier tool integration. freeze\_gems became rails:freeze:gems. Cayce B. wrote: > Thanks Daniel.

Progress has been made, but still having trouble with this… I performed a rails upgrade locally and did a “rake rails:freeze:edge” before uploading my app to host. As can be seen in log snippet below, I’m getting everything started from my vendor/plugins/rails version (fcgi\_handler.rb, dispatcher.rb), but when it gets to an ActiveRecord call, it’s calling the host gem version 1.13.2 instead of the 1.14.2 version frozen in vendor/plugins/rails/activerecord. Can anyone shed some light on this? Do I need to run “rake rails:freeze:gems” in addition to “rake rails:freeze:edge” before uploading? Thanks. c.
