I’m getting this problem, and I can’t fix it, any clue?

tigger:~/src/sposivip/trunk intinig$ script/generate  
extension\_controller dummy ‘admin/foo’ bar  
The name ‘admin’ is reserved by Ruby on Rails.  
Please choose an alternative and run this generator again.

Giovanni,

Try your command without the quotes on admin/foo.

That is really odd… it shouldn’t be a reserved word. I ran your  
command verbatim and can’t reproduce the error. What’s your system  
setup?

OSX 10.4, radiant was checked out a week or so ago and all the tests  
pass. Andrea F., working on the same codetree on his box (osx too)  
has the same problem.
