maybe some problem in your database, try this: rake db:migrate:redo

Actually the error is related in starting server (mongreal) I don’t know  
why and how it is coming?

I’m getting the same error (tho I’m upgrading both from rails 2.0.2  
_and_ ruby from 1.8.6 to 1.9.1, mostly just for a goof).

There’s a lighthouse ticket on the error here:

[https://rails.lighthouseapp.com/projects/8994/tickets/1176-scriptserver-make-an-error-in-ruby-19-because-of-defined-methods-change](https://rails.lighthouseapp.com/projects/8994/tickets/1176-scriptserver-make-an-error-in-ruby-19-because-of-defined-methods-change)

or if that breaks:

[http://is.gd/2JMqn](http://is.gd/2JMqn)

If I read that right, this was fixed in 2.2. I’m on 2.3.3 & getting  
the error. Maybe it’s a regression?
