Read the error and have a look at the line pointed to. Something there
is nil.
Look in development.log and check that the parameters passed are
correct.
Have a look at the Rails Guide on debugging to see how to debug your
code to find the problem.

You look to have an object issue with “:subject”
<%= in_place_editor_field :subject, :credit_hour %>

Have you tried this in your controller
@subject = Subject.new
then in your view
<%= in_place_editor_field @subject, :credit_hour %>

Also this is deprecated in Rails 2.0:
http://apidock.com/rails/ActionView/Helpers/JavaScriptMacrosHelper/in_place_editor_field
DEPRECATION WARNING: This method will become a separate plugin when
Rails 2.0 ships.

I suggest the best_in_place plugin in place of in_place_editor.

does best_in_place will work in rails 2.3.8

I solved the issue,

now I am working on a maintenance project which is in rails 2.3.8. And
this issue ate a lot of my time

In the view

Change the view to have an instance variable

<% @batch = batch %>
<%= in_place_editor_field :batch, ‘priority’ %>
