You might get this error if youâ€™re using Rails Edge:  
config.breakpoint\_server has been deprecated and has no effect:

To fix the error we need to remove the following from  
config/environments/development.rb:

1 config.breakpoint\_server = true

Next install ruby-debug:

1 gem install ruby-debug

Then add this to the end of config/environments/development.rb:

1 require ‘ruby-debug’

Next, start your server, and the error should be goneâ€¦

To debug your code just add a call to debugger:

1 class MySillySpace …  
2 def create  
3 debugger # add this line  
4 end
