I’m getting an exception that I’m fairless clueless about. It occurs when I run a “create” action but neither my action or before filters are hit before this exception. I’m hoping someone can give me a clue. I suspect it has to do with marshalling objects in the session - maybe TzTime is not capable of being stored in the session. I hope that’s not the case. The exception is: /!\ FAILSAFE /!\ Dec 29, 2007 02:05PM Status: 500 Internal Server Error class TzTime needs to have method `_load' /home/dsailer/aptana/workspace/OrbRuby/vendor/rails/actionpack/lib/

I’ve been thinking about changing my logic to no longer marshal any objects into the session anyway, so here’s another good reason to do it. ---

This could be a missing gem problem. Check if the gem that uses that class is installed on your system or not.
