Rails 2.0 strangeness. Default layouts not working, methods in application controller not visible

Rails
1

Either my app has some bad config files, or some basic behaviors have
changed without any documentation.

  1. Default layouts are not being applied
  2. Helper methods in application_helper.rb not visible unless helper
    :all is set in the controller.
  3. Methods in application controller not visible in other controllers.

These things all worked fine in 1.2.x versions. What could be going on
here?

I would double check that everything in your environment.rb file is
correct since you went from an older version to a newer version. Also,
do some search from upgrading from rails 1.2 to 2.0. I bet there are a
couple of things you need to do. Also, your last option would be to
create a new rails app under the new 2.0 version and then copy over your
views, models, controllers, etc. This way you know the base files are
correct: your environment.rb, etc.
