not sure on this, it could be a number of things. establish_connection
is
a class method used by Active Record to establish a connection between
your
application and the database, using the information you provide in
config/database.yml. By default, it’s called whenever rails is
invoked,
even though it really has nothing to do with precompiling assets.
Usually,
when it throws an error, there’s an error somewhere in the database.yml
file, but this error almost looks like it’s missing the definition for
the
ActiveRecord class.

It’s going to be hard to pinpoint this error without more information.
What version of rails are you running and in your config/application.rb
file do you have the line require ‘rails/all’ ?

Do you get the same error when you start the server or run rake
db:migrate for example?

I solved this by specifying the version of my gem ‘newrelic_rpm’ .I
still
can’t figure out why I had to do so to solve my issue.

Thanks, this worked for me by giving this line in gemfile -

‘gem ‘newrelic_rpm’ , “3.5.4.33”’
