Not sure why I’m getting this error, cause I believe it worked yesterday before I quit and now it’s giving me this error. The last thing I did was try and get an ActionMailer thing to work. I searched through the archives but nothing seemed applicable to my error. Here’s the error I’m getting: ruby script/server =\> Booting Mongrel (use ‘script/server webrick’ to force WEBrick) =\> Rails 2.1.0 application starting on [http://0.0.0.0:3000](http://0.0.0.0:3000) =\> Call with -d to detach =\> Ctrl-C to shutdown server \*\* Starting Mongrel listening at 0.0.0.0:3000 \*\* Starting Rails with development environment… Exiting C:/Ruby/ruby/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/activesupport-2.1.0/lib/ active\_support/depen dencies.rb:492:in `const_missing': uninitialized constant CGI::Session::ActiveRe cordStore (NameError) from C:/Ruby/ruby/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/actionpack-2.1.0/lib/ action_con troller/session_management.rb:26:in `const\_get’ from C:/Ruby/ruby/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/actionpack-2.1.0/lib/ action\_con troller/session\_management.rb:26:in `session_store=' from C:/Ruby/ruby/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/rails-2.1.0/lib/ initializer.rb: 455:in `send’ from C:/Ruby/ruby/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/rails-2.1.0/lib/ initializer.rb: 455:in `initialize_framework_settings' from C:/Ruby/ruby/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/rails-2.1.0/lib/ initializer.rb: 454:in `each’ from C:/Ruby/ruby/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/rails-2.1.0/lib/ initializer.rb: 454:in `initialize_framework_settings' from C:/Ruby/ruby/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/rails-2.1.0/lib/ initializer.rb: 451:in `each’ from C:/Ruby/ruby/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/rails-2.1.0/lib/ initializer.rb: 451:in `initialize_framework_settings' ... 30 levels... from C:/Ruby/ruby/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/rails-2.1.0/lib/ commands/server .rb:39 from C:/Ruby/ruby/lib/ruby/site_ruby/1.8/rubygems/ custom_require.rb:27:i n `gem\_original\_require’ from C:/Ruby/ruby/lib/ruby/site\_ruby/1.8/rubygems/ custom\_require.rb:27:i n `require’ from script/server:3 * * * I haven’t touched anything in those directories, so I’m not entirely sure why it’s doing that.

Looks like something to do with the session settings in environment.rb Fred ---

Oh. Well, now that makes a lot more sense. I’ll try that and get back to you. On Jul 8, 12:16 pm, Frederick C. [removed\_email\_address@domain.invalid](mailto:removed_email_address@domain.invalid) ---

No you haven’t: you’re removing active\_record, active\_resource, action\_mailer from the list of frameworks to load Fred ---

That seemed to work. I’m not sure why it did, cause I never messed with the config.framework thing before… not that i recall anyway. Thanks Fred. -Camel On Jul 8, 12:16 pm, Frederick C. [removed\_email\_address@domain.invalid](mailto:removed_email_address@domain.invalid)
