I’m trying to install the paperclipped fork from Spanner (which  
searching around I found may be necessary for the Library extension)  
but whenever I run I get the following error

rake aborted!  
Object is not missing constant Asset!

and it occurs here  
…test\_app/vendor/extensions/paperclipped/app/models/asset\_type.rb:  
17:in `initialize’

Anyone have any ideas on how I can get this running or to get the  
Library extension working with a previous version?

That’s a generic failure-to-load error. I don’t know why it’s happening,  
though. I have that combination in use in many places. Which version of  
radiant and what rake task are you trying to run?

It’s very likely that the forked paperclipped requires edge radiant,  
btw.

will

Radiant 0.9.1

Ran git clone to v/extensions then  
rake production radiant:extensions:paperclipped:migrate  
rake production radiant:extensions:paperclipped:update

I ended up switching to the non-forked version and updating the  
paperclipped\_taggable extension to suit my needs. I forked it and msg’d  
you about it.

Thanks!
