Hello everyone,  
I’m pretty new to the RoR’s thing and am having a problem setting up  
SslRequirement plugin.

I have installed the SslRequirement plugin and added it to my  
application\_controller.rb with include SslRequirement

However, when I try and do “ssl\_required :process\_payment”  
I get the following error:

undefined method `ssl\_required’ for PaymentController:Class

For some reason it’s not seeing the ssl\_required method… any ideas??

thanks,  
nyte

go to script/console:  
p = PaymentController.new

p.public\_methods.sort

Do you see ssl\_required method in the output?

The instructions you gave bring up this error:

No there is no method by that name there… hmmmmm

Also, someone told me to add the path in the config/enviorment.rb file  
but I thought by default it loads all vendor/plugins
