Trying to Upgrade from Rails 1.2 to 2.1

Hey, I’m trying to upgrade my rails projects that use engines to Rails
2.1.

Currently I am stuck at:
c:/dev/ruby/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/rails-2.1.0/lib/rails/plugin/loader.rb:145:in
`ensure_all_registered_plugins_are_loaded!’: Could not locate the
following plugins: engines (LoadError)

There doesn’t seem to be any current or available documentation on how
to create your own plugin anymore.

I grabbed the code from github’s zip.

Here is a snip from my environment.rb:

automatically set the RAILS_APP variable from the dirname

RAILS_APP = File.basename(File.expand_path(File.dirname(’…’))) unless (
defined?(RAILS_APP) and !RAILS_APP.nil? and RAILS_APP != “”)

Bootstrap the Rails environment, frameworks, and default configuration

require File.join(File.dirname(FILE), ‘boot’)

require File.join(File.dirname(FILE),
‘…/…/…/…/vendor/plugins/engines/boot’)

Rails::Initializer.run do |config|
config.action_controller.session_store = :active_record_store

config.plugins = [“engines”, “extended_fragment_cache”, “interact”,

“*”]
end

Note: I have extra …/…/…/… in the engines boot line because all of
my environment.rb, boot.rb, and other config is located in my engine
plugin, using load/eval (and ability to override in the main config) so
every time something changes in Rails I just need to change it in one
place.

My engine plugin (interact) has the following init.rb:
require ‘interact’

require_dependency ‘interact’ # also tried this

What am I missing, or did something change in Rails Engines 2.X that
doesn’t like config files being relocated?

Thanks!

Hmm, seems like my plugin’s environment.rb is getting called over and
over. Maybe there is some new magic that automatically loads plugin
environment.rb’s from engines/plugins? Doesn’t appear to even make it
to my \config\environment.rb anymore.

Durr… Ignore me. I needed to update my plugin’s new boot.rb with the
additional …/…/… to get back up to the real RAILS_ROOT
