I’m getting a “undefined method `find’ for Status:Class” whenever I  
install Radiant (either through the gem or an svn co) and then launch  
through Locomotive.

This happens when loading the “home page” of the Simple Blog or the  
Empty website. If I launch the server directly without Locomotive  
running everything works as expected.

Any ideas? I did see messages about this error in July but never saw  
a resolution nor did it appear at that time to be related to  
Locomotive ([http://lists.radiantcms.org/pipermail/radiant/2006-July/](http://lists.radiantcms.org/pipermail/radiant/2006-July/)  
000881.html)

I’ve confirm the presence of models/status.rb, etc. It seems to be  
some sort of path issue related to the Radiant configuration and  
Locomotive settings…

Help?

Hi Loren,

I have also had a similar problem since upgrading Locomotive over the  
weekend…  
I’m not sure what the exact problem is, but it seems to have something  
to do with the default server in Locomotive being changed to Mongrel  
instead of Lighttpd…  
I got around the problem by putting ‘server: lighttpd’ in the  
config/locomotive.yml (?) file, making it use Lighttpd instead of  
Mongrel…

if anyone can shed some light on why the error is occurring in the  
first place, I would also be grateful…

Cheers,

Michael

Great tip, that fixes it for now and I too would like to know why  
it’s not working under Mongrel. Hmmm

Cheers to you,

Loren
