Model method_missing error (rforum)

Rails
1

I’m attempting to get rforum working. I pulled it from the subversion
repository.
Everything works fine until I attempt to make a post.

I get the following error.
c:/apps/ruby/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/activerecord-1.13.2/lib/active_record/base.rb:1498:in
method_missing' #{RAILS_ROOT}/app/controllers/topic_controller.rb:80:innew’
c:/apps/ruby/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/actionpack-1.11.2/lib/action_controller/base.rb:853:in
send' c:/apps/ruby/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/actionpack-1.11.2/lib/action_controller/base.rb:853:inperform_action_without_filters’The code in topic_controller def new
…
else @post = Post.new breakpoint–> @post.author = @user
end endThe author method isn’t found in the model post.rbYet it is
there.
So I go into breakpoint and examine the methods on Post and the @post
instance, and find the only ones defined are the ones done with the
Rails
meta magic,like has_many, belongs_to?I examine the @forums instance and
it
has methods.What would cause rails to load post.rb and miss all the
methods?–J Lambert

Sorry about the fancy outlook munged post.
Problem solved.
Removed SearchFerret from RForum site configuration and all is well with
the
world.
