Does anyone have anything to add? Hasn't anyone seen this error?

I'm seeing it now. Using postgresql db. 

Also got the error below which i solved/worked around by commenting out line 47 
in 
config/boot.rb

undefined method `add_frozen_gem_path' for Rails::GemDependency:Class

Despite updated to Ruby 1.8.7, the problem still exist.

having the same issues on ubuntu 9.10 and OS X with rails 2.3.5 and ruby 1.8.7

You all should be running Rails 2.1.x, not 2.3.

Original comment by subim...@gmail.com on 19 Apr 2010 at 6:20

It appears that the "release 1.1.0" version is built with a rails 2.3.x 
config\boot.rb but includes a vendored rails 2.1.2 , so a conflict occurs.  Or 
is 
that not the case here?

Happening to me too... I'd love for this to be fixed.

He said we should change to rails 2.1 instead of 2.3. Did anyone tried?

I've just downgraded my installation of rails and will give it a try. I'll 
report back soon.

Original comment by nickja...@gmail.com on 4 Jun 2010 at 5:49

[GoogleCodeExporter]

I can't seem to downgrade. After uninstalling, I attempt to re-install 2.1

gem install rails -v 2.1 - include-dependencies

however rails -v still brings up Rails 2.2.2

I'll keep plugging away...

You guys are making this way harder than it needs to be. Use the Rails version 
included in the vendor folder 
either from the GZIP archive, or from the SVN checkout. This is not rocket 
science.

Original comment by subim...@gmail.com on 7 Jun 2010 at 5:32

And how do I "Use the Rails version included in the vendor folder"?  comment 
the line in evnironment.rb?

# Specifies gem version of Rails to use when vendor/rails is not present
#RAILS_GEM_VERSION = '2.3.5' unless defined? RAILS_GEM_VERSION

This may not be rocket science but it would be great if you didn't assume we 
are all familiar with the codebase.

How about you either update the almost non-existent installation documentation 
or just outright state how to do that? Either would be great :)

Thanks!

So I fixed it. And yes anyone just using the zip file is ALREADY using the 
frozen rails in /vendor and that is NOT the problem.

Had to edit config/initializers/new_rails_defaults.rb

and comment out ActionController::Routing.generate_best_match = false.
Apparently the initializers and envrionnement were NOT created with rails 
2.1.2. Removing the offending bits allows the bundled, frozen rails in vendor 
to work correctly.

@mr.daemon ...Thanks for the details.

I think I might try getting a working copy with 2.3.x into trunk this week.

Thanks, that's a great news for all of us

Biggest hurdle is figuring out the proper way to do migrations with 2.3, which 
is what has kept me from doing it in the past. There still isn't a proper way 
to handle migrations with that Rails version :/

Just tagged / released Substruct 1.2.0 which fixes this issue. Sorry for the 
confusion again.

http://code.google.com/p/substruct/downloads/detail?name=substruct_rel_1-2-0.tar
.gz

I'm closing this one down. If you want to talk about Substruct on Rails 2.3 
then please check out issue 198.
