NoMethodError (undefined method `normalize_params' for nil:NilClass)

[anka]

I am using

rails (4.2.0)
griddler (1.1.0)
griddler-mandrill (1.0.2)

and I am hosting it on heroku. When sending a test mail from mandrill I get the following error message:

It looks like Griddler.configuration.email_service isn't set. Can you run this in the rails console:

Griddler.configuration.email_service

and paste the result?

[gabebw]

If you didn't explicitly set email_service, that needs to be set, as detailed here.

Thanks, you are totally right. It was my fault, I thought the config would be defaulted to the example. I added the initializer and now I have set Mandrill as the adapter but now I get

I am hosting this on heroku. Any thoughts on this one?

[gabebw]

It looks like your processor class takes zero arguments to its initialize method, but it should take one (the email). We have an example EmailProcessor - what does your EmailProcessor class look like?

[anka]

Ok I am so sorry for bothering you with my mistakes. I think I copied some older version of the example email processor. Now everything is working well.

Great! Happy to help.
