Today I upgraded to Ruby on Rails version 0.14.2, while working on a new website when I went to generate a scaffold I started getting the following error:
You have a nil object when you didn't expect it! You might have expected an instance of Array. The error occured while evaluating nil.include?
After searching around for a little bit I found out that it was a problem in the latest code. Basically you have to change the line 49 in scaffold_generator.rb which gem usually installs at /usr/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/rails-0.14.2/lib/rails_generator/generators/components/scaffold/ from
1 |
@controller_name = args.shift or (ActiveRecord::Base.pluralize_table_names ? @name.pluralize : @name) |
to
1 |
@controller_name = (ActiveRecord::Base.pluralize_table_names ? @name.pluralize : @name) |
