ActionView::TemplateError: uninitialized constant Err::Acts::Textiled::ClassMethods::RedCloth

Posted on 27 January 2009

After I setup the acts_as_textiled plugin. I got the following error when I deployed to my production server.

ActionView::TemplateError: uninitialized constant Err::Acts::Textiled::ClassMethods::RedCloth

At first I thought it was because the RedCloth gem was not installed, but it was. So I figured there must have been another error going on that was hidden away.

I ssh'd onto the server and navigated to the directory where the app was stored and fired up the console.

script/console production
require 'rubygems'
require 'RedCloth'
Could not find RubyGem echoe (>= 0)

The real problem was revealed, the echoe gem was missing.

sudo gem install echoe

Problem fixed. Read all about echoe.

  • I am working on the site for someone, and they do not want the forum to show the new design until the site is completely finished. So the template is not is not the chosen one, and no one can view it.When I preview it though, it shows that error at the bottom of the page.

  • I had this issue deploying to Dreamhost... I ran irb> require "rubygems" then require "RedCloth" and got 'no such file to load' As it turned out I just had to use: irb> require "redcloth" and it worked.
