Problem Example Of Camping – Mongrel
Today it was time to do some poking around into how Mongrel and Camping fit together. I was going pretty well until I ran smack bang into a roadblock.
Mongrel v1.0.1 comes with an examples folder that contains some camping specific stuff. Good, thought I, let’s run them. The blog.rb example ran wonderfully, however, problems occurred when running tepee.rb:
/usr/local/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/activesupport-1.4.2/lib/active_support/dependencies.rb:263:in `load_missing_constant’: uninitialized constant ActiveRecord::Base (NameError)
from /usr/local/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/activesupport-1.4.2/lib/active_support/dependencies.rb:452:in `const_missing’

from tepee.rb:4
from tepee.rb:4
No ActiveRecord, lawd! So got my Google fingers walking and voila, the answer helpfully provided by Sir Evan Weaver. A dash of require ‘camping/db’ and it’s happy hour.

Hello,
I know it’s probably been a while, but I was wondering if you still had the tepee.rb file that you’ve fixed. Since _why took his webpages down I’m unable to see the solution you referenced. Thanks in advance for any help you can provide.

I was sorry to see that _why has removed his stuff from the web. I suppose that he has his reasons. Anyway, I’ve sent you the teepee.rb file. Hope it helps.
