uninitialized constant Active Scaffold rails 2.3.5

Question

Hi guy,

I update my rails application 2.0.2 to 2.3.5. I use active scaffold for the administration part.

I change nothing in my code but a problem is coming with the update. I have a controller 'admin/user_controller' to manage users.

Here is the code of the controller:

    class Admin::UserController < ApplicationController

  layout 'admin'

  active_scaffold :user do |config|
    config.columns.exclude :content, :historique_content, :user_has_objet, :user_has_arme, :user_has_entrainement, :user_has_mission, :mp, :pvp, :user_salt, :tchat, :notoriete_by_pvp, :invitation
    config.list.columns = [:user_login, :user_niveau, :user_mail, :user_bloc, :user_valide, :group_id] #:user_description, :race, :group, :user_lastvisited, :user_nextaction, :user_combats_gagner, :user_combats_perdu, :user_combats_nul, :user_password, :user_salt, :user_combats, :user_experience, :user_mana, :user_vie
    config.create.link.page = true
    config.update.link.page = true
    config.create.columns.add :password, :password_confirmation
    config.update.columns.add :password, :password_confirmation
    config.create.columns.exclude :user_password, :user_salt
    config.update.columns.exclude :user_password, :user_salt
    config.list.sorting = {:user_login => 'ASC'}
    config.subform.columns = []
  end
end

This code hasn't change with the update, but when I go in this page, I got this error:

    uninitialized constant Users

I search since 2 days but I don't find the problem, can you help me please.

Answer 1

the naming convention in your application seems buggy

it should be:

class Admin::UsersController < ApplicationController

not UserController as it is. maybe it won't fix your problem, but it worth a try!

Answer 2

Hmmm, it's strange to do this because the url to access is => admin/user

I have tried your solution but it's didn't work :(

I'll become crazy with this bug ^^

Answer 3

Starting with Rails 2.3.x you have to install the Render Component plugin:

./script/plugin install git://github.com/ewildgoose/render_component.git -r rails-2.3
