I am going to guess that it's something like this: You have a nil object when you didn't expect it! You might have expected an instance of Array. The error occurred while evaluating nil.<< If not, please post the error (good idea to do that in general). If so, this is fixed in trunk. Attached is a patch you can use to address it in your rails app (apply from vendor/plugins) Please let us know if this fixes the problem.
