I am trying to write a patch to improve the following Obscure error message:
`parse': (<unknown>): mapping values are not allowed in this context at line 18 column 11 (Psych::SyntaxError) the idea is the a error message should atleast inform in which file the error is, so we may fix it but currently that doesn't happen. so I with my rudimentary rails skills wrote the following script that correctly raises the error: https://gist.github.com/4107885 But when I tried to apply same technique of rescuing Psych::SyntaxError in rails(https://gist.github.com/4107839), it didn't work. it generates the following error: railties-3.2.8/lib/rails/railtie/configuration.rb:85:in `method_missing': undefined local variable or method `config' for #<Rails::Application::Configuration:0x00000002dec130> (NameError) Need suggestions on how to handle this error & print an user-friendly error message. *Issue*: https://github.com/rails/rails/issues/8143 *Test Script*: https://gist.github.com/4107885 *Rails change*: https://gist.github.com/4107839 Regards, Gaurish Sharma -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Core" group.
