Rehashing an old message. I found a solution to this a while ago but
never responded to my original message. Well, better late than never!
Hopefully this will help someone in the future from wasting the
amount of time that I did.
The problem turned out to be a bug with using self.method(action).call
in acts_as_state_machine. To fix it, I removed
self.method(action).call from run_transition_action(action) method in
acts_as_state_machine.rb, and replaced it with self.send(action),
since self.method(action) was causing the SecurityError (Insecure:
can't modify array).
Here's two other links from people who have run into the same problem
in the past:
http://cmms.norfello.com/cmms/ticket/445
http://code.google.com/p/dry-scaffold/source/browse/dry_scaffold/CHANGELOG
This issue existed in revision 66 of the acts_as_state_machine from here:
http://elitists.textdriven.com/svn/plugins/acts_as_state_machine/trunk/lib/acts_as_state_machine.rb
I'm not sure if it still exists in the github version.
