I had the same problem and finally fixed. The solution is to explicitly require the 'jquery-rails' gem in the dummy config/application.rb file, so Sprockets can add the jquery assets in the assets.path.
In test/dummy/config/application.rb require File.expand_path('../boot', __FILE__) # Pick the frameworks you want: # require "active_record/railtie" require "action_controller/railtie" require "action_mailer/railtie" require "active_resource/railtie" require "rails/test_unit/railtie" require "sprockets/railtie" # Auto-require default libraries and those for the current Rails environment. Bundler.require :default, Rails.env require "coffee" require "jquery-rails" # this should be auto-included with the Bundler.require :default, Rails.env, but it's not happening module Dummy class Application < Rails::Application # ... end end Same with other gems that have assets that should be auto-loaded by Sprockets. Hope this helps. - Mario Izquierdo On Sep 1, 9:02 pm, Jorgen Nilsson <li...@ruby-forum.com> wrote: > When I create a new engine in Rails 3.1 stable and then access the dummy > app or the engine I get an error say that the app can't find jquery. > > I've created the engine using > rails plugin new coffee --mountable > > I've also created a basic controller in the engine and the dummy app. If > I remove the javascript include tag, everything works.
