Hi!

First of all, make sure you are aware of the existence of Ruby on Rails 
mailing list that is more specialised and dedicated to answering 
questions concerning Rails Framework and not Ruby in general. You can 
find it at Google Groups:
http://groups.google.com/group/rubyonrails-talk?hl=en

Using Rails 1.2.1 I tried to create your model and add exactly the same 
syntax

class Product < ActiveRecord::Base
  validates_presence_of :title, :description, :image_url
end

and I've got no errors at all.

Maybe there's a problem in your Ruby or Rails installation or some weird 
non-printed characters in the file???

Your sincerely,
