Upon changing I receive this error: C:/ruby/lib/ruby/site_ruby/1.8/rubygems/custom_require.rb:27:in `gem_original_require': no such file to load -- activerecord (LoadError) from C:/ruby/lib/ruby/site_ruby/1.8/rubygems/custom_require.rb:27:in `require' from app/gatherer.rb:3 Which to my eyes appears that activerecord may not be installed. HOWEVER I tried this: require 'active_record' and it seems to work, until: C:\InstantRails\ruby\lib\ruby\gems\1.8\gems\activesupport-1.4.2\lib/active_support/dependencies.rb:376:in `new_constants_in': undefined method `empty?' for nil:NilClass (NoMethodError) from C:\InstantRails\ruby\lib\ruby\gems\1.8\gems\activesupport-1.4.2\lib/active_support/dependencies.rb:495:in `require' from C:\InstantRails\ruby\lib\ruby\gems\1.8\gems\activesupport-1.4.2\lib/active_support.rb:34 from C:\InstantRails\ruby\lib\ruby\gems\1.8\gems\activerecord-1.15.3\lib/active_record.rb:30:in `require' from C:\InstantRails\ruby\lib\ruby\gems\1.8\gems\activerecord-1.15.3\lib/active_record.rb:30 from app/gatherer.rb:2:in `require' from app/gatherer.rb:2 -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.
