Collision Between Ultrasphinx and TextMate Footnotes
By chris on August 7th 2008 in /dev/rails | 327 views
If, when running in production, your Rails app throws the following error:
uninitialized constant Footnotes::Filter
You’re probably experiencing a collision between Rails’ initializer.rb file and Footnotes’ initializer.rb file.
The fix is detailed at the bottom of Searching a Ruby on Rails application with Sphinx and Ultrasphinx with the specific implementation details available via this github commit: 9bf8344b2d9ece09ff301dfc4e500e00fd46b9bc.

I had an uninitialized constant error when using HTTParty, but didn’t realise what was causing it. Why am I posting about it here? I don’t have a blog, but there’s this one, and Google might want to keep it… for posterity.
Problem? I was getting “uninitialized constant Twitter::HTTParty”. Solution? I was requiring rubygems, but not httparty.
require ‘rubygems’
require ‘httparty’
class Twitter
include HTTParty
end
N00b error!
