My advice would be to drop the index action entirely from ApplicationController, since its not very good practice (ApplicationController isn't meant to define actions - it's more for collecting before_filters and things like that).
If you'd like to talk a bit more about what you're trying to do with the index action there, we can certainly give you some advice on what to replace it with.
