I'm running a Rails 3 app using Authlogic 2.1.6. I've added a cron task that
will not execute. It errors out with this:

$ heroku rake cron
(in /app)
start sending reminder emails
rake aborted!
uninitialized constant Object::Event

The cron is quite simple:

desc "This task is called by the Heroku cron add-on"
task :cron => :environment do
  begin
    puts "start sending reminder emails"
    Event.send_reminders
    puts "finished sending reminder emails"
  end
end

and Event.send_reminders should sent out reminder emails as requested by the
users.


After going back a forth with Heroku support for a few days, the conclusion
was that the cron is ok and the problem is likely somewhere in the Rails
setup...

So I created a new basic app on Heroku, with an Event model and a simpler
send_reminder method that just accesses the database. This works. Then when
I add my Authlogic code for registration/login/password reminder and try the
cron again, it fails with the same error as shown above.

I should add that the Authlogic gem is included in the Gemfile right off the
bat and doesn't cause any problems until I add in the code that utilizes
Authlogic.

I have tried including this in the cron file:

require '../../app/models/event'

and other variations to make sure the event.rb file is being found, but none
of that worked either.

Any help greatly appreciated.
