Vell-- With the asset pipeline, you don't include assets explicitly at /assets/application.js
Instead, you use the asset pipeline and let it handle this for you. Re-read the Asset pipeline Rails guide carefully, make sure your config.assets settings are correct (remember, "turned on by default" doesn't apply if you upgraded from a pre-3.1 rails app -- you have to change the config setting yourself). The assets get compiled into a folder at public/assets/ but you can't include those explicitly because of the asset ID thumbprint hash that gets added. -Jason On Feb 17, 2012, at 9:47 AM, Vell wrote: > > > On Feb 17, 7:56 am, Peter Vandenabeele <[email protected]> wrote: >> On Thu, Feb 16, 2012 at 4:28 PM, Vell <[email protected]> wrote: >> >>> On Feb 15, 1:46 pm, Peter Vandenabeele <[email protected]> wrote: >>>> On Wed, Feb 15, 2012 at 7:13 PM, Vell <[email protected]> wrote: >>>>> Hello all, >> >>>>> I am attempting to add some jquery to an application that I am >>> developing >>>>> but I am having trouble getting my newly created .js file to load.
