Hi Pat Thanks for the info. I just wanted to double check as I was getting an error with the app_env task in tasks.rb using the Rails configuration instance to set cache_classes to false.
I had upgraded to 1.2.6 and installed as a plugin (as you also suggested) as that seemed the easiest path ... and yes I wanted to avoid mucking around with gem mgt issues at this point. I just modified the line in task.rb to read Rails::Configuration.new.cache_classes = false to allow the start task to run.
