Documentation for Seed is fairly brief at the moment – I’m working on improving this. In the meantime if anyone wants to use seed and has any difficulty getting it up and running just describe any issues here and I’ll do my best to help. – Dave Currin

Errors during script/setup demo

‘The syntax of the command is incorrect’…

Unresolved
‘The syntax of the command is incorrect’ appears three times, after generating settings.yml, and before ‘Setting up database…’. It results in no secret key being generated. Also, rake fails with error ‘Uninitialized constant APP_CONFIG’. This is on a Windows XP setup with Seed frozen to Rails 2.1.5 (if Seed is not frozen, the result is identical but with four ‘The syntax of the command is incorrect’ messages instead of three).

Forcing an install of the App_Config plugin from agilewebdevelopment.com/plugins/app_config results in a rake and server error “uninitialized constant AppConfig::Base::OrderedOptions”. Modifying the problem line to “@@parameters = Rails::OrderedOptions.new” results in a rake error “Expected …/vendor/plugins/app_config/lib/app_config.rb to define APP_CONFIG”. Please help!

‘no such file to load — highline/import’

Resolved
This error message simply means you don’t have the highline gem installed:
...path/custom_require.rb:31:in `gem_original_require': no such file to load -- highline/import (LoadError)
Install it with gem install highline
