Errors in ApplicationHelper are silently swallowed

Posted on May 13th, 2007 by Alex Gorbatchev. In Rails. No comments yet...

This little bug took me some time to figure out. It’s one of those really annoying where all of a sudden you feel lost and have no idea what’s going on.

Symptoms: NoMethodError is thrown for every single method you have defined in your ApplicationHelper.

Fix: You probably deleted or renamed something recently that’s included in ApplicationHelper. Double check your includes.

This has been a known issue for over a year now. Not good. The problem is being noted in the logs however.
