Question

I’m having this strange error for the devise_invitable extension:

uninitialized constant ActiveSupport::SecureRandom

But the strange thing is that I don’t know how to load that module anyway, like if in my console I execute ActiveSupport, thats fine and responds with true but not that SecureRandom class, or ActiveSupport::SecureRandom, and like I know its part of ActiveRecord, it’s in the docs here: http://api.rubyonrails.org/classes/ActiveSupport/SecureRandom.html

How would you start troubleshooting an issue like this?

So it seems the class SecureRandom works as is, but not when called as part of ActiveSupport like ActiveSupport::SecureRandom, why would this be?

I fixed this by switching to the master branch of Devise on my 3-1-stable Rails application.

gem 'devise', :git => "git://github.com/plataformatec/devise"
