Rails - Oct 2007 - Very simple code throwing "uninitialized constant" error

This code works on an older version of Ruby and Rails but not with
Ruby 1.8.6 and Rails 1.2.5. The code is so simple that I can''t figure
out where the problem is.

profile_controller.rb

class ProfileController < ApplicationController
	def show
		@profile = Profile.find_by_school_id(params[:id])
	end
end

-----------------------------------------------------------

profile.rb

class Profile < ActiveRecord::Base
	belongs_to :school
	belongs_to :profile_type
	translates :text   #<--- I''m using the Globalize plugin
end

--------------------------------------------------------

http://localhost:3000/en/profile/show/51 throws:

 NameError in ProfileController#show

uninitialized constant Profile

RAILS_ROOT: script/../config/..

vendor/rails/activesupport/lib/active_support/dependencies.rb:100:in
`const_missing''
vendor/rails/activesupport/lib/active_support/dependencies.rb:131:in
`const_missing''
vendor/rails/activesupport/lib/active_support/dependencies.rb:133:in
`send''
vendor/rails/activesupport/lib/active_support/dependencies.rb:133:in
`const_missing''
app/controllers/profile_controller.rb:4:in `show''

----------------------------------------------------

If I change the query to @profile = Foobar.find(:first, :conditions =>
["school_id = ?", params[:id]])

I get a similar error, but it also adds:

This error occured while loading the following files:
   foobar.rb

...so I assume it knows about the profile.rb model. Why is it saying
Profile is an uninitialized constant, and why does this braindead
simple code work fine in an older version of Rails but not the latest?

I''ve seen ruby 1.8.6 get fussy about line endings in a way that  
previous versions weren''t. Check all your files use the same.
I''d
also check that the Globalize plugin is also being loaded properly

The globalize plugin appears to be working--I can switch between
languages on other pages. But I''m probably using an older version so
I''ll try updating it. But even if I comment out the "translates
:text"
line in the Profile model, I still get the same error.

As for line endings, I don''t see any stray tabs, spaces or
nonprintable characters.

Since I originally created the application with an older version of
Ruby and Rails, do I need to do something to update the application?
Some kind of rake command?

By line ending problems I mean some a file using dos line endings (on  
a unix like machine) or vice versa.

There is rake rails:update  which will update boot.rb and various  
things.
