ruby 1.8.2 (2004-12-25) [i386-mswin32] latest version of edge rails - patched to make the server work with win32 (http://dev.rubyonrails.org/ticket/4139) On some pages WEBrick is crashing with the following: d:/programming/ruby/lib/ruby/1.8/profiler.rb:27: You have a nil object when you didn''t expect it! (NoMethodError) You might have expected an instance of Array. The error occured while evaluating nil.[] from d:/programming/ruby/lib/rub y/1.8/profiler.rb:5:in `require'' from script/server:7:in `require'' from script/server:7 Any ideas on what''s happening, or tips on tracking this down would be great. Here''s the full output (not especially pretty formatted I''m afraid due to wrap): [2006-03-10 11:51:37] INFO WEBrick 1.3.1 [2006-03-10 11:51:37] INFO ruby 1.8.2 (2004-12-25) [i386-mswin32] [2006-03-10 11:51:37] INFO WEBrick::HTTPServer#start: pid=3860 port=3000 % cumulative self self total time seconds seconds calls ms/call ms/call name 138.04 3.80 3.80 1 3796.00 3796.00 Profiler__.start_profile 36.80 4.81 1.01 873 1.16 2.00 Array#include?
