Rails - Aug 2007 - file_column plugin: get undefined method 'file_column' error

I''ve install the ''file_column'' plugin properly
following instructions
from the Rails Cookbook and other sources on the web.  The file_column
files are located under vendor\plugins\file_column.  I then add this
to my controller:

file_column :photo1

where photo1 is the column in my table that will hold the image.

then in my views I have a multipart form that has functionality to
upload the image:
<p><label for="table_photo1">Photo</label><br
/>
<%= file_column_field "table", "photo1" %></p>

I restarted my webserver, but every time I try to connect to the view
with that multipart form I get the error:
"undefined method ''file_column'' for
<<mycontrollername>>::Class

RAILS_ROOT: /MyApp/config/...
#{RAILS_ROOT}/app/controllers/mycontroller.rb:5
/usr/bin/monrel_rails:16 in ''load''
/usr/bin/mongrel_rails:16

Line 5 in mycontroller.rb is where I use the call to
''file_column :photo1''.  It''s like the plugin is not
really getting
loaded even though it is sitting in my plugin directory.  There are a
ton of threads on the web about this problem ... but I haven''t found a
solution yet.  Any thoughts out there would be *greatly*
appreciated!!  I really want to see this work!

Thanks in advance!
Leah

The "file_column :photo1" line should go in your "Table"
model,
not in the controller.
