I am working on accommodating time-zones with the following tutorial on
caboose.se:
http://blog.caboo.se/articles/2007/2/23/adding-timezone-to-your-rails-app
It requires installation of tztime and tzinfo_timezone plugins. I seem
to have successfully installed these plugins and they appear in my
vendor/plugins directory. I''ve tried to use this plugin in my
application the way the tutorial recommends:
class ApplicationController < ActionController::Base
around_filter :set_timezone
private
def set_timezone
TzTime.zone = current_user.tz
yield
TzTime.reset!
end
end
But I get the error: "uninitialized constant
ApplicationController::TzTime" on the "TzTime.zone =" line. Am I
skipping a step to install the tztime plugin? I don''t have to move
vendor/plugins/tztime/lib/tz_time.rb to app/models directory, do I?
Thanks,
Peter

Well, then, that''s obviously not the problem. :) Run script/console, and try this:>> TzTime.zone=> #<TzinfoTimezone:0xb9d83e34 @utc_offset=-21600, @name="Central Time (US & Canada)"> Do you get that output? I have this in my config/environment.rb file: # Use tzinfo library to convert to and from the users timezone gem ''tzinfo'' include TZInfo TzTime.zone = TimeZone[''Central Time (US & Canada)''] # This makes Time.now return time in UTC ENV[''TZ''] = ''UTC'' --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.

When I put what you have into my own environment.rb file, I get "NameError: uninitialized constant TzTime from (irb):1" as a response. I''m running rails on Locomotive on OSX if that makes any difference. -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.

I even though I was able to install plugins from the gem, my app somehow did not have access to the gem. Thanks so much for helping me diagnose this issue Michael :) -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.
