Rails - May 2008 - Calling a controller method with a rake task - plugin errors

I have a rake task to call a controller method:

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

require ''action_controller''
require ''action_controller/integration''

namespace :backup do
  desc "Starts automated backup procedure for all databases"

  task "do_auto" do
        app = ActionController::Integration::Session.new;
  app.get ''/database/backup_auto''
  end
end


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

When I run it I get an error about not finding an act_as_xxx which is
defined in a custom plugin:

/!\ FAILSAFE /!\  Thu May 08 00:05:47 +0200 2008
  Status: 500 Internal Server Error
  undefined local variable or method `acts_as_xxxx'' for
ApplicationController:Class

It''s my first rake task and I can''t quite get my head around
the app
boot process. Why can''t it find the plugin in this case?

Thanks,

Russell.
