Undefined method has_attached_file with a copy of paperclip 2.3.8 for Rails 2 using Ruby 1.8.7

I am trying to use the paperclip plugin in a rails application to load images for messages. I am using Rails 2.0.2 and ruby ​​1.8.7 for Ubuntu 10.04 os for specific project purposes.

I mean the following tutorials for this: -

I made a git clone on the clip plugin via: - https://github.com/thoughtbot/paperclip , but a command like ruby script/generate paperclip group_post photodidn 't generate a migration for it. Then I created a migration for it through ruby ​​script / generate and loaded the corresponding columns of my table group_posts.

Then I tried to install the gem, and since I use activerecord and activesupport 2.0.2, I used paperclip 2.3.8 gem from rubygems.org. The undefined method error still persisted, I really could not understand why.

Now here .. the team ruby script/generate paperclip group_post photoworked great for me.

The current error I get is like this: -

undefined method `has_attached_file' for #<Class:0xb67119f0>

It's funny that I watched this behavior when I used IRB, require 'paperclip'came back true, but I wonder why they cannot find the method that comes with the plugin in my rails application.

Application trace for this: -
