merb-action-args causes nothing to render
Reported by Nolan Darilek | August 28th, 2008 @ 08:38 PM | in 1.0
I had a 0.9.3 app which I'd attempted to upgrade to 0.9.5. After changing my calls to form helpers, I noticed nothing was being returned from my application. Viewing source in firefox showed nothing, and when I telnetted to the merb instance and ran a GET by hand, connection dropped immediately after I sent the Host: header and associated blank line. The console only showed that the route had been matched, but no further request processing.
I then created an empty app and began copying huge parts of my existing app into it. I eventually narrowed it down to config/init.rb then to the line:
dependency "merb-action-args"
Commenting that out in my original application had everything working fine again.
So I next generated a blank app. Hitting localhost:4000/ without depending on action-args worked. If I depend on it, however, I immediately start receiving nothing rather than the "fresh merb app" page.

Same story with me. Making a fresh Merb 0.9.6 app causes the same problem.
In my case, it was the line: dependency 'merb-more', but I narrowed it down the same way and had the same problem.

This is happening to me since I switched to ubuntu intrepid which uses ruby 1.8.7 (2008-06-20 patchlevel 22) [i486-linux], the previous version used 1.8.6. Maybe that could be the cause?

I forgot to mention this is happening on both 0.9.6 and latest 0.9.7 when using merb-action-args.

I run on 186p111 (because all 1.8.x releases after it are problematic in one way or another), and use action-args a lot: everything works. What version of ParseTree do you have?

I can confirm the same problem on Ubuntu with:
ruby 1.8.7 (2008-08-11 patchlevel 72) [i486-linux] merb-action-args-0.9.10 ParseTree-2.1.1.
Updating to ParseTree-2.2.0 resolves the issue for me.

ParseTree 2.2.0 has no windows binary so we cannot use it as a dependency for a while. If you can help with that, it'd be appreciated.
