Rails time_ago_in_words producing bad output

问题

I thought this might be due to moving to activesupport 2.3.5 but now I believe something else must have happened.

Model has a valid rfc822 style date:

>> s.lastVisitDate
=> "Thu, 06 Jan 2011 22:24:10 -0800"

But in my view:

<%=h time_ago_in_words(@site.lastVisitDate) -%>

renders: *about {{count}} hours ago* 
instead of: *about 2 hours ago* which was working just fine earlier.

Wondering if anyone else has seen this behavior. I've reviewed my version history for the model and view and nothing has changed recently so I believe I must have messed up something on the config side of things.

回答1:

I found that I was missing the appropriate values in a locale file.

So in my case I added the following to /config/locales/en.yml

I am not sure why this was previously working or what specific gem or config change triggered this issue but having the proper definition here make actionpack happy.

        other: "less than %{count} seconds"
      x_seconds:
        one:   "1 second"
        other: "%{count} seconds"
