Uninitialized Constant TZInfo::InvalidTimezoneIdentifier (NameError) - Rails 4

问题

I'm in the process of upgrading a Rails 3.2 app to Rails 4.1. Whenever I try to start the console or server though, I come across this error:

C:/Ruby200/lib/ruby/gems/2.0.0/gems/activesupport-4.1.0.beta1/lib/active_support

Not really sure what's causing it and wondered if anyone has any advice. I tried this in irb and didn't encounter any problems (an error is raised as it should be):

irb(main):001:0> require 'active_support/core_ext/time/zones'
=> true
irb(main):002:0> Time.find_zone!('good')
ArgumentError: Invalid Timezone: f

Gemfile includes:

ruby "2.0.0"
gem "rails", "~> 4.1.0.beta1"
gem 'tzinfo-data'

Edit (some more info): It seems as if the inclusion of the gem 'tzinfo-data' might be messing something up? When the gem is in the gemfile, in seems as if 'tzinfo' isn't ever getting required during the RailsApp::Application.initialize! call in environment.rb. However, when the gem is removed, the require is happening.

回答1:

Requiring the tzinfo gem before initializing the app in environment.rb fixes the issue for me. Doesn't really explain everything, but seems to work

# adding this fixes the issue
require 'tzinfo'

# Initialize the rails application
RailsApp::Application.initialize!

Edit: Seems this was a problem with Rails: https://github.com/rails/rails/issues/13553

回答2:

This worked for me:

gem uninstall tzinfo
#select 'All versions'
gem install tzinfo
rails c
