My guess is that there could be a typo, config.load_paths = ITEM here

You can do a puts config.load_paths at the end of the environment.rb and check the console to see if the folders are being added.

By now I have only a single folder (“item”) with all classes (STI included) .
Talking about environment.rb I’ve tried with your (and others) generic version, now with this simple statement:
config.load_paths += %W( #{RAILS_ROOT}/app/models/item )
but nothing seems work…

Very strange!

Hi Nicola,
What is your folder structure for your models folder?
What did you add to your environment.rb file?

Hi tommy,
I’m using Rails 2.3.2 and seems that there is no way to make work the snippet…

Rails wants that I define namespaces for all the classes in the subdirectory…is there another config to do?

Thanks,
Nicola.
