Upgrading from rails 3.0 to 3.2

Hi,
I am new to ruby on rails development. Please excuse me if my question
is too obvious. I am trying to upgrade from rails 3.0 to 3.2. I am stuck
at a point. I am running into this following error.

INTERNAL ERROR!!! undefined method abstract_class?' for #<Class:0x007f8692ac2450> /Users/CRalladoddi/.rvm/gems/ruby-1.9.3-p551/gems/attr_encrypted-1.2.1/lib/attr_encrypted.rb:241:inmethod_missing’

/Users/CRalladoddi/.rvm/gems/ruby-1.9.3-p551/gems/activerecord-3.2.13/lib/active_record/base.rb:421:in
`inspect’

What I found is that, the method ‘abstract_class?’ has been moved from
base.rb to inheritance.rb in rails 3.2.
I was actually trying to use execute the following statement when this
error happened.
ActiveRecord::Base.connection.column_exists? klass.table_name, :user_id

Any ideas on work arounds

Thanks in advance.

That version of attr_encrypted is fairly old, but I don’t think it’s the
culprit. Can you post the full stack trace?

Thanks Matt. Here’s is the longer stack trace. I got past this error
when I copied
the abstract_class? and other methods from inheritance.rb to base.rb.
How can we make ActiveRecord bse.rb include inheritance.rb so we dont
have to so that?
