Started Rails with debugger:

rdebug Rails s

Added breakpoint:

(rdb:1) break /home/jseidel/.rvm/gems/ruby-1.9.3-p327@rails3212/bundler/gems/active_scaffold-7172b114e082/lib/active_scaffold/actions/update.rb:14
Breakpoint 1 file /home/jseidel/.rvm/gems/ruby-1.9.3-p327@rails3212/bundler/gems/active_scaffold-7172b114e082/lib/active_scaffold/actions/update.rb, line 14

Crashed, referencing the above breakpoint line:

NoMethodError (undefined method `each' for nil:NilClass):

I was expecting to get control in .../active_scaffold/actions/update.rb at line 14 as specified in the breakpoint. What am I doing wrong? FYI, I had problems with the old rdebug19 module as well...

Thanks; let me know if you need any testing or other help.

It looks like it's crapping out before it gets to the breakpoint. If debugger were failing I would expect to see a stacktrace pointing to debugger's internals. I'd recommend wrapping the failing line in a begin and rescue to see what is nil and why. This may be an activescaffold bug.

Closing. I can reopen when you've looked into my suggestion.
