  • Tag changed from “base64, stdlib” to “1.9.1, base64, stdlib”

  +1 I can reproduce it in ruby 1.9.1 but it worked in ruby 1.8.7

  I noticed the same thing, but it looks like this is a change between Ruby 1.8 and Ruby 1.9 and not a problem with Rails. According to the Ruby 1.9 Rdoc, that method does not exist, while the Ruby 1.8.6 Rdoc does have b64encode.

  In addition, a plain irb session in Ruby 1.9.1-p378 behaves identically to what you experienced in the rails console. Rails is mentioned in the stack trace because you used the rails console instead of irb.

  $ irb
  ruby-1.9.1-p378 > require 'base64'
   => true 
  ruby-1.9.1-p378 > Base64.b64encode('blah')
  NoMethodError: undefined method `b64encode' for Base64:Module
      from (irb):2
      from /Users/isomorphix/.rvm/rubies/ruby-1.9.1-p378/bin/irb:17:in `<main>'
  ruby-1.9.1-p378 >

  Jose:

  please add some explanation why it was marked invalid?

  It's pretty clear I'm not able to use it, regardless of what isomorphix said, and I hope you didn't close it only based on what he said.

  i.e. I can use it just fine in irb, but it does not behave as expected in rails.
