I'm having this problem too. I have the activesupport gem installed and aws requires it. I can't figure out why this error is happening.

The vote for the issue, please!

I was finally able to get this working by commenting out the line:

unless defined? ActiveSupport

and it's corresponding end in lib/awsbase/support.rb. This forces the gem to use its own monkeypatches instead of relying on ActiveSupport. For some reason ActiveSupport's methods don't show up even though it's present and gets required.

Is this some kind of problem with ActiveSupport versions > 3?

Are you guys still having this issue? I haven't noticed it.

[mattmanning]

It's was fixed. I suggested a patch and you guys put it in.

The problem was in lib/awsbase/right_awsbase.rb

It had the line:

require 'active_support'

That only works for ActiveSupport versions < 3. For >= 3 you have to
give it a submodule like 'active_support/core_ext' or
'active_support/all', etc.

It looks like that line is now in lib/awsbase/awsbase.rb and is
commented out, so I'm not sure if you guys removed the dependency on
ActiveSupport or what. I haven't had any more problems, though.
