Application Error (Rails) - Misisng helper file helpers/all_helper.rb

Probably a stupid question, but I come from the .NET/Microsoft world and this is my first foray into Rails and Unix.  I followed all of the instructions that were posted on the site to upload my Rails application, and I get the "Application Error (Rails)" page.  Looking at the production.log file, it's telling me that it cannot load the helper file specified in the thread title.  I don't know if this is a Rails specific file, but I don't have any "all_helper.rb" file in my application.  I created it using Rails 1.8.6 and midway through updated my version of Rails to 2.0.2 (maybe this was my problem?) - was this something that changed between versions?  

As I said, I'm new to using Rails and Unix, so I'm really not sure what I did wrong.

Hi there -

Could you try freezing Rails to the version on your development box ?
For example the command below should freeze rails to 1.2.5 version.
rake rails:freeze:edge TAG=rel_1-2-5

Thanks for the reply.

Just so I'm clear (like I said, Microsoftie here, so this is new to me):

I ran a freeze on my rails to version 1.2.6 (the version I had started using originally).  I want to upload that vendor folder (that now contains a rails directory) to my HostingRails site, right?  As I recall, Rails looks there first and then to the "main" rails directory.

That fixed it - thanks a lot!
