activescaffold

Hey there

I was curious about the ActiveScaffold Rails plugin, but somehow I can't get it to work properly. I've followed the steps which are described on http://activescaffold.com/tutorials/ . The table and everything shows up and when I click on "Create new", the dialog pops up. However, when I fill out the form and click "Create", I just get "500 Internal server error".

In the server log, it says "NameError (wrong constant name ###):", with ### being what I entered in the first form field.

If I don't enter anything in the form, it says "NoMethodError (undefined method `new_record?' for #):"...

So what am I doing wrong here?

Thanks in advance for your help :)
