Answer 1

It looks like you have inadvertently upgraded to the new v5 Airbrake gem. You can either:

1. follow the migration guide to migrate from airbrake v4 to v5, or
2. lock airbrake to v4, in the gemfile, e.g. something like gem 'airbrake', '~> 4.3.4'

Answer 2

Have you check the Migration guide on the github repo?

Old option | New option  | required?
api_key    | project_key | required
.......    | ........... | ........

not working getting the same error undefined method `project_key' for #<SimpleConfig::Config:0x00000007d8c4b0> (NoMethodError) – Rambling

The SimpleConfig class/module has nothing to do with Airbrake. – Rabelais

Answer 3

It seems that you did not lock airbrake's major version in Gemfile like this:

gem 'airbrake', '~> 4.3'

5th version introduced api changes which you're encountering. I'd suggest using above version lock for a quick fix, and then do a migration as described in guide
