Why am I getting the following error when I run rails console?

NOTE: Gem.available? is deprecated, use Specification::find_by_name. It will be removed on or after 2011-11-01.

The newrelic.yml file in question (from the Cedar section of this guide):

---
<%= ENV["RAILS_ENV"] %>:
  error_collector:
    capture_source: true
    enabled: true
    ignore_errors: ActionController::RoutingError
  apdex_t: 0.5
  ssl: false
  monitor_mode: true
  license_key: <%= ENV["NEW_RELIC_LICENSE_KEY"] %>
  developer_mode: false
  app_name: <%= ENV["NEW_RELIC_APPNAME"] %>
  transaction_tracer:
    record_sql: obfuscated
    enabled: true
    stack_trace_threshold: 0.5
    transaction_threshold: apdex_f
  capture_params: false
  log_level: info

It parses fine with http://yaml-online-parser.appspot.com/...

Your error message indicates that <%= ENV["RAILS_ENV"] %> is coming up empty so the first line of your YAML is just a single colon and that's not very useful.

I'd guess that you're using Rails 3 and ENV['RAILS_ENV'] is no longer available (note: I know it isn't around in 3.1 but I'm not certain about 3.0). Try using this:

<%= Rails.env %>:

instead, Rails.env should be available in any Rails versions that you're likely to be using. And if that doesn't work, you can try going straight to:

production:

since that will probably be your Heroku environment anyway.
