Panda Encoding Setup

[Loomis]

I've settled on Panda for my Video Project and am trying to get the
panda instance up and running until I try to call merb with the irb
book with : merb -i

<http://pandastream.com/docs/getting_started>

I'm stuck on the S3 steps getting the buckets set up:

cd /var/local/www/panda
merb -i
Panda::Setup.create_s3_bucket
Panda::Setup.create_sdb_domains

right after issueing merb -i I get this output:

/usr/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/merb-core-1.0.9/lib/merb-core/controller/
merb_controller.rb:479:in `method_added': You tried to define form on
Videos but it was already defined on Merb::Controller. If you meant to
override a core method, use override! (Merb::ReservedError)

Note, when I had installed the EC2 instance for Panda I had to do a
bunch of gem updates, among them, rvideo, amazon_sdb, and starting
with merb_helpers.

Any ideas where to go from here?

Hey Brian,

I get the same error after typing merb -i. I'm on CentOS. Were you
able to resolve it?

Thanks,
Bharat.

Hi,

This was due to an issue with the new Merb already defining the form
method. I've committed a fix to master and stable. Let me know how it
goes.
