I know about this error. It appears when you put an END in a wrong
place or forget to close a parentesis etc .. But I have only a module
helper with two lines in a file named "noticias_helper.rb"

Module NoticiasHelper
end

I have checked with hexdump to see if there are an strange character
and it is not

hexdump -c app/helpers/noticias_helper.rb
0000000 M o d u l e N o t i c i a s
H
0000010 e l p e r \n e n d \n
hexdump app/helpers/noticias_helper.rb

0000010 6c65 6570 0a72 6e65 0a64

And this is my error message in development.log

I am using ferret (0.11.4) and act_as_ferret 0.4.0

In which part on the program I need to look in order to catch my bug?

Best Regards

sometimes the most obvious are the hardest errors to find.

Your welcome.
