NoMethodError: undefined method `set_rgeo_factory_for_column'

[Anuj]

Apologies if this is very newbie question, but I have tried to solve it for a couple of days with zero luck.

I tried installing activerecord-postgis-adapter as per the README but am unable to create the model instance as I keep getting the error mentioned below on the code pasted below that.

NoMethodError: undefined method `set_rgeo_factory_for_column'

Here are what my different files look like:

Location.rb (the model)

#self.rgeo_factory_generator = RGeo::Geos.factory_generator
 set_rgeo_factory_for_column(:coordinates,
 RGeo::Geographic.spherical_factory(:srid => 4326) )

Console

irb(main):001:0> loc = Location.create
NoMethodError: undefined method `set_rgeo_factory_for_column' for Location

Gemfile

gem 'rgeo'
gem 'rgeo-activerecord'
gem 'activerecord-postgis-adapter'

config/application.rb

require 'rails/all'

#require 'active_record/connection_adapters/postgis_adapter/railtie'
#require "#{Rails.root}/lib/rgeo"

config/database.yml

development:
  <<: *default
  database: geoproject-api_development
  adapter: postgis
  schema_search_path: "public,postgis"

The lines of code commented above refer to the solutions I tried based on what was mentioned in various threads but didn't work for me.

I am using Rails 4.2.1.

Any help would be much appreciated!

I'm having the same problems. Can you tell me how you fixed this?

I got this working by using the activerecord-mysql2spatial-adapter gem and setting my adapter in database.yml to 'mysql2spatial'
