Circular dependency detected while autoloading constant

[Sjors Provoost]

I'm trying to upgrade to Thinking Sphinx 3.1, but keep running into a mysterious error on my Mac. 

I have a trivial model UserAgent with no dependencies and no code in it:

class UserAgent < ActiveRecord::Base

end

indices/user_agent.rb:

ThinkingSphinx::Index.define :user_agent, :with => :active_record do

  indexes :name

end

I get the following error when running the index task:

rake ts:index

Generating configuration to /Users/sjors/dev/colligative/config/development.sphinx.conf

rake aborted!

Circular dependency detected while autoloading constant UserAgent

I put a more detailed output as well as my Gemfile and sphinx.yml in this gist: https://gist.github.com/Sjors/d53c8a94c8599ebfe22e

Running Ruby 2.1.0, Rails 4.0.3 (also tried 4.0.0), thinking-sphinx 3.1.0 and a Postgres database.

Hi Sjors

What happens in a rails console when you refer to the model (by just entering UserAgent)?

Hi Pat,

Sorry I missed your response... 

When I type "UserAgent" in the console I get the following error:

2.1.0p0 :001 > UserAgent

RuntimeError: Circular dependency detected while autoloading constant UserAgent

When I type "UserAgent.count" in the console I get a different error:

2.1.0p0 :001 > UserAgent.count

LoadError: Unable to autoload constant UserAgent, expected .../app/indices/user_agent.rb to define it

Ah. Try renaming app/indices/user_agent.rb to app/indices/user_agent_index.rb

Thanks, that did the trick!
