I am stuck on an issue with running prawn in production.

I have followed the Railscast (revised http://railscasts.com/episodes/153-pdfs-with-prawn-revised?view=asciicast) pretty much to the letter. It works great in my development environment (Mac OS X 10.9.1) but causes unicorn to falter on my server. My production server is (Redhat => Red Hat Enterprise Linux Server release 6.4 (Santiago)). I have the gem installed via Gemfile.

Gemfile:

    gem 'prawn'
    gem 'prawn-qrcode'

Controller: (show action)

    def show
      #@classroom = Classroom.find(params[:id])
      @classroom = find_classroom

      @page_title = @classroom.location.name
      @classroom_alt = @classroom.location.name + " - " + @classroom.room_number
      @building = find_building(@classroom.location_id)
      @owner = Owner.find(@classroom.owner_id)
      @room_schedule_contact = RoomScheduleContact.find_by rmrecnbr:(@classroom.rmrecnbr)
      @building_image = @building.picture.url(:medium).to_s
      @building_sign_image = @building.building_sign.url(:thumb).to_s
      @search = Classroom.search(params[:search])

      #@classroom_herprod = Building.find(params[:location_id]).building_short_code
      respond_to do |format|
        format.html # show.html.erb
        format.png  { render :qrcode => "http://rooms.lsa.umich.edu/classrooms/#{@classroom.facility_code_heprod}", :level => :l, :unit => 8 }
        format.pdf do
         pdf = ClassroomPdf.new(@classroom)

          send_data pdf.render, type: "application/pdf",
                                disposition: "inline"
        end
      end
    end

I have a pdfs directory with a classroom_pdf.rb file that includes the following.

    class ClassroomPdf < Prawn::Document
      def initialize(classroom)
        super(top_margin: 70)

        text "This is a pdf"
      end
    end

(This is stripped down from what I had, but it is the most basic version that works on my dev system and fails on production).

I am running the following

ruby 2.1.0p0 (2013-12-25 revision 44422) [x86_64-linux] gem 'rails', '4.0.2'

The error in the unicorn.stderr.log is as follows.

    #gem "meta_search"
    gem "ransack"
    gem 'annotate', ">=2.6.0"

    group :production do
      gem 'unicorn'
    end

Any ideas?

It turns out that I needed to manually reboot unicorn for it to properly load the new gem file.
