I'm experiencing the following error when updating my Rails-app from 4.0.0 to 4.1.0 (Ruby 2.3.1):

undefined method `setup' for #<ActiveRecord::Validations::UniquenessValidator

The corresponding code is:

validator = ActiveRecord::Validations::UniquenessValidator.new({attributes: column, scope: scope})
    validator.setup(self.class)
    validator.validate(self)

This error seems to be known when upgrading to Rails 4.2. In Rails 4.1 the setup method should only be deprecated, as a result I'm really confused now. Trying to replace "setup" with "initialize" as recommended in this first answer's comment does not work (as I'm on Rails 4.1).

I can reliably reproduce the error by up and downgrading between Rails 4.0.0 and Rails 4.1.0.

Any help appreciated!

As mentioned here, you can achieve this by passing class as an argument while initialising validator instance,

validator = ActiveRecord::Validations::UniquenessValidator.new({attributes: column, scope: scope, class: self.class})
validator.validate(self)
