I'm upgrading a rails 4.2 site to 6.0 and am receiving
uninitialized constant Authlogic::Session::Validation
when I try to load a form, presumably because the Validation module was removed from Authlogic and some old gem/code is still trying to reference it. If I use the authenticity_token=false option for form_with, it goes away, but obviously I don't want to do that.
So, somewhere, somehow something is referencing this old module. Here's the rub:
- I've searched my entire code base for "Authlogic::Session::Validation". Nothing.
- I've searched my entire gem tree for "Authlogic::Session::Validation". Nothing.
It's like it is configured as a plug-in for generating form authenticity tokens or something, but I'm at a loss for where that configuration would be or how to find it. I mean, for that error, that string has to be somewhere, right?
Here's the relevant part (my code is in moments.haml) of the callstack when I get my error:

EDIT: I was getting the same error when I was setting the csrf-token meta-tag when calling form_authenticity_token (which is referenced in the above callstack). I forgot I had commented that out in an attempt to debug.
