I have seen a similar error with the cancan gem

If you're using the gem cancan, and you have load_and_authorize_resource in your HomeController, it's trying to load the Home model which doesn't exist. Instead, trying using authorize_resource class: false, so

class HomeController < ApplicationController
  authorize_resource class: false
  # rest of your code
end

For more information on using cancan on non RESTful controllers, see the Wiki specifically about it

Hope this helps
