Getting `NoMethodError` error when trying to use ActiveJob::Exceptions retry_on method

For some reason, I'm getting an error when I am trying to use ActiveJob::Exceptions retry_on method. The docs show this usage:

class RemoteServiceJob < ActiveJob::Base
  retry_on CustomAppException # defaults to 3s wait, 5 attempts

  ...
  ...
  ...
end

But when I do this, I'm getting an undefined method error:

"undefined method `retry_on'...(NoMethodError)"

My code is exactly like the above, except that I am retrying on a different error. The class where I am attempting to do this is a job that inherits from a BaseJob classt that inherits from ActiveJob::Base.

Does anyone have any idea why I might be getting this result? Why wouldn't the method be defined if I'm extending ActiveJob::Base?

Because retry_on got added to Rails 5.1. It is not available before 5.1. As you said, you are using Rails 4, so the exception is legitimate.
