Rails can't see my controller

Given:

Two controllers under /app/controllers named:

Problem:

When I run rails command (i.e. rails c) this is what I get:

ruby-1.9.2-p290 :001 > CustomersController
 => CustomersController 
ruby-1.9.2-p290 :002 > HomeController
NameError: uninitialized constant HomeController
    from /home/aaron/.rvm/gems/ruby-1.9.2-p290/gems/rake-0.8.7/lib/rake.rb:2503:in `const_missing'
    from (irb):2
    from /home/aaron/.rvm/gems/ruby-1.9.2-p290/gems/railties-3.0.9/lib/rails/commands/console.rb:44:in `start'
    from /home/aaron/.rvm/gems/ruby-1.9.2-p290/gems/railties-3.0.9/lib/rails/commands/console.rb:8:in `start'
    from /home/aaron/.rvm/gems/ruby-1.9.2-p290/gems/railties-3.0.9/lib/rails/commands.rb:23:in `<top (required)>'
    from script/rails:6:in `require'
    from script/rails:6:in `<main>'

So whats the deal? Why isn't HomeController being recognized by my application?

Edit:

My home_controller.rb file:

class HomeController < ApplicationController
  def index
  end

  def sign_up
  end

  def faq
  end

  def terms
  end

  def privacy
  end

  def feedback
  end

end

Theres not much in it.

works for me with Rails 3.0.7 ... which version of Rails are you using?

There was a problem with old versions of Rake in the newer Rails versions, and I noticed that you're using a really old version of Rake..

Try to put this in your Gemfile:

gem 'rake' , '>= 0.9.1'

then do a "bundle update"

and try to do "rails c" again..

does it work for you afterwards?
