time_zone.rb:270: warning: circular argument reference - now

Question

I'm using Ruby on Rails, and I installed all the necessary applications and updates for gems. I already exhausted/researched most of all possible answer for this error and tried all of it, but still am having no luck.

Is there a way to access these .rb files to make necessary changes?

The problem seems to be caused by the higher version of ruby (In my case rails 3.2.13 and ruby 2.2) and using an older version of rails. One solution in which worked for me was to use ruby 2.0 and to update my gem file (RVM Capistrano).

gem 'rvm-capistrano', require: false

run the bundle install command. After that everything worked as expected.
