    copied!<p>Having a weird issue with Rails 3.2.1. Working with a legacy database with icky column names and I'm trying to clean them up in my model. The following model works fine in HTML, but responding with JSON or XML throws a <code>stack level too deep</code> error:</p> <pre><code>class Order &lt; ActiveRecord::Base set_table_name 'ordersum' set_primary_key 'ordernbr' alias_attribute 'id','ordernbr' alias_attribute 'customer_id', 'custid' alias_attribute 'shipping_name', 'sname' alias_attribute 'shipping_company','scompany' alias_attribute 'shipping_address1','saddress1' alias_attribute 'shipping_address2','saddress2' alias_attribute 'shipping_city','scity' alias_attribute 'shipping_state','sstate' alias_attribute 'shipping_zip','zip' alias_attribute 'shipping_country','scountry' alias_attribute 'shipping_phone','sphone' alias_attribute 'shipping_method','shipvia' alias_attribute 'subtotal','product' alias_attribute 'shipping', 'freight' alias_attribute 'handling', 'handling' alias_attribute 'total', 'ordertot' alias_attribute 'transaction_id', 'vsTransactionId' alias_attribute 'reference_number', 'vsrefnbr' alias_attribute 'approval_code', 'vsappcode' alias_attribute 'created_on', 'entereddtm' end class OrdersController &lt; ApplicationController respond_to :html, :xml, :json def index @orders = Order.all respond_with @orders end end </code></pre> <p>Order is stack level too deep with no stack trace.</p> <p><strong>Edit #1</strong> Framework/Full trace had 1 item: </p> <p><code>actionpack (3.2.1) lib/action_dispatch/middleware/reloader.rb:70</code></p> <p><strong>Edit #2</strong> Found some additional details after digging. Did a rails console and an <code>Order.find</code> and got the error below. Please note that <code>Order.all</code>works fine.</p> <pre><code>C:\Users\Rich\App&gt;rails console Loading development environment (Rails 3.2.1) irb(main):001:0&gt; Order.find(1) ←[1m←[36mOrder Load (1.0ms)←[0m ←[1mSELECT `ordersum`.* FROM `ordersum` WHERE `ordersum`.`ordernbr` = 1 LIMIT 1←[0m SystemStackError: stack level too deep from C:/ruby/lib/ruby/1.9.1/logger.rb:443 irb(main):002:0&gt; </code></pre>
