sinatra-flash gem isn't working

[trekr5]

Hello,

Attempted to use the sinatra-flash gem with my app and get the following error of "undefined local variable or method 'flash'" when I try to run my app.

Background

my_app

require 'sinatra/base'
require 'sinatra/flash'

class GGInfraUserManager < Sinatra::Base
enable :sessions
register Sinatra::Flash

...(rest of app)

post '/' do

flash[:error] = "Password must be a minimum of 8 characters" unless new_password.match /.{8}/
log.info "#{Time.now} password meets policy requirements"
end
redirect '/'
end

in my view file..(at the top).

× <%= flash.now[:error] %>

Can someone please tell me how to correct this error so that the flash functionality will work?

Many thanks

I'm seeing the same thing. Has it simply stopped working because of some change in Sinatra?
