Description

When installing foreman if the bootdisk gem/package is already installed prior to the installation script being run the initial migration will fail.

The reason being is that this commit:

https://github.com/theforeman/foreman_bootdisk/commit/4cdc72e0823f5e8caf0304319592fd2efdbcec83#diff-b9eb6b264b8b4855a4d54eef890dc45dR5

references the Setting class, yet if the migration is being run with an empty database the Setting class will fail to load properly.

The cause of this is that line 21 of the Setting class includes:

audited :only => [:value], :on => [:update], :allow_mass_assignment => true

which internally within the audited Gem calls self.column_names. Since the table has not been created yet this fails and active record captures the traceback so the rest of the class (after line 21 does not get executed).

Fixed in b500d4e4acb9ee7ae8cd1395d6cab7a65b7a24b1 and bootdisk 2.0.8.

I was able to reproduce by manually hacking away most of the settings model, but remain unable to reproduce it in a plain DB migration on a clean slate. Very strange!
