How do I fix 'Unprocessed view path found' error with ExceptionNotifier plugin in rails 2.1?

Solution

You ought to upgrade to the newest Exception Notification plugin which is in its new home at GitHub.

Problem

After upgrading a rails 1.2 website to 2.1, the ExceptionNotifier plugin no longer works, complaining about this error: ActionView::TemplateFinder::InvalidViewPath: Unprocessed view path found: "/path/to/appname/vendor/plugins/exception_notification/lib/../views". Set your view paths with #append_view_path, #prepend_view_path, or #view_paths=. What causes it and how do I fix it?
