no notification when notify_release_stages set in Sinatra app

[ghost]

With my Sinatra app running in a staging environment, I am generating a bugsnag notification using Bugsnag.notify. When notify_release_stages is set to ["staging"], the error does not show up in the project's dashboard, even though I've confirmed that release_stage is indeed set to "staging". If I comment out notify_release_stages in my bugsnag config file, the error successfully appears in the dashboard.

I may have figured out the problem here. I've been setting config.release_stage to settings.environment which is how Sinatra tracks its environment, but lo and behold settings.environment is a symbol rather than a string. I'm going to test if this is causing the issue.

Awesome, let me know if this is the case and I will stop looking! Thanks!

Yep, looks like that's what was happening. My bad, thanks for looking into it.
