Sidekiq Install - uninitialized constant ActiveRecord::Base (NameError) - ruby-on-rails

Question

I am trying to integrate Sidekiq with my Rails Mongoid app. I have been following the steps as outlined Here
I also have redis & mongodb running locally. However after I run bundle then when I try to start my server I get this error....
c:/RailsInstaller/Ruby1.9.3/lib/ruby/gems/1.9.1/gems/sidekiq-2.17.7/lib/sidekiq/rails.rb:4:in `hook_rails!': uninitialized constant ActiveRecord::Base (NameError)
from c:/RailsInstaller/Ruby1.9.3/lib/ruby/gems/1.9.1/gems/sidekiq-2.17.7/lib/sidekiq/rails.rb:16:in `block in <class:Rails>'

from C:/Users/example/Documents/Workspace/app/config/environment.rb:5:in `<top (required)>'
My environment.rb file is as follows...
# Load the rails application
require File.expand_path('../application', __FILE__)
# Initialize the rails application
App::Application.initialize!
I previously had resque with redis working with mongoid in this app, so its a sidekiq issue. I don't have a database.yml file since I am using mongoid. I also added the steps for kiqstand but I am getting the same error. Unsure how to resolve?
Edit: I'm 90% sure its because Sidekiq is looking for ActiveRecord, however I removed ActiveRecord cause I'm using Mongo instead. My application.rb has...
# remove activerecord and run off of mongo only
#require 'rails/all'
#http://stackoverflow.com/a/9327651/1026266
%w(
action_controller
action_mailer
active_resource
rails/test_unit
sprockets
).each do |framework|
begin
require "#{framework}/railtie"
rescue LoadError
end
end
Now I just need to figure out how to tell sidekiq to not look for it?

Lack of ActiveRecord was the issue, looks like there was a pull request - https://github.com/mperham/sidekiq/pull/1090
But that was rejected, so I just had to add ActiveRecord to my app and add a dummy database.yml file.
