resolves #1017 on master

[aaron-effron]

When I check out this branch, I get a NoMethodError in CatalogController, namely:

"undefined method `enable_renewals' for #AppConfig:0x00000106813e98"

With the following being the code trace:

  when 'admin'
    can :manage, :all
    unless AppConfig.first.enable_renewals
      cannot :renew, Reservation
    end
    cannot :appoint, :superuser

Not exactly sure why this is happening because enable_renewals is defined as true in the schema - perhaps a mixup between a symbol and a method?

Did you try resetting your database? It's possible that this has to do with jumping between branches? I'm not on Linux right now so I can't check this locally but if you start with a freshly-seeded DB everything should work (although this branch should be hard to test locally... see my comments in #1017).
