Db:migrate to add colum bombs

Rails
1

Hi
I get the following when I try and run “rake db:migrate” (I"m running un
Ubuntu linux)

********** code **********
(in /)
== AddRpts: migrating

– add_column(“rpts”, :integer, {:limit=>3})
rake aborted!
You have a nil object when you didn’t expect it!
You might have expected an instance of Array.
The error occurred while evaluating nil.[]
********** code **********

Everything was working fine until my last ‘generate’ to create a
migration like so “ruby script/generate migration add_rpts”

My Migration looks like this:

********** code **********
class AddRpts < ActiveRecord::Migration
def self.up
add_column :rpts, :integer
end

def self.down
remove_column :rpts
end
end
********** code **********

Lastly I did some research on this problem and one suggestion was that I
wasn’t running “Edge Rails”. So I did the upgrade but I get the EXACT
same error.

I upgraded using the command “sudo rake rails:freeze:edge”

Any help will be grateful.

Thanks.

you’re missing the table property.

add_column :table_name, :column_name, :type
remove_column :table_name, :column_name

Hahaha…

Oh my goodness! Those trees blocked my view of the forest.

Thanks very much.
