Hey all,
I am getting syntax errors in my schema.rb when I run rake
db:test:prepare. In my migrations, I have created columns that look
like this…
add_column :prizes, :“paypal_amount”, :decimal, :precision => 8, :scale
=> 2, :null=>false, :default=>0
and this works fine and creates the column correctly in the DB. The
corresponding line in schema.rb that gets created looks like this (the
paypal_error column is shown for context)…
…
t.column “paypal_amount”, :decimal, :limit => 8, :default =>
#BigDecimal:43fac10,‘0.0’,4(8), :null => false
t.column “paypal_error”, :string
Now when I run rake db:test:prepare, I get errors like the following…
C:/InstantRails-2.0-win/rails_apps/chicago/db/schema.rb:93: syntax
error, unexpe
cted ‘,’, expecting kEND
t.column “paypal_error”, :string
It seems that the “BigDecimal” syntax that rails creates in schema.rb is
not correct, but I’m not sure if I did something wrong or if this is a
bug. I tried recreating schema.rb running rake db:schema:dump, but it
did not help. I’m running Rails 2.1.1 with postgres 8.3.1.
Any help is appreciated.
Thanks,
Keith
