Errors are not being added

Rails
1

In the following code, I’m trying to add an error ‘:promo’, but this
error doesn’t seem to add when I debug it. Does anyone have any idea why
this isn’t working for me?

@business = Business.new(params[:business])
@business.errors.add(:promo)

Any ideas?

Assuming that “:promo” is a field of the @business model try this:

@business.errors.add(:promo, “Your error message”)

So the error added must be a field of the @business model?

I tried this and it didn’t work.

You need to provide some more context. How are you determining that
this doesn’t work? Can you post the complete code for your method,
rather than just two lines?
