hey all,
I use validates_uniqueness_of :name.
In script/console when i do find_or_create_by_name(‘bob’) and that
bob already exists I get @errors=> name has already been taken
taken.
But in my createname.rhtml it doesn’t display anything though I did
put <%= error_messages_for :user %>.
this is my controller:
@user = find_or_create_by_name(‘bob’)
if @user.save
redirect_to :list
else
render :action=>‘createname’
end
well, if i put validates_uniqueness_of :name, then obviously even if I
use find_or_create I cannot create something that is a duplicate and
indeed it doesn’t get created, the only problem is that I don’t get
the error on the page though I do get the error in script/console
