When I run “ruby script/generate model users” or “ruby script/generate migration users” (just as a test to see what number the migrations is going to give me as a first run on a newly created project) I get something like 20081026044945\_create\_users.rb when it should be 001\_create\_users.rb Man, I have been trying to figure this out all day. I uninstalled rails and re-installed and tried all kinds of stuff and I cant seem to get this to work. I am using Eclipse as my IDE with the APTANA plugin. I have ruby 1.8 installed and rails 2 .x.x installed. Has anyone else had this problem. I cant seem to find an answer from a past post. Thanks! ---

There is nothing wrong. This is the new way Rails 2.x creates migration. It doesn’t seem like it, but it is in fact much easier to maintain. PS: in the future, don’t flood the list with the exact same question. ---

Yea sorry about that. It took over 2 hours for the first one to come up. I thought it didn’t go through. On Oct 26, 4:05 am, Fernando P. [removed\_email\_address@domain.invalid](mailto:removed_email_address@domain.invalid)
