I'm having a scaffolding problem

Rails
1

I have a model columns, and here’s the table data:

class CreateComments < ActiveRecord::Migration
def self.up
create_table :comments do |t|
t.column :title, :string, :limit => 100
t.column :comment, :text
t.column :meeting_id, :integer
t.column :user_id, :integer
t.column :posted_at, :datetime
t.column :comment_id, :integer
end
end

def self.down
drop_table :comments
end
end

Then, I did script/generate scaffold comment comment

It created all the files. However, when I try to “create new” it
throws an error:
http://rafb.net/paste/results/zaAxQb54.html

I’m totally bewildered. What could be causing this error? There are
no validations in the model.

Thanks,
Ben L.

Does this do the trick if you modify your class definition as follows:

class Comment < ActiveRecord::Base
set_table_name “comments”

You probably should have done it like…

script/generate scaffold Comment

you might want to
script/destroy model comment
script/destroy controller comment

and try again

Craig -

Thanks for letting me know about the script/destroy! I didn’t know
about that hehe. What you said didn’t work, but I think it all had to
do with my sql. I did rake db:migrate VERSION=0 then did rake
db:migrate, then regenerated the scaffold and it worked. Thanks for
the help, it’s much appreciated!
