Problems learning rake db:migrate

i added

, force => true

to the migration file which was created when i generated the model.
can anyone tell me what is going wrong here?

class CreateStories < ActiveRecord::Migration
def self.up
create_table :stories, force => true do |t|
t.string :name
t.string :link

  t.timestamps
end

end

def self.down
drop_table :stories
end
end

#######################################
ERROR:

undefined method ‘force’ for
ActiveRecord::ConnectionAdapters::SQLite3Adapter:0x51f3bf0

undefined method ‘force’ for
ActiveRecord::ConnectionAdapters::SQLite3Adapter:0x51f3bf0

Should be :force => true – note the colon, making it a symbol.

wow, thank you. I need to be more careful to look and see if it is
something i can figure out before i come asking for help…

And like all of us, sometimes we become blind looking at the code for
so long that we just need a second pair of eyes. :slight_smile:
