I have used will\_paginate with Rails 1.2.3, 1.2.6, and 2.0.2. See if  
adding ‘:all’ does anything for you:

@exams = Exam.paginate(:all,  
:page =\>  
params[:page],  
:per\_page =\> 10)

I assume that you have more than 10 exam records. If this doesn’t  
help, please provide any log info that might help.
