All, I have generated following model & controller class Contact < ActiveRecord::Base set_table_name "contact" set_primary_key "contact_id" end class ContactController < ApplicationController def index list render :action => 'list' end def contact end def list @contact_pages, @contacts = paginate :contact, :per_page => 10 end def show @contact = Contact.find(params[:id]) end def new @contact = Contact.new end def create @contact = Contact.new(params[:contact]) if @contact.save flash[:notice] = 'Contact was successfully created.' redirect_to :action => 'list' else render :action => 'new' end end def edit @contact = Contact.find(params[:id]) end def update @contact = Contact.find(params[:id]) if @contact.update_attributes(params[:contact]) flash[:notice] = 'Contact was successfully updated.' redirect_to :action => 'show', :id => @contact else render :action => 'edit' end end def destroy Contact.find(params[:id]).destroy redirect_to :action => 'list' end end But when I attempted to generated the scaffold using script/generate scaffold contact, I get a blank _form.rhtml. It looks like the following: <%= error_messages_for 'contact' %> <!--[form:contact]--> <!--[eoform:contact]--> But with the following model/controller it works fine: class Task < ActiveRecord::Base set_table_name "tasks" set_primary_key "task_id" end class TaskController < ApplicationController def index list render :action => 'list' end def task end def list @task_pages, @tasks = paginate :task, :per_page => 10 end def show @task = Task.find(params[:id]) end def new @task = Task.new end def create @task = Task.new(params[:task]) if @task.save flash[:notice] = 'Task was successfully created.' redirect_to :action => 'list' else render :action => 'new' end end def edit @task = Task.find(params[:id]) end def update @task = Task.find(params[:id]) if @task.update_attributes(params[:task]) flash[:notice] = 'Task was successfully updated.' redirect_to :action => 'show', :id => @task else render :action => 'edit' end end def destroy Task.find(params[:id]).destroy redirect_to :action => 'list' end end _form.rhtml <%= error_messages_for 'task' %> <!--[form:task]--> <p><label for="task_task_due_date">Task due date</label><br/> <%= datetime_select 'task', 'task_due_date' %></p> <p><label for="task_task_type">Task type</label><br/> <%= text_field 'task', 'task_type' %></p> <p><label for="task_task_notes">Task notes</label><br/> <%= text_field 'task', 'task_notes' %></p> <p><label for="task_task_performer">Task performer</label><br/> <%= text_field 'task', 'task_performer' %></p> <p><label for="task_task_complete_date">Task complete date</label><br/> <%= datetime_select 'task', 'task_complete_date' %></p> <p><label for="task_task_source">Task source</label><br/> <%= text_field 'task', 'task_source' %></p> <p><label for="task_task_reschedule_date">Task reschedule date</label><br/> <%= datetime_select 'task', 'task_reschedule_date' %></p> <p><label for="task_last_modified_date">Last modified date</label><br/> <%= datetime_select 'task', 'last_modified_date' %></p> <p><label for="task_last_modified_by">Last modified by</label><br/> <%= text_field 'task', 'last_modified_by' %></p> <p><label for="task_complete_not_applicable">Complete not applicable</label><br/> <%= text_field 'task', 'complete_not_applicable' %></p> <!--[eoform:task]--> Any thoughts?
