Trying to accomplish something similar to Checkbox Adds with HABTM utilizing a :through association so I can have a model in the middle. It does not want to play nice. MODELS --------------------------- in models/project.rb --------------------------- has_many :assignments, :dependent => true has_many :users, :through => :assignments --------------------------- in models/user.rb --------------------------- has_many :assignments, :dependent => true has_many :projects, :through => :assignments --------------------------- in models/assignment.rb --------------------------- belongs_to :user belongs_to :project VIEW ------------------------------- In views/projects/_form.rhtml: ------------------------------- <ul> <% User.find(:all, :order => "last_name ASC").each do |g| %> <li><%= check_box_tag ''assignment[user_ids][]'', g.id, @project.users.include?(g) %> <%= g.first_name %> <%= g.last_name %></li> <% end %> </ul> CONTROLLER --------------------------------------- in controllers/projects_controller.rb --------------------------------------- def update @project = Project.new(params[:project]) user = User.find(params["user"].to_i) assignment = Assignment.new @project.assignments << assignment user.assignments << assignment assignment.save if @project.update_attributes(params[:project]) flash[:notice] = ''Project was successfully updated.'' redirect_to :action => ''show'', :id => @project # raise params.inspect else render :action => ''edit'' end end The _form renders fine, and on commit i get ------------------------------------------------------------ ActiveRecord::RecordNotFound in ProjectsController#update ------------------------------------------------------------ Couldn''t find User with ID=0 RAILS_ROOT: script/../config/..
