The scaffold generator can automatically create a PxFeed model based on the px_feeds table, but you''re (implicitly) telling it to look for a ''dummies'' table to create a Dummy model and DummiesController controller (''dummy'' -> ''dummies'', assuming this falls under the general pluralization rules). -faisal --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.

Rails assumes, that the table for a model called "dummy" is called "dummies", the table for a "user" model would be "users" etc. - unless you''ve configured Rails differently. That''s one of Rails'' main priciples, convention over configuration. I''d recommend a book called "Agile web development with Rails" - the first part walks you through the development of a simple shop app, which will address 90% of the problems you''ll come across eventually, the second is a great reference when you start building your own apps (and it also includes the basics of Ruby, so don''t worry about that). It''s definitely worth it - and look for the 2nd edition. http://pragmaticprogrammer.com/titles/rails --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.

Long term I''ll have to muck with the the configuration because the feed-on-feeds database is setup how it''s setup, ruby will have to work around it :( -Thufir --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.

The database should be called dummy or dummy_development ? change the YAML to match the database or the database to match the YAML? If the mountain won''t come to mohammed, then... I was thinking that ruby would automagically figure out the *_development in keeping with its automagically figuring out dummy and its plural dummies. -Thufir --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.
