Using the console, I capture a db record into the variable
''record''.
I then try to save it with the record.save method which returns
false. There is nothing in the log files to indicate why the save
failed. Can anyone please tell me what I might investigate to
determine why the save fails? A transcript of my console session is
shown below. Thanks for any input.

Or examine record.errors for validation failures. Also consider adding the following to your ~/.irbrc file. This will output all logging to the screen and you can look at the SQL query itself. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.

Hi Doug, You can check the validation errors after the save to figure out if the validations caused the failed save...>> record = Member.find(1) >> record.save >> record.errors.full_messages.inspectCheers, Jits 2009/12/22 doug <ddjolley-Re5JQEeQqe8AvxtiuMwx3w@public.gmane.org>> Using the console, I capture a db record into the variable ''record''. > I then try to save it with the record.save method which returns > false.

> You can check the validation errors after the save to figure out if the > validations caused the failed save...Fred, you''re absolutely right. It was a validation issue that caused the failed save. I had already figured that out using the techniques offered by the other 2 contributors. All is well and I am a happy camper.
