Hi, Ive just downloaded and installed Ruby on Rails, on a windows xp machine. Then I tried the cookbook tutorial, and get NoMethodError in Recipe#New when I try http://localhost:3000/recipe/new/. I could not figure out the problem so I tried another tutorial, the todo list one, and the same thing happens(NoMethodError in todo#list when I try http://localhost:300/todo/ . Both of these occur right after the step where I add scaffold :todo, or scaffold :recipe in the controller. So, I figure my scaffold isnt getting built. Is this what it means? What can I do about it. I want to get into Ruby on Rails, but am stuck for now on the threshold. TIA, S _______________________________________________ Rails mailing list Rails-1W37MKcQCpIf0INCOvqR/iCwEArCW2h5@public.gmane.org http://lists.rubyonrails.org/mailman/listinfo/rails

I usually use the ''tail'' command on unix systems to continuously show me the log file while I develop. If there''s no equivalent on XP, just open /log/development.log and see what you get in there.

Hi,
I''m getting NoMethodError when I''m trying to save to the
database. Here
is the error.
NoMethodError in Person#create
undefined method `login'' for #<Person:0x378b728>
The error points to the below def. If I remove the if @person.save
statements, it will run through it without an error.
def create
@person = Person.new(params[:person])
if @person.save
flash[:notice] = ''Person was successfully created.''
redirect_to :action => ''list''
else
render :action => ''new''
end
end
Hope someone can help. Thanks in advance.

Hi, You need to provide more information for us to be able to provide you with a useful answer. I would suggest sending along snippets relevent Person model, SQL DDL for persons table and a stack trace. However I suspect that the error you are receiving is because you are trying to validate a column that does not exist in you database or in your model. -- Cheers, Peter Donald Blog: http://www.RealityForge.org On 12/10/05, oreo <raymondsiu-Re5JQEeQqe8AvxtiuMwx3w@public.gmane.org> wrote:> I''m getting NoMethodError when I''m trying to save to the database.

awesome - you were correct. login was a field that was no longer being used. Thanks!!! -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.

You are following an old tutorial. If you''re using Rails 2.3 (and I hope you are), try the tutorials at http://guides.rails.info .
