Rails - Feb 2006 - Save only inserts null instead of actual values

Hi,

whenever I try to save my form, rails only enters null values in my 
database. I''m using sqlite, I thought that sqlite might be the problem,
but the problem remains when I switched to mysql. Here is my code:

controller:
class CollectionController < ApplicationController
  def new
    @collection = Collection.new
  end

  def create
    if request.get?
      redirect_to :action => ''new''
    elsif request.post?
      @collection = Collection.new(params[:collection])
      if @collection.save
        flash[:notice] = ''Collection was successfully
created.''
        redirect_to :action => ''list''
      else
        render :action => ''new''
      end
    end
  end
end

model:
class Collection < ActiveRecord::Base
  has_many :subcollections

  attr_accessor :name, :description, :index_date
end

database.yml:
development:
  adapter: sqlite3
  dbfile: db/dev.db

development.log - after submitting data with the form
Processing CollectionController#create (for 127.0.0.1 at 2006-02-08

I really don''t see it, I really don''t. It is probably
something very
stupid! All help is greatly appreciated.

Kind regards,

Nick

Nick,

I''m not 100% sure, but take out the attr_accessor declaration in your
model and see if that fixes things.  I don''t have any of those in any
of
my models (which save correctly) and I recall having a problem once
early on as a result of something similar.
