Rails - Mar 2006 - Problems with validates_presence_of...anybody?

Hello everybody,
I have been developing small applications in Rails from quite some time. 
But lately, I came across a bug which I have not been able to correct.
If anybody could help me with it, would be of great help thankyou.

Actually, the problem is that I have a form in my application with some 
set of fields.
Now what "validates_presence_of" should do is that if I submit the
form
without entering the fields should raise an error.

But instead its giving me an error :

 Errno::EISDIR in Users#create

Is a directory - script/../config/../public/files/

And yes, I forgot to mention that I am also uploading a file in my 
application. And that file is being stored in {RAILS_ROOT}/public/files/
If anybody could help me. Please.
Thankyou.

sounds like your script trying to upload the file to 
{RAILS_ROOT}/public/files/ because no file.

Have you seen file_column ? it simplifies and its own validations come 
so handy http://www.kanthak.net/opensource/file_column/
