Hi,
I was wondering if anybody knew what ''<some type> expected, got
Fixnum''
means? My code looks like the following:
begin
anevent = Event.new
anevent.title = params["event"]["title"]
anevent = session[:user_id]
com = Community.find(params[:id])
com.events << anevent
rescue Exception => exc
...
end
But I get an exception.
Thanks a lot.

<some type> expected, got Fixnum: that means that you try to assign a fixnum (an integer...) into something else, and it is not possible to cast the fixnum into that something (okay, I''m not sure this helps, I find the error quite clear if you read it) Your line: anevent = session[:user_id] is suspicious. You try to assign session[:user_id] to anevent, and there''s probably no way you can cast a Fixnum into an Event object, On 5/30/06, Sam Donaldson <samonderous@gmail.com> wrote:> > Hi, > > I was wondering if anybody knew what ''<some type> expected, got Fixnum'' > means?
