Hoping someone call tell me what I''ve done wrong. I was attempting to create a "static" scaffold (already have the dynamic one) and received an error message: "error Before updating scaffolding from new DB schema, try creating a table for your model (Company)" I already created a scaffold for Company (class CompanyController). I want to create some better views. I chose one action / view that I''d like to implement ruby scaffold/generate company post , that is when I got the above error. I made some changes to the database by changing some field names but that is all. Thanks Stuart
