[Rails] Problem with plurals, migrations?

Hi,

Ruby 1.8.4
Rails 1.1.4
Windows XP Pro

I''m hitting an issue with migrations that I suspect relates to
pluralization.  Here''s the migration:

class Hardware < ActiveRecord::Migration   
   def self.up
      create_table :hardware do |h|
         h.column :vendor, :string, :limit => 32
         h.column :model,  :string, :limit => 32
      end

      Hardware.create(:vendor => ''Foo'', :model =>
''Bar'')
   end

   def self.down
      drop_table :hardware
   end
end

Here''s the model:

class Hardware < ActiveRecord::Base
   set_table_name "hardware"
   has_many :schedules
end

When I run the migration the table creation occurs, but then I get this
error:

-- create({:vendor=>"Foo", :model=>"Bar"})
rake aborted!
undefined method `create'' for
#<ActiveRecord::ConnectionAdapters::PostgreSQLAdapter:0x39293cc>

My guess is that it was expecting a "hardwares" table instead of
"hardware", and is getting confused.  But, I didn''t see a
method in the
docs to set the table name ala ActiveRecord.

Or am I missing something obvious here?  I checked the docs and Google,
but didn''t find anything.

Below is the full trace.

Thanks,

Dan

Could the problem be that you''ve got two classes named Hardware?
Maybe name the migration class CreateHardware and see what happens.
