Rails - Dec 2008 - Problem with Acts As Versioned and Save v. Save Without Revision

Okay, I had a legacy table that had no versioning. I added Acts As
Versioned, by adding the "version" column to said database, and adding
the acts_as_versioned to the model. When I tried to "save()" a record,
I got an "uninitialized constant ActiveRecord::Table::Version" The
field existed in the database, and the table_versions table was there.
When I used "save_without_revision()", the record saved without a
problem.

Any clue on what I need to do to fix this?

aav also requires an xxx_versions table (e.g., foo_versions if you''re
versioning foos).  Check the documentation; there''s a class-level
method added to models that acts_as_versioned that will create the
version table for you if you add it to a migration.

Sorry for the delay answering. There is a xxx_versions table.

Crud. I think I see the problem. This is a legacy db, which has a
table named ''bases,'' which is a naughty table name. The
singular is
''basis,'' which I can''t inflect because it''s
a (kinda) reserved name.

So, I guess I can magically rename the table "basis_versions" and fix
it. I''ll give it a whirl.
