I have a series of migrations which I have used over the last 4 months without any problems. I have followed the pattern of deleting and recreating the tables, doing the migrations and then loading fixtures. This has all worked successfully until yesterday, when I started to get an "uninitialized constat" error. Here''s the error and the stack trace: c:\mick>rake db:migrate --trace (in c:/mick) ** Invoke db:migrate (first_time) ** Invoke environment (first_time) ** Execute environment ** Execute db:migrate rake aborted! uninitialized constant RenameIssuedCodes c:/ruby/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/activesupport-2.1.0/lib/active_support/dependenci es.rb:278:in `load_missing_constant'' c:/ruby/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/activesupport-2.1.0/lib/active_support/dependenci es.rb:467:in `const_missing'' c:/ruby/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/activesupport-2.1.0/lib/active_support/dependenci es.rb:479:in `const_missing'' c:/ruby/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/activesupport-2.1.0/lib/active_support/inflector. rb:283:in `constantize'' c:/ruby/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/activesupport-2.1.0/lib/active_support/core_ext/s tring/inflections.rb:143:in `constantize'' c:/ruby/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/activerecord-2.1.0/lib/active_record/migration.rb :456:in `migrations'' c:/ruby/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/activerecord-2.1.0/lib/active_record/connection_a dapters/mysql_adapter.rb:15:in `inject'' c:/ruby/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/activerecord-2.1.0/lib/active_record/migration.rb :440:in `each'' c:/ruby/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/activerecord-2.1.0/lib/active_record/migration.rb :440:in `inject'' c:/ruby/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/activerecord-2.1.0/lib/active_record/migration.rb :440:in `migrations'' c:/ruby/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/activerecord-2.1.0/lib/active_record/migration.rb :406:in `migrate'' c:/ruby/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/activerecord-2.1.0/lib/active_record/migration.rb :357:in `up'' c:/ruby/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/activerecord-2.1.0/lib/active_record/migration.rb :340:in `migrate'' c:/ruby/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/rails-2.1.0/lib/tasks/databases.rake:99 c:/ruby/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/rake-0.8.3/lib/rake.rb:617:in `call'' c:/ruby/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/rake-0.8.3/lib/rake.rb:617:in `execute'' c:/ruby/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/rake-0.8.3/lib/rake.rb:612:in `each'' c:/ruby/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/rake-0.8.3/lib/rake.rb:612:in `execute'' c:/ruby/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/rake-0.8.3/lib/rake.rb:578:in `invoke_with_call_c hain'' c:/ruby/lib/ruby/1.8/monitor.rb:242:in `synchronize'' c:/ruby/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/rake-0.8.3/lib/rake.rb:571:in `invoke_with_call_c hain'' c:/ruby/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/rake-0.8.3/lib/rake.rb:564:in `invoke'' c:/ruby/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/rake-0.8.3/lib/rake.rb:2019:in `invoke_task'' c:/ruby/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/rake-0.8.3/lib/rake.rb:1997:in `top_level'' c:/ruby/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/rake-0.8.3/lib/rake.rb:1997:in `each'' c:/ruby/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/rake-0.8.3/lib/rake.rb:1997:in `top_level'' c:/ruby/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/rake-0.8.3/lib/rake.rb:2036:in `standard_exceptio n_handling'' c:/ruby/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/rake-0.8.3/lib/rake.rb:1991:in `top_level'' c:/ruby/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/rake-0.8.3/lib/rake.rb:1970:in `run'' c:/ruby/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/rake-0.8.3/lib/rake.rb:2036:in `standard_exceptio n_handling'' c:/ruby/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/rake-0.8.3/lib/rake.rb:1967:in `run'' c:/ruby/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/rake-0.8.3/bin/rake:31 c:/ruby/bin/rake:16:in `load'' c:/ruby/bin/rake:16 I have a model called issued_code.rb which looks like this: class IssuedCode < ActiveRecord::Base belongs_to :CodeRequest end The migration 002_create_issued_codes.rb: class CreateIssuedCodes < ActiveRecord::Migration def self.up create_table :issued_codes do |t| t.integer :code_request_id t.text :file_text t.datetime :date_issued t.timestamps end end def self.down drop_table :issued_codes end end I''m baffled - any ideas on how to fix this?

Never mind, I found the problem. I had an empty migration called xxx_rename_issued_codes.rb. Don''t know where it came from, but when I deleted it, the migrations worked just fine. LG -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.
