validate :on not working

[Rails 3.2.1, Ruby 1.9.3]

in a Project model
I am trying to modify the :location attribute validation  ( specific
LocationValidator  using Geocoder..)
I need  now to set it  on create  only

so I wrote :
  validates :location, :location => { :on => :create }

but when I update the project instance, I get an error :

project.update_attributes(specific_payment:
partner[:specific_payment])
 => false

project.errors
=> #<ActiveModel::Errors:...
@messages={:location=>["?"]

if I add the location attribute in the update , then it works ...
location = project.geocode[:address]
project.update_attributes(specific_payment:
partner[:specific_payment], location: location)
=> true

so,   { :on => :create }  seems not to be working .. what could be
wrong ?

thanks for your feedback
