I''m receiving the "Called id for nil, which would mistakenly be 4 -- if you really wanted the id of nil, use object_id" Error Message, when my controller tries to get an object''s id. In my page users can register, login, create new game entries, rate them and leave a review. the create method in the ratings controller is the exact same as in the review controller. (with different names of course) def create @game = Game.find_by_id(params[:game_id]) @rating = Rating.new(params[:rating]) @rating.game_id = @game.id @rating.user_id = current_user.id end Giving a rating works perfectly, but assigning the game.id to @review.game_id causes me the error... but my relations are set, what can possibly be wrong? why is the game object not nil when trying to create a rating, but nil when I want to create a review? -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.

Look in development.log when the method is called to see what params[:game_id] is set to. If you still can''t see it then put some print statements in the method to print the value of params[:game_id] and to show whether @game is nil. Also have a look at the Rails Guide on debugging which will show you techniques that you can use to debug your code.

Maybe I need an intersection table joining Reviews and games? -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.

If so it does seem to address my points. I don''t see what the reviews table has got to do with your problem as seems to be purely an issue of looking up a game id in the database.
