Hello all I''m having an issue with ruby on rails, and it not throwing an error where it should.

In my schema, a question has_many :answers. When the validations are run on a question, and one of the answers is not valid, then i get "Answers is not valid" coming out of errors.full_messages. I don''t want this, i''m already testing the validity of the answers and this is an ugly and uninformative error message. It looks like it''s the message i would get

Regarding validates_associated... Let''s say I have: article belongs_to author But for whatever reason, I want an article to also be written anonymously and therefore not require an author. Then I have: Article: belongs_to :author validates_associated :author But I DON''T have validates_presence_of. What I want to do is validate that an author is valid --if it is

HI all- I have two models, Story and Tag, and they are habtm. My goal is to show the errors for @story in a form on both new and edit. Everything works fine on new/create, but it fails on edit/update. First the models: class Story < ActiveRecord::Base attr_accessor :tag_string_holder #holds a CSV of tags ... has_and_belongs_to_many :tags, :uniq=> true ... def

Hi, I think I''m missing some fundamental information here so hopefully someone can help me. I have a model Club which has many members, members of course belong to a Club. I''d like to ensure that when a members is saved (saved/created/updated) only valid club_id''s are accepted. I have a Club model (simplified) like this: class Club < ActiveRecord::Base

Here is the setup: Windows XP, InstantRails, MySQL 14.7, Ruby 1.8.4, Rails 1.1.2 MODEL: class Office<ActiveRecord::Base has_many :users end class User<ActiveRecord::Base belongs_to :office validates_presence_of :office_id validates_associated :office <....other stuff...> end UNIT_TEST test/unit/user_test.rb def test_associations u = User.new u.office_id =

Hi, I''m struggling to get the validates_associated to work as I think it should be. I''m using: JRuby 1.1 rails-2.0.2 activerecord-2.0.2 activerecord-jdbc-adapter-0.8.2 My tables in MySQL: CREATE TABLE area_codes ( id INT UNSIGNED auto_increment primary key ... ); CREATE TABLE markets ( id INT UNSIGNED auto_increment primary key, ... ); CREATE TABLE

A person has a many company_branches and A company_branch has many people. This join is represented using a "contacts" table. I am using a legacy schema so i am forced into using non-standard rails primary keys. I am using the new through relationship in rails 1.1. p=Person.find(1) b=p.company_branches # gives this error: ActiveRecord::StatementInvalid: OCIError: ORA-00904:

Hi, I have a class (say Parent) that has many of two other classes, say FirstChild and SecondChild. These could look like this: class Parent < ActiveRecord::Base has_many :first_children, :dependent => true has_many :first_children, :dependent => true validates_associated :first_children validates_associated :second_children end class FirstChild < ActiveRecord::Base

I''d almost think the presence of "validates_associated" is causing the associated model to run validation twice. The associated model, Upload, which handles uploaded files and saves them, is saving each uploaded file twice in a row. This doesn''t happen if I remove "validates_associated" from the model it belongs to, or if I have the model save files during

Hello all. I am trying to create a self-referential has_many :through. I used the following site as a guide http://blog.hasmanythrough.com/articles/2006/04/21/self-referential-through but it still doesn''t appear to be working. I have two models. Person and Relationship. A person has many contacts (Which is another person) through relationships class Person < ActiveRecord::Base

By trial and error I seem to arrive to the conclusion that 1. Validation recurses through has_many by default and a root save! call raises an excepcion if some child no matter how nested is fails validation 2. Validation does not recurse through has_one by default and you can change this with validates_associated, in which case exceptions behave like above

Hello, I have a situation where an ''employee'' belongs to a ''department'' and have setup the relationship as follows. class Employee < ActiveRecord::Base belongs_to :department, :foregin_key => "department_id" validates_associated :department_id end class Department < ActiveRecord::Base has_many :employees def validate_on_update

Perhaps I''m misunderstanding what''s happening here, but I''m having a problem with not being able to disable the validation of an associated collection if that collection contains a new record. Example... class Person < ActiveRecord::Base has_many :email_addresses validates_associated :email_addresses, :if => Proc.new { false } end p = Person.new

All, I really dig using validates_associated on my models to automatically validate their associated objects. However, I find that I would prefer that the associated object''s error messages were propagated up to the original (object on which validate was called) object as they are, instead of the original object showing "X is invalid" where X is one of the associated objects.

Howdy, I''m a Rails beginner working on my first significant project with RoR. I''m trying to figure out how to validate a foreign key (you know, make sure the row actually exists.) However, validates_associated doesn''t seem to be what I want to use, nor does it work... -- BEGIN -- class City < ActiveRecord::Base has_many :schools belongs_to :state

I have two partials to deal with contact information. The Contact information uses single-table polymorphism. I want to be able to use save on Contact and set ''type'' manually, based on the type of form the user is filling in. This is saved as the value on a hidden field. class Contact belongs_to :person acts_as_list :scope => :person validates_presence_of :type
