This came up on the list alright. DataMapper can be pretty silent when you have odd errors. The only thing I would change/hackabout with is: remove :system => system from the constructor args list, and replace it with: sim.system = system sim.save My DM-fu isn't good enough, and the API should be handling that, but I still get a lot of my progress from trial and error. I would be racing to get proper debug output at this stage, trying to isolate the problem.
