Slight muddle there: migrations change the database columns. Validations are
applied in the model before the object is saved to the database.
In the case of Snippets you have both kinds: there's a uniqueness constraint in
the database which is supported by a validates_uniqueness call in the model
class so that we can return advisory messages rather than just throwing errors.
I don't know what the current situation is with the vhost extension but your
fix to the validates_uniqueness call is right and you can remove the uniqueness
constraint from the database with this migration:
remove_index :snippets, :name
You'll find similar validations on Layout and User but perhaps those won't
matter.
best,
