Hi,
I'm creating a simple Migration that adds test data to my database.

A Form has many Elements and every Element belongs to a Form. An element has
the mandatory columns name, type and value.

---

class AddTestData < ActiveRecord::Migration
  def self.up
    Form.delete_all
    Element.delete_all

    bert = Form.create(:name => "Bert's Form")
    Element.create(:form => bert, :name => 'First Name', :type => 'text',
:value => '')
    Element.create(:form => bert, :name => 'Last Name', :type => 'text',
:value => '')

    ernie = Form.create(:name => "Ernie's Form")
    Element.create(:form => ernie, :name => 'Your Name', :type => 'text',
:value => '')
    Element.create(:form => ernie, :name => 'E-mail', :type => 'text',
:value => '')
  end

  def self.down
    Form.delete_all
    Element.delete_all
  end
end

---

Gives the error:

Mysql::Error: #23000Column 'type' cannot be null: INSERT INTO `elements`
(`form_id`, `ordering`, `name`, `title`, `type`, `value`, `flags`,
`created_at`, `updated_at`) VALUES(2, NULL, 'First Name', NULL, NULL, '',
NULL, '2008-09-16 13:59:36', '2008-09-16 13:59:36')

As you can see, the 'type' column somehow isn't inserted.

I had similar issues when trying to add a column called 'timestamp'.

Best regards,
CmdJohnson
