You have failed to show us two vital things, firstly which line of code the error occurs at, look in the server terminal window and you should see the full message and call stack. It should tell you which line of your code is generating the error. Secondly you have not told us the relations between the models (has_many, belongs_to etc). If you do not understand what that means then I suggest starting with a good tutorial such as railstutorial.org (free to use online) which will show you the basics of rails. In fact I suggest working right through a tutorial before starting your own app even if you do understand what I mean. Also read (and make sure you understand) the Rails Guides.
