I'm on Rails 2.2.2 on MySQL with InnoDB table types. I'm running into a wierd bug where if I have two models in a transaction and the second model raises an exception, the first model still has it's ID set and it's new_record status set to false despite the row the ID is set to never existing.
The following is a console session showing this: >> client_user = new_client_user( :first_name => nil ) # Will cause validation >> to fail => #<ClientUser id: nil, login: "rene173744", email_address: "[email protected]", first_name: nil, last_name: "Sim", active: true> >> establishment = new_establishment( :brand => brand ) => #<Establishment id: nil, brand_id: 4, name: "Pretoria GrandWest", active: true> >> Establishment.transaction{ establishment.save!; client_user.save! } rescue >> false => false >> establishment.id => 10 >> establishment.new_record? => false >> client_user.id => nil >> establishment.reload ActiveRecord::RecordNotFound: Couldn't find Establishment with ID=10 <snip> >> Establishment.count => 4 Here's an explanation of the session: 1) I initialise a new client user, with first_name set to nil so it will fail a validation 2) I then initialise a new establishment model 3) I try and save both in a transaction block. The client_user.save! call raises an exception causing the block to roll back. 4) Yet establishment has an ID set to 10 and is marked as not being a new record. 5) As expected client_user has no ID 6) Calling reload on establishment throws an error because the row does not exist 7) Counting up the actual rows we see it is below the ID assigned to establishment (I did this a few times, the first time the assigned ID was 5, then 6, then 7 etc) Am I missing something or is this expected behaviour? --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.
