@fred: You may be right, but in that case, the documentation is wrong. From http://api.rubyonrails.org/classes/ActiveRecord/ConnectionAdapters/SchemaStatements.html we have: > :id - Whether to automatically add a primary key column. Defaults > to true. Join tables for has_and_belongs_to_many should set > :id => false. And, as I hinted at, this IS a join table. What's interesting is that I cleared the table and rebuilt it -- no error. When I tried to update the entire table (with identical values), it gave the same error on the same record.
