Maybe Because I'm running rails 2.3.5 and the book uses something lower I have something different fixtures. I swapped in the ones from the book's source and now it works. I hope I get an explanation as to fixtures use as I go on in the book...thanks.
This is what was in my users.yml file: # Read about fixtures at http://ar.rubyonrails.org/classes/Fixtures.html one: title: MyString description: MyText image_url: MyString two: title: MyString description: MyText image_url: MyString I looked at the source code from the book and for users.yml, it is this: <% SALT = "NaCl" unless defined?(SALT) %> dave: name: dave salt: <%= SALT %> hashed_password: <%= User.encrypted_password('secret', SALT) %> -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.
