My project is in the early stages so deleting it and starting over will be no big deal. I want to do this because I ran into a couple of problems with migrations and rollbacks that didn't leave the system in the state I expected.
So, I completely deleted the directory that held the rails project and did a DROP DATABASE on the development, test and production databases. Then (I am using postgresql) I did the necessary CREATE DATABASE commands to recreate the necessary databases and ran a "rails new timecard -d postgresql" to start the project over. I edited the .../config/database.yml file to fix the database user name and password. Then I (re)created my first migration: "rails generate scaffold Tc_project project_number:string..." and then I ran the migration with "rake db:migrate" This did a strange thing: it ran all of the (seemingly deleted) migrations of the previous instance of the timecard application and created all of the tables! The problem is, none of the 'scaffold' commands were executed for any table except the first, Tc_projects, thus I have no controllers etc. for any of the tables except the first! What happened? Only 1 migration file exists in the .../db/migrate/ directory, how and why did rails execute all of the previous migrations, and, more to the point, how do I stop this from happening? Thanks in advance for any help. Fred -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group. To post to this group, send email to [email protected].
