Posting some of the code around clistings_controller.rb line 45 would help. (although you might find you're doing this: clisting.category = params[:clisting][:category] rather than: clisting.category = Category.find_or_create_by_name(params[:clisting][:category]) or clisting.category_id = params[:clisting][:category] or some other error relating to passing the Category association a string... assuming your Clisting has an association to Category...) -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.
