Thanks superbnerb, i’ve done as you suggested, using migrations to set up the tables, and also a brief explanation about foreign keys in the comments table.

I also added a note about the latest version of rails, 1.2.5, which has some pretty radical changes which will mean that this (and most others) tutorial won’t work. Use rails 1.2.3 or earlier to follow this tutorial!

Love the tute, dude. I’m wondering if you could spell out your database portions to include setting up your db files in rails, now that you know you don’t have to use heidi or phpadmin. I’m ’stuck’ on this whole foreigntable_id thing… If you wrote out what your 001_posts.rb file looked like, then we could ’see’ what you mean.

Others obviously didn’t have a problem with it, and i’m glad you put up the tutorial, but it’s just could me and other rails noobs that may need it.
thanks.

You’re absolutely right! Thanks very much for pointing that out – i guess i got confused because he properly generates the scaffold a couple of minutes later, which automatically deletes the scaffold :post line from the controller at the same time that it puts in all the methods. But yeah, in between those two sections it would be broken.

I’ve updated the tutorial with an explanation about scaffolding. Thanks again.

Found what Fei was missing. You had forgotten to add the ’scaffold :post’ to blog_controller.rb

I was stuck there and decided to watch the screencast to see the source.

haha no worries, i was going to say that it’s definitely ruby script/generate rather than rails script/generate, for me at least. I just tried the rails script/generate in an old test project and it didn’t make any new files. I’m using windows, in case that’s relevant.

Thanks for reading :)
