this is what I get from the ruby console:
?> vmorder = Vmorder.new ?> creditcard = Creditcard.new ?> ?> vmorder.creditcard = creditcard NoMethodError: You have a nil object when you didn't expect it! You might have expected an instance of Array. The error occurred while evaluating nil. from (eval):1:in `id' from /usr/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/activerecord-1.15.3/lib/active_record/base.rb:1529:in `quoted_id' from /usr/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/activerecord-1.15.3/lib/active_record/associations/has_one_association.rb:74:in `construct_sql' from /usr/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/activerecord-1.15.3/lib/active_record/associations/has_one_association.rb:6:in `initialize' from /usr/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/activerecord-1.15.3/lib/active_record/associations.rb:905:in `creditcard=' from (irb):64
I really can't see what i'm doing wrong here, has anybody got any ideas?
Worked for me. Trying stripping down your models and migrations to their bare minimums in a test app and see what you get.
