mongoid update_attributes issues

hi,

i have two model CHALLENGE and TASK, CHALLENGE embeds_many :tasks and TASK embbeded_in :challenge

when i updating particular task attrubutes then it working

@ch_ts_update.tasks.where(:name => params[:name]).update(:is_complete => 1)

when trying to update whole task using challenge params

@challenge.update_attributes(params[:challenge])

instead of updating existing tasks it creating new tasks. I think, i m missing some configuration in mangoid.yml

thanks in advance!!!
