Newbie: NameError in my first Scaffold generation

rubyonrails-talk

Hello

I have a MySQL Table named: sorties I have generated RAILS code using: generate scaffold Sortie Admin It succesfully geneates the code sorti.rb, with Sortie < ActiveRecord::Base and admin_controller.rb with references to @sortie and Sortie.find etc

But when I try to browse to http://localhost:3000/admin/list I get: "uninitialized constant Sorty" error, and its trying to load sorty.rb

Burried deep down the trace there is: ruby/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/activesupport-1.3.1/lib/active_support/ dependencies.rb:123:in `const_missing'

It would appear that RAILS is trying to singlerise 'sorties', to 'sorty', instead of 'sortie' I cannot find use of sorty constant anywhere in my code, so I am confused how to make the correction.

Any Help would be appreciated

Open up config/environment.rb and scroll down to the bottom to the Inflector section.

I added the folling, which now seems to make my applicaiton work.

Inflector.inflections do |inflection| inflection.irregular "sortie", "sorties" end
