Question

I am creating a user via:

user = User.create attrs

Basically, it screws up by adding a ‘id’ field with value NULL which I am guessing evaluates as 0. So after the first user, I get an error that id must be unique. I can confirm that the attrs hash does not contain an ‘id’ field.

This is the generated SQL:

INSERT INTO `users` (`birthday`, `created_at`, `device_token`, `device_type`, `email`, `fb_id`, `first_name`, `gender`, `last_name`, `location`, `rstatus`, `updated_at`) VALUES ('1992-02-28 00:00:00', '2012-12-06 17:43:43', NULL, 'x86_64', '[e-mail]', '12593646569', 'Test', 'male', 'Once', Test, 'Single', '2012-12-06 17:43:43')

What’s going on?

Thanks

Your id column should be auto-incrementing, and your migrations would normally ensure this is so. If you can’t/aren’t using migrations, then fix it manually.
