Question

i am trying to start my server after a db:migrate:reset and suddenly my SQlite3 server will not start. I get the error: ActionView::Template::Error (undefined method 'user_id' for nil:NilClass) when the server begins to render my datum/index page.
Before i did this i had actual prices in my database so the user_id could be detected and everything worked but now since the prices are gone i believe its giving this error.

Controllers – Datum & Price:

def index
  @prices = Price.all
end

Views – datum/index & prices/index:

<h1>Prices</h1>

<table>
  <tr>
    <th>User</th>
    <th>Date</th>
    <th>Price name</th>
    <th>Price</th>
    <th></th>
    <th></th>
    <th></th>
  </tr>

<% @prices.each do |price| %>
  <tr>
    <td><%= price.user_id %></td>
    <td><%= price.date %></td>
    <td><%= price.price_name %></td>
    <td><%= price.price %></td>
    <td><%= link_to 'Show', price %></td>
    <td><%= link_to 'Edit', edit_price_path(price) %></td>
    <td><%= link_to 'Delete', price, :confirm => 'Are you sure?', :method => :delete %></td>
  </tr>
<% end %>
</table>

<br />

<%= link_to 'New Price', new_price_path %>

I think i am doing this the wrong way as i am new to Rails. My goal was to duplicate my prices/index view so my datum/index is the same so i could then give both unique looks. How do i correct this issue and am i doing this correctly?

Weird, i think it was giving this error because i was using AptanaStudio 3 with the git terminal. I just restarted everything and it started working now as if the Database needed time to refresh itself. So in conclusion just restart everything and see if it works then.
