Rails3 Mysql2::Error: Unknown column - ActiveRecord::StatementInvalid

问题:

I'm new to working with databases in Rails at this level, and I've looked for several hours but haven't found a solution to this specific problem.

Versions: Rails 3.2.9, Ruby 1.9.3, MySQL 5.5.28 (mysql2 gem 2.9.0), Mac OS 10.7.5

Error:

ActiveRecord::StatementInvalid in Action_figures#list  Mysql2::Error: Unknown column 'action_figures.position' in 'order clause': SELECT `action_figures`.* FROM `action_figures`  ORDER BY action_figures.position ASC 

Extracted source (around line #14): [list.html.erb]

11:       <th>Visible</th> 12:       <th>Actions</th> 13:     </tr> 14:     <% @action_figures.each do |action_figure| %> 15:     <tr> 16:       <td><%= action_figure.position %></td> 17:       <td><%= action_figure.name %></td> 

I generated the ActionFigures model and controller, but specified :position, :name, etc. later in the migration file:

class CreateActionFigures < ActiveRecord::Migration   def change     create_table :action_figures do |t|       t.string "name"       t.integer "position"       t.boolean "visible", :default => false       t.timestamps     end   end end 

And this in the model:

class ActionFigure < ActiveRecord::Base   has_many :pages   attr_accessible :name, :position, :visible end 

I've run rake db:migrate several times already, stopped and restarted the server, closed and reopened Terminal just to be sure it wasn't those things, but when I do:

mysql> SHOW FIELDS FROM action_figures; 

I get the following table:

+------------+----------+------+-----+---------+----------------+ | Field      | Type     | Null | Key | Default | Extra          | +------------+----------+------+-----+---------+----------------+ | id         | int(11)  | NO   | PRI | NULL    | auto_increment | | created_at | datetime | NO   |     | NULL    |                | | updated_at | datetime | NO   |     | NULL    |                | +------------+----------+------+-----+---------+----------------+ 

Questions:

1. Why are :name, :position, and :visible not showing up in the table?
2. How to I add them now?

回答1:

Did you add the table ... run the migrations .. and then edit the migration file to add position and visible attributes? If so, you'll need to add a new migration (or rerun the last migration)

Try this;

rails g migration add_position_to_action_figures position:integer visible:boolean  bundle exec rake db:migrate 

回答2:

If you specified the position, name, and everything else in the old ActionFigures migration file db:migrate won't pick up the changes in that file.

If you look at the schema.rb file in your db folder it has a version number. That number matches up with the number on the migration file that was last run. So when you run rake db:migrate it takes into consideration that number so it doesn't re-run the migrations before that. This happens so that tables don't try to get recreated and such...

You have a few options:

1. Do a rake db:rollback to reverse the change of the creation of the ActionFigure table if you haven't done other migrations since.

2. Do rake db:drop then rake db:create and rake db:migrate to recreate the table with the changes you made in the migration.

3. Delete the changes you made in the migration file and make a new migration using rails g migration add_name_and_position_to_action_figures name position:integer and run rake db:migrate to make the changes to your table.

There's other ways but from all I would just go with either 2 or 3 depending on the data you have on your database.

Hope this helps!
