I have a posts controller and a comments controller. Post has many comments, and comments belong to Post. The associate is set up with the counter_cache option turned on as such:
#Inside post.rb
has_many :comments
#Inside comment.rb
belongs_to :post, :counter_cache => true
I have a comments_count column in my posts table that is defaulted to zero, as such:
add_column :posts, :comments_count, :integer, :default => 0
In the create action of my comments controller, I have the following code:
def create
@posts = Post.find(params[:post_id])
@comment = @post.comments.build(params[:comment])
if @comment.save
redirect_to root
else
render :action => 'new'
end
end
My problem: when @comment.save is called, I get the following error:
ArgumentError in CommentsController#create
wrong number of arguments (2 for 0)
Removing :counter_cache => true from comment.rb completely solves the problem, so I'm assuming that it is the cause of this vague error. What am I missing here?
How can I save my comment and still have rails take care of my counter_cache for my post?
Thanks!

Notice the only line that doesn't have to do directly with the Rails framework is:
/Users/yuval/Sites/rails/blog/app/controllers/comments_controller.rb:6:in `create'
Line 6 is the following:
if @comment.save
EDIT 2: the @posts/@post is a typo on my end when writing a simplified example for StackOverflow, my actual application doesn't have mistake.
Inspecting @comment, it seems to be completely valid - it returns back exactly what I expect it to - a new instance of comment with whatever information I passed to it with build. It only blows up when the save method is called on it.
Thank you for all the suggestions so far. Any other ideas?
I ran through a sample rails app with your code and it all worked fine for me.
I would suggest debugging a little more like hurikhan77 is suggesting and see if it is just the @posts / @post issue that dain suggested.
Also, try creating a post and a comment in the console with some very simple content to see if it is working.
$ ruby script/console
# add whatever fields are necessary to create
> @p = Post.create(:title => "TestPost1")
# => #<Post id: 3, ...
# again, add whatever is necessary to create
> @c = @p.comments.create(:comment => "TestComment1")
# => #<Comment id: 8, ...
> Post.find(:last).comments_count
# => 1
See what that gets you.

This might be completely off the mark, but you use @posts then @post?
ArgumentError in CommentsController#create
wrong number of arguments (2 for 0)
You get this error because @comment is not the object you expect. Try to debug this by inserting:
logger.debug @comment.inspect
You'll see something unexpected and it should raise at least an eyebrow. This should be the clou that you assigned the Post.find(...) to @posts but later tried to work with @post.
