    params.require(:user).permit(:firm, :name, :last_name, :address, :post_number,

                                 :email, :password, :password_confirmation)
  end

end

回答1:

Presuming that your User model belongs_to :country, you'll want your form to submit the country_id, not the country. Try something like:

<%=  f.select :country_id,  options %>

You'll need to permit country_id as an attribute in your controller too.

回答2:

In your create method, you should be able to quickly turn the :country param to an integer like so: @user = User.new(user_params.tap{ |u| u[:country] = u[:country].to_i })
