回答1:

You need create this table by yourself

   create_table :products_categories, :id => false do |t| 
     t.integer :product_id 
     t.integer :category_id
   end

Warning, you need define the :id to false, because this table no need id column. If you have an id column, the table is invalid to be used on has_and_belongs_to_many .

回答2:

rails g model ProductCategories product:references category:references
