Rails 4 - Using Existing Postgresql Database Problem

Hi, I want to use existing postgresql database with rails 4 API, but I get the wrong number of arguments (1 for 0) message.

For example, I have an organizations table and it has some data in it. I want to use instance of this table as a model.

I created Organization model like this: class Organization < ActiveRecord::Base self.table_name "organizations" self.set_primary_key :id
end

How can I solve this issue?

Thanks, Bertan

I forgot to add equal sign between self.table_name and "organizations". <p> I am learning :) </p> <p> The code is now,</p> <p> self.table_name = "organizations"</p>

Thanks everyone in anyway :)
