Treebook woes

Hi,

I've been following the Treebook Rails project along and have run into a few problems. After I added <div><%= f.label :first_name %><br /> <%= f.text_field :first_name %></div> + last_name, profile_name to index.html.erb, I couldn't get my rails server up, so I added protected_attributes to the Gemfile.

While this helped to get the server back up again, I get sign up errors now, saying that the email/password fields can't be blank, even though I've entered values for both fields. Also, when I try to search for the first user in order to delete it, user = User.first via IRB, I get this: " User Load (0.4ms) SELECT "users".* FROM "users" ORDER BY "users"."id" ASC LIMIT 1 => nil ".

That's probably one of your issues. Try using 3.2.13 and following along -- that's what the lessons are on and will give you the least amount of trouble.

Cheers, back on track. Also, I must say that your trademark grin still gets me every time, hands down the best things on Treehouse, you should look into getting that thing patented. Keep on truckin'!
