Seems like you have wrong your associations. Can you post the source
code from both models and the tables definitions (just ASCII, no SQL
please)?
And maybe have a look at :
* http://manual.cakephp.org/chapter/models
* http://tempdocs.cakephp.org/#TOC78831
* http://bennerweb.com/node/16 (Understanding CakePHP Associations)
HTH.
