You almost certainly do not want to mass-assign an internal part of ActiveRecord. :) belongs_to :teacher, :class_name => "Teacher", :foreign_key => "teacher_id" > belongs_to :student, :class_name => "Student", :foreign_key => "student_id" > > Another minor (not terribly relevant) style note: :class_name and :foreign_key are both redundant here, as the values specified are the same as the ActiveRecord defaults. Next steps for debugging this: - it would be useful to see the code for the TransactionAttributes module you're including. Perhaps something is hitting an internal method and making a mess. - showing the DB schema would help as well; again, having fields with names that clash with ActiveRecord's can cause peculiar behavior. - a full stack trace might shed some light; especially in the case of StackLevelTooDeep, the final line isn't always helpful. --Matt Jones -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.
