That's the problem right there - this method is calling itself. If you want to define a getter / setter, you should either do this: def success @success end def success=(value) @success = value end --- Or this (preferred, if you're just storing a value, as above): attr_accessor :success > def errors > errors > end > > def errors=(errors) > self.errors = errors > end > end > These will break some things - ActiveRecord already defines an `errors` method + `errors=` assignment operator, and expects them to behave in a particular way (for instance, the validations assume that you can make calls like `some_model.errors.add(:some_attribute, 'message')`). I highly recommend reading through the guides (http://guides.rubyonrails.org/) or following some of Michael Hartl's excellent tutorial (http://ruby.railstutorial.org/) in preference to digging through Stack Overflow - the answers there are incredibly useful if you've got a highly specific problem, but they can sometimes miss the bigger picture.
