As I think I mentioned in a previous mail, if you see 'nil' in an error message it quite likely indicates that something is nil. Since the only variable on that line is @category I think there is a strong possibility that it is nil. The reason for that particular error is that it is trying to find the name of the model that @category is, but as it is nil the error is shown.
