Rails, has_many :through, undefined method `to_sym` for nil:NilClass
When you are calling .new
on tournaments it does not have an id
, so it will be nil
. Therefore will not find the user.
Also when you are remapping a model in a has many through like this you have to tell active record what the model it is looking for is. You do this with the :source
argument. Here is how tournament would work.
class Tournament < ActiveRecord::Base has_many :participants_tournaments has_many :participants, :through => :participants_tournaments, :source => :userend
